This is the 400 spine of the Victory VAP SS Elite V1, a micro (.166 in ID) shaft with a.166 in inside diameter. In this spine it weighs 8.6 grains per inch. A 400 spine sits at the mid range, the most common hunting-weight compound band.
Because the bore is.166 in, it takes the Victory IP nock (.166 in, 8 gr) and the Victory Shok TL aluminium insert (50 gr), and it threads to the 8-32. Those do not change with spine; only the GPI move across the table.
Spine is a starting point, not a guarantee: a 400 from one brand can differ from another. Read your exact draw weight and arrow length on the maker chart or bare-shaft test before cutting a dozen, and keep the finished arrow above the 5-grains-per-pound floor.
