I had / tried to sell a wood 15 inch ILF riser that I paired with OMP reaper limbs. The one I had is a copy of the OMP carbon Z.

Because the limbs were rated for a 17 inch riser I gained two pounds.

So in my case the bow was 42 @ 28 and with medium limbs it was a 58 inch bow. At my DL of 29 I was right at 45 pounds at full draw.

The riser has a great grip for repeatability. It also has enough heft to keep it from floating around at full draw. I shot it off the shelf and it worked great.

The only downside was that it did not have quiver inserts. But I suppose you could put them in if you are handy.

I sent it out to RMS gear to try and sell it, but there were no takers there either. So it should arrive back at my house today. I guess that is a sign that it’s a keeper.

There are photos of it on here in the bow section if you scroll back a ways.

 

Port, I did see that combo and I know it was top of the heap. I really meant why isn’t anyone really pushing these bows. They have a 66” takedown LB in the Viper lineup for 2025 that I think would be a very popular bow here. Not to mention a pile of one piece LB’s and recurves. Should be all very reasonably priced as well.

 

I am just thinking out loud here but the taxes coming from China are probably very high. I bought my riser used from RMS gear, so I just paid sales tax for Minnesota, which I think is ridiculous but it is what it is.

 

the build quality is simply amazing for the coin you pay - I have had a lot of well known customs whose fit and finish was nowhere near as good .
I'll end up buying one
