G'day just wondering how many shots y'all get from a looped 1745 tube set. Preferably using cotton butchers twine to tie to pouch.

I wouldn't be surprised at 1000 shots if you pull 500% or less.

I agree with Henry. Looped tubes are probably the longest lasting set ups, but how you attach the pouch (too much or not enough stretch, too tight etc.) and and fork attachment methods all have effects on band/tube life.

Don't know how many, but I shot a few years ago all summer long with looped 1745's and a waxed constrictor knot at the pouch and did not have a failure ..... the rubber was changed as the bands were not as springy after about 3ish summer months.
