You can also make it yourself: it takes 45 Fletching and gives 46 Fletching XP, using Maple longbow (unstrung) and Bowstring. There are 2 other recipes below. Where the materials come from: Maple longbow (unstrung) (made with 45 Fletching); Bowstring (sold by Uglug's Stuffsies for 100 coins). Making ten takes 10 × Maple longbow (unstrung) and 10 × Bowstring and gives 460 Fletching XP. Reaching level 45 Fletching takes 61,512 XP in total; the Fletching calculator counts the actions and materials to any target, and the Fletching guide has the Ironman training route. One recipe uses Maple longbow: Maple longbow (sighted). It is worn in the two-handed weapon slot at tier 40 as ranged gear; compare it with every other piece on the Two-handed weapons list. Maple longbow is available on free-to-play worlds too. It is tradeable on normal accounts, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade for it, so the sources on this page are the whole list. High Alchemy turns one into 768 coins, which is 512 less than the shop price, so buying it to alch does not pay.
