"Little Mo", the Hunter 56 I ordered in January, arrived yesterday. The Zebrawood/Walnut riser with Purpleheart/Maple accents is very striking.
the limbs are Walnut with Zebrawood fades.
It's very smooth with no stack at my 29" draw. I had this bow tillered for 3 Under draw, and it's noticably more quiet for it.
At 53#@29", it zips a 495 grain 30" 2213 with authority. The Hunter 56 isn't known as a burner but I would guess it's delivering 175-180FPS with this arrow, plenty good enough. I'll chronograph it in the next day or so.
The only drawback I can see is the small sight window, but there's no getting around it as the riser has to be short. It might be a problem for a split finger shooter, but isn't an issue for 3 Under. There's no using an elevated rest BTW, this riser is meant to be shot off the shelf.
Here are a couple photos...
