Field notes

This is the 500 spine of the Victory VAP 166 Elite V1, a micro (.166 in ID) shaft with a.166 in inside diameter. In this spine it weighs 6.1 grains per inch. A 500 spine sits at the light band, for lower draw weights and youth-to-adult setups.

Because the bore is.166 in, it takes the Victory IP nock #4 (8 gr) and the Victory VAP 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 500 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.
