I use story points per Sprint on a 3 Sprint moving average weighted by capacity to account for things like vacation. Works pretty well.

Of course, importantly, points cannot be directly tied to time or people will start biasing their estimates. I use "complexity" on a Fibonacci scale.

Edit: works pretty well until someone does something to effect capacity mid Sprint like making everyone work extra hours.
