17" Tradtech Titan II with 60lb Samick R3s at 60" AMO.

17" Junxing F261 with same config as above. Also got fiberglass laminated wood cores I made myself using Tradtech mounting hardware from Lancaster Archery at 60lbs and 70lbs draw. With a 19" Titan III riser, these limbs produce a 62" AMO rig. Foam cores @ 203 FPS with 700 grain arrow and my own glass/wood limbs send em on their way at 196 FPS. Sweet shooters POA at 20 yards with a shotgun RDS mounted on the side adaptor.

Sound like a good deer killer. I got a bunch of recurves, I have been hunting with a hoyt durado setup with a couple different hoyt limbs last few seasons.

Deer, hogs, elk, they are definitely cookpot fillers for certain. Foam limbs can be a magnitude louder than wood/bamboo cores but that can actually be mitigated a bit by adjusting the brace height. My foam limbs seem to like a slightly higher brace height of about 7-7.5". That sacrifices about 10 FPS of velocity but it is negligible as modern recurves are FAST. At normal hunting distances, even the loudest limbs I got do not seem to cause any off or missed shots as the arrow was already impacting by the time the game reacted to the sound of the bow. My homemade limbs do their best with a 6-7" brace height and produce a slightly softer thump like an empty 2L soda bottle being whacked against a mattress.

If you got the Dorado you might wanna think about getting a Hoyt Satori as well. They are actually identical risers with the only difference being the Dorado is a proprietary riser that is built to only take Hoyt limbs and the Satori is an ILF dovetail riser that is compatible with every ILF limbset on the market. With the Satori, you can put Samick R3s on them as well as one of my favorites, the Tradtech BlackMax 2.0s which are glass, carbon, and wood-core. The latter is awesome for tradbow competitions. Draw is absolutely smooth and even after a whole day of shooting more rounds than can be counted, you feel no exhaustion at all.

I do have ILF risers, I have a wood Sky riser and a Hoyt pro vantage "warf" riser to take ILF limbs. I swapped out some of the inserts from ILF limbs and bolted them to the durado. You can do the same to original durado, gamegetter limbs also.
