I'd try a 2016/2018 depending on how heavy a point you want.

2018 with 145 tips will cut 29 bop or 29 1/2 bop

Matt I have a wesley with the same specs of yours. I shoot a 2018 at 29" with 250 grns up front and they fly like darts.

I believe Howard Hill shot his elephants with aluminum arrows.

I would give 2018's a try,I shoot a 29",2018 with a 175 gr.point out of my 70",reverse handle Wesley 60#@28.They fly great and will give you an arrow of around 580-585 grs.
