Victory HLR Elite Arrows (6-Pack)
Victory HLR Elite (V1) arrows are built for bowhunters who prioritize speed, power, and consistency at long range. These small diameter shafts feature a .204-inch inside diameter and are constructed from high-modulus carbon with 1.5K Carbon Weave MaxxKe Technology, promoting fast recovery in flight and an ultra-flat trajectory. The 50-grain SHOK insert enhances penetration and durability. Each arrow is digitally spine aligned, weight matched within +/- 0.5 grains per dozen, and hand fletched for optimal vane placement and adhesion. Finished with a nano ceramic coating, these arrows also pull easily from targets and deliver superior downrange accuracy.

Specifications and what they build
Everything below is either the manufacturer's published specification or this engine's output for a standard build — a 28.5″ finished arrow, 100‑grain point, HIT‑style insert, three vanes at 2° helical, on a 70 lb / 29″ compound rated 335 fps IBO. Nothing here is a rule of thumb and nothing is copied from a chart.

Which spine you need
Spine is not a property of the shaft you like, it is set by your draw weight, your finished arrow length and your point weight acting together. Read your draw weight down the left and your finished arrow length across the top. Green means this product is stocked in that spine, amber means the shaft is made in it but we do not stock it, red means this shaft is not made in that spine at all and you want a different one.
| Draw weight | 26″ | 27″ | 28″ | 29″ | 30″ | 31″ | 32″ |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 50 lb | 400 | 340 | 340 | 340 | 340 | 340 | 340 |
| 55 lb | 340 | 340 | 340 | 340 | 340 | 300 | 300 |
| 60 lb | 340 | 340 | 340 | 340 | 300 | 300 | 300 |
| 65 lb | 340 | 340 | 300 | 300 | 300 | 250 | 250 |
| 70 lb | 340 | 300 | 300 | 300 | 250 | 250 | 250 |
| 75 lb | 300 | 300 | 250 | 250 | 250 | 200 | 200 |
| 80 lb | 300 | 250 | 250 | 250 | 200 | 200 | 200 |
The grid assumes a 100‑grain point. Going heavier up front weakens dynamic spine and pushes you one column left; going lighter pushes you right. The spine what-if tool publishes every coefficient behind this table, including how closely it agrees with Easton's, Victory's and Gold Tip's own charts.
What it is cleared for
Graded against the five energy floors we publish, each tagged with whose number it is — three are Easton's charted figures, two are ours and labelled as ours. The full reasoning, with the archive citations for the chart Easton retired in 2012, is on the kinetic energy chart by game class.
| Spine | KE (ft‑lb) | Small game 15 · judged |
Deer / antelope 25 · charted |
Elk / bear / boar 42 · charted |
Heavy game 50 · derived |
Big game 65 · charted |

Common questions
Which Victory HLR Elite spine do I need?
Read it off the grid above rather than off the bow's name: at 60 lb and 28 inches it picks 340, which this shaft is not made in, at 70 lb and 29 inches it picks 300, which this shaft is made in but we do not stock, and at 80 lb and 30 inches it picks 200, which is stocked. Spine is set by draw weight, finished arrow length and point weight acting together. This product is stocked in 200, 250, 400 spine.
What does the Victory HLR Elite weigh per inch?
GPI runs from 7 in 400 spine up to 9.9 in 200. A bare 28-inch shaft is therefore 196.0 to 277.2 grains before any components go on. Those GPI figures are the manufacturer's published numbers, not our estimates.
What is the outer diameter of a Victory HLR Elite?
It changes with spine, which is the part most charts leave out. This shaft spans .251–.271". The inner diameter class is .204, and that is the number that decides which inserts, collars and nocks fit.
How heavy is a finished arrow built on a Victory HLR Elite?
On the standard build we use for every comparison — a 28.5-inch arrow, 100-grain point, HIT-style insert and three vanes at 2 degrees helical — this shaft finishes at 338 grains in 400 spine and 421 grains in 200, with FOC running 15.1 percent down to 12.1 percent as the shaft gets heavier. A stiffer spine gives you a heavier, slower, higher-momentum arrow; a weaker one gives you speed and higher FOC at the same point weight.
Is a Victory HLR Elite enough arrow for elk?
At the standard build the spines here make 81 to 82 ft-lb, against the 42 ft-lb floor Easton charted for elk, black bear and boar. Every one of them clears it. That 42 is Easton's number, not ours. Energy is a floor rather than a plan, though: on elk, momentum and FOC do as much of the work as kinetic energy, and these builds sit at 0.50 to 0.55 slug-fps.
Where do these numbers come from?
GPI, outer diameter and inner diameter are the manufacturer's published specifications. Our verification note for this shaft reads: Verified 2026-05 vs lancasterarchery.com/products/victory-hlr-elite-arrow-shafts. ±0.001" straightness, ±0.5gr/dz. Same shaft as HLR. Everything else on this page is computed by the same physics engine that runs The Forge — IBO-corrected launch speed for the stated draw weight, draw length and finished arrow mass, Easton-method kinetic energy and momentum, and a spine model published in full alongside its measured agreement with each manufacturer's own chart.
Specifications are the manufacturer's published figures; every derived number is this engine's output, reproducible from the inputs stated above. If a spec here disagrees with the manufacturer, the manufacturer is right and we want to hear about it.
