Oak longbow
Oak longbow is a tier 10 free-to-play two-handed weapon for Ranged, with a high alchemy value of 96 coins. The simplest way for an Ironman to get Oak longbow is to buy it: Lowe's Archery Emporium in Varrock sells it for 160 coins, and 3 other shops stock it too.

Ironman verdict
2 monsters drop it, and the best one is also the easiest: Lumpnose (level 7), at 1/8 (about one every 8 kills). You can also make it yourself: it takes 15 Fletching and gives 14.7 Fletching XP, using Oak longbow (unstrung) and Bowstring. There are 2 other recipes below. Making ten takes 10 × Oak longbow (unstrung) and 10 × Bowstring and gives 147 Fletching XP. Reaching level 15 Fletching takes 2,411 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 Oak longbow: Signed oak longbow. It is worn in the two-handed weapon slot at tier 10 as ranged gear; compare it with every other piece on the Two-handed weapons list. Oak 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 96 coins, which is 64 less than the shop price, so buying it to alch does not pay.
