Using 200 psi my new break barrel shot a 10d dart through 3" of phone book and through a 5/8" sheet of plywood behind it.

Audacity from my 1 foot chrony. How fast was it?

fast.
Thats all we can say with a picture.
Highlight the beginning of the first peak to the begining of the second peak. audacity tells you the length in seconds at the bottom.

I' d say roughly 650-700 fps according to your file...took 0.0015 second to make 1 foot, ==> ~667 fps.
