Aaron, I think you will be disappointed with the acccuracy
of the plain base 358439 long before you reach 1800fps. With some adult incantations and chicken guts I can get in the 1400s before accuracy goes south but that's about it. YMMV.
Oddly, I have shot these into railroad ties traveling in the neighborhood of 1350fps and they didn't come apart. Yet in flesh they seemed pretty violent. Somewhere I have an old pic of one I dug out of a railroad tie... will see if I can find it.
