our hex4 TX40 limbs on a 19" riser did a respectable 205fps AMO. 9gpp, 30" draw finger shot.
here is the thread.:
with some great quotes from Flight shooter and longbow guru OL Adock (pokenhope)
"Oh, The highest performing ILF limbs we've tested were Border's also, beat G3's and WinWin's by 4-5%. Sid and his boys are doing thing right...O.L. "

and
"If the numbers you had were 197, that had to be for 28", my old notes shows AMO of 205 (30")which fits in with the best of the best. The BD also had the highest se/pdf we've seen to date"

When looking at bow speed you need to know draw length, Arrow weight and poundage on fingers. or else the numbers are down right useless.
We had a guy shooting 5.8gpp at 30" from a 60" recurve quoting 254fps. it was a 100lbs at 30". you can add some 6-8fps for finger shot vs mechanical release
Arrow weight is vital to the equation.
But we have yet to see a hungarian style bow keep up with a recurve under normal shooting conditions
