Prime Inline 1 Specs and Mod Chart
The Prime Inline 1 (2022) publishes 31 in axle to axle, a 7 in brace height, a draw length range of 26 to 30.5 in and 40 to 80 lb of draw weight. A 7 inch brace height on a 31 inch riser, built around Prime’s parallel cam concept for cam lean control.

Draw length modules and how adjustment works
Inline cam with ten module positions in half inch increments.
The published range is 26 to 30.5 in , which is 4.5 inches of total adjustment. That range is the single most important number on this page, because a bow set outside your correct draw length cannot be tuned into fitting. If the bow is at the extreme end of its range for you, look at a different model rather than living with it.
Three terms get used loosely and mean different things. A rotating module stays on the cam and is unbolted, turned to a new setting, and re-tightened, which you can do at home with a hex wrench. A module swap means buying a different module for the draw length you want, still usually without a press. A cam change means a new cam and a press visit. Check which applies before assuming a used bow will fit you.
Measure your draw length before you shop, not after. The wingspan method is wingspan in inches / 2.5, rounded to the nearest half inch, and our draw length calculator runs it with a sanity check. Have the result confirmed at a shop with your actual release aid, because switching between a wrist strap and a handheld release changes effective draw length by roughly a quarter to a half inch.
What the speed rating really means
Prime does not publish a single IBO figure for the Inline 1, which some makers avoid because the rating varies with the module installed. Compare it against similar bows on geometry instead: axle to axle length and brace height tell you more about how a bow will shoot than a speed number does.
Who the Prime Inline 1 suits
- Hunters who value a forgiving brace height and Prime’s cam geometry.
- Archers who want a bow that holds very steady at full draw.
- Prime published a per-module speed band rather than a single IBO figure, so speed claims vary by source.
Brace height is the quiet forgiveness spec. At 7 in, this bow sits at the forgiving end of the scale, which suits developing form and long holds at the cost of some speed. Axle to axle length works alongside it: see short vs long axle to axle bows for how the two specs interact.
Setting up arrows for this bow
Arrow spine is driven by your draw weight, arrow length, point weight, and cam aggression, not by the bow model alone, so there is no single correct shaft for any bow. Run your actual numbers through the arrow spine calculator and check the result against the spine chart before ordering a dozen shafts. Remember that spine is dynamic: a heavier point or a longer shaft both weaken it.
Safety minimum. At this bow's 80 pound peak weight, total arrow weight must stay at or above 400 grains, which is the industry standard of 5 grains per pound of draw weight. Shooting lighter leaves too much stored energy in the limbs rather than the arrow, which risks damaging the bow and voids most warranties. Build your real total with the total arrow weight calculator, counting shaft, insert, point, nock, wrap, glue, and vanes. Have any setup work you are unsure about checked by a qualified pro shop.

Frequently asked questions
What is the draw length range on the Prime Inline 1?
The Inline 1 covers 26 to 30.5 in, a span of 4.5 inches. Inline cam with ten module positions in half inch increments. Measure your own draw length before you shop, because a bow set outside your correct length will never anchor consistently no matter how well the rest of the setup is tuned.
What draw weight does the Prime Inline 1 come in?
Published draw weight is 40 to 80 lb. Prime published limb deflections spanning roughly 40 to 83 lb, and retailers commonly listed 60 and 70 lb options. Choose the weight you can draw smoothly while seated and without raising the bow above your head, not the highest number you can muscle once. Overbowing is the most common setup mistake in archery, and it damages form long before it damages anything else.
What is the minimum arrow weight for the Prime Inline 1?
At its 80 pound peak weight, the hard floor is 400 grains total arrow weight, based on the industry minimum of 5 grains per pound of draw weight. Going lighter leaves too much energy in the limbs rather than the arrow, which risks cracking limbs or cams and voids most warranties. Check the bow's own documentation as well, since some manufacturers set a higher minimum.
Is the Prime Inline 1 still in production?
No, the Inline 1 has been discontinued and is no longer in Prime's current lineup. It remains common on the used market, which is exactly why the specs matter. If you buy used, budget for a string and cable inspection, since strings age whether or not the bow has been shot.
How we choose: we compare published manufacturer specifications, verified owner reviews, and pro shop guidance. We do not test gear in person. Draw weight and arrow spine affect safety, so follow your bow manufacturer's specifications and have setup work checked by a qualified pro shop.
