Just looked in the AO Archery Ad section this morning. Good Mamba Air (left handed) on there. No, I don't know the seller but the bow would fit your price range.

As for the arrows, I believe that traditional arrows and compound arrows behave slightly differently coming off the string. For this reason, I wouldn't look at using the same arrows between the 2 styles of archery (but I don't shoot traditional)

I do know that compounds subject more forces to the arrow upon release. While I don't know the numbers, I would suspect that you could shoot a "compound" arrow out of traditional equipment, but I wouldn't trust a "traditional" arrow out of a compound.

FWIW, my 70# Hoyt is firing a 525 grain Easton FMJ 300 and has no issues with pass-throughs as long as I do my part and place the arrow in the correct spot. They might be heavy but I like the added momentum factor the FMJ's give. Plus, they pull from targets easier than most of the carbon shafts I've tried.
