I am just amazed what this bow is capable of! And now one pin out to 40yds it's night and day compared to my old bow when I needed three pins out to 40yds!
Lightning fast and zero hand shock

Your bow looks great. Why the g5 over apa sights and same for stabilizer.

APA sights are just cobra archery sights! i had a cobra sidewinder sight on my last bow I liked it but wanted something new, i have always loved the look of the G5 sights! and i got it for $50 on archery talk forum.... looks new
next sight will probably be a CBE or Axion product
and with stabilizers i got the NAP apache cause it had awsome reviews, perfect for hunting, i didnt need a stab for reducing hand shock cause the Mamba has next to none and last it looked killer on the bow, on my last bow i had the limbsaver s coil, great stab but wanted something new thats also what apa sells

you owe it to yourself to go to Pipestone Archery west of Millet to try the Viper Nano out. One shot and you will know. Very smooth and quiet. $890 tho starting but the rest seem "well the rest". Want something different? this is it.

Depends on what draw length you are.
Im 28 inches shooting a prototype APA that is faster than the m6 and Im shooting 64lbs and a 500 spine. I would put it against any bow out there or anyone who tells me that it is under spined.

I picked up an M8 in January. 31 inch draw length, 50-60 pounds. Shoots as fast as my Hoyt did at 72lbs.
These bows are very sweet shooting. 1000 shots through it and then some, string may have stretched a little but the bow is still in tune. Tried a grim reaper practice head last night and it hit POI with field tips (which is what I would have expected). Screwed in a Montec and same thing out to 40 yards. I know that I`m likely just lucky, but it made me smile. Only a few minor tweaks for this rig.

I agree Neil , Ive got shoulder problems but my M6 set at 59 #'s is shooting 299 fps at 29" draw . Pretty well one pin out to 40 yds , that is if I'm smart enough to remember a slight hold over and under with it set at 30 ..LOL.

I've had my Mamba for a few years now and I love it. Hit's like a ton of bricks. If you've seen the APA commercial the Hunting Chronicles did. The bear in the tree was one of mine.
