Speed of your shooting set up?

Here is what I think will be an interesting question. What is the speed of your HUNTING setup? No guessing here. Only list your speed if you have shot it across a chrony and no brands here. I'm only worried about the speed.
My hunting setup shoots at about 265 fps. Actually all of the guys at my camp which shoot cover about ALL of the major brands on todays market were within + or - 10 or 15 fps of each other.

302 on the chrono.
What is your set up? This sounds REALLY high for a hunting set up. Not doubting what you've said but trying to figure out a way to pick up some speed.[;)]

not really high, high though. I have a friend that is shooting a Tribute 310 with over 400 grain arrows.

The less stuff you have on the string you'll pick up some speed

That is not all true, it is somewhat. However, there are things called speed knocks, or you can use standard knocks. Place them down from the cams about 4 inches, you will increase your speed between 3-5 fps.
