ILF Limb Questions

I am thinking of buying an ILF bow.  Either a 17" or 19" riser.

I saw the chart that was posted for riser and limb combinations for a recurve.

Is there a similar chart for longbows or is the answer always just one limb length longer?

Also as you mix and match limbs, is there a limb rating standard - riser length?
i.e. If I buy 40# limbs, are they 40# at 17" riser?  What are they at 19"?

Thanks

Rule of thumb, 40# on a 17 will be 2# less on a 19. Add 2# on a 15" riser. But a lot depends on the risers limb pocket angles. But it's close.....   :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki
