    Axis Easton St Carbon infused FMJ's

    I got a dozen of these for Christmas. I have been previously shooting the axis st 340's. Has anyone used these? If so how did you like them. My guy at the pro shop here said it would add about 50 grains and it would really only affect flight out past 50 yards. What are your guys thoughts?
