For aluminum arrows, the first 2 digits are not the actual outside diameter in 64th", but the nearest 64th".

2219 and 2216 are close in OD, but not identical. Calculating based on converting 22/64th to thousandths might be precise enough for inserts if you work at aligning them carefullyand take care of any sloppiness, but it would NOT be precise enough for a press-fit item like a Lumenok - you need to be within about .001 for a proper fit.

The Lumenok that fits the Powerbolt is .297" - at least that's what the package says, so the Powerbolt would probably be .298-.299 ID. I haven't tried fitting them into a 2216, but I'll have a look tomorrow and let you know.

BTW, the Laser II and Excalibur Firebolt Lumenocks are .301



Maybe someone with a precise set of calipers can actually measure the ID of some 2216 and 2219 arrows and let us know?

The inserts and nocks for the power bolts and the 2216 xx75 alloy arrows are not the same. There is .017 difference, they would probably be too loose in a 2216. Hope this helps.

IF you're looking for some flat end drivers for a 2216, I have some plastic ones that I would be happy to send you some to try gratis. Just PM me your address and I'll mail you some.
