They are "approximately" 500 spine. MicroFLites have more mass than carbon and are more tolerant of differences / do not need as much tuning as carbons to balance out head weight, shaft weight, fletching weight, spine, etc. Those should shoot really well from a 42-47#@28 recurve or longbow.

First we need to know how long they are, measured from the bottom of the nock groove to the back of the point.

MicroFiltes had a chart for hunting arrows and another for target arrows. Here's the page from their catalog with recommendations but I've seen other charts from a later period with some differences.

The difference in "target spines" and "hunting spines" is the use of heavier heads for the hunting arrows. Back then it was generally figured at 125 grains for hunting/field tips, and about 65 or 70 grainns for a target tip, thus creating different spine requirements. You have to work the gozintos to your dynamics. I use #7 fiberglass with a 43# bow, 28" arrow, and 145 grain tips for perfect flight using a low stretch string. Those same arrows will fly great from a 47# Browning Wasp if I use a Dacron string.

I shot 7's from a 44# cut to 29 1/2" a long time ago. >>>>-----> Ken
