I think a 2016 would be very weak even with a 125gr point off a 60# bow. You might have better results with a 2216 with a 125gr

I use then with my samick red stag 60# but that's at drawing 26" with a 28.5 inch arrow and 150gr. head. Those fly great for me. But I also did a home made weight test on my bow and I believe it only pulls around 57#@28" If you have a shorter draw like me it could work but if you draw 28 or more you would be better off with something stiffer.Hope this helps.

That setup flies great out of my 45lb k mag that is 44 at my draw. I'm no expert, but i think they will be weak.

The 2016 spines 62# (for a 28" draw).  Might work, but with the broadhead you need to subtract some spine weight.  You didn't say what your actual shooting draw length is--some people do not draw as much as they think they do when actually shooting rather than just doing a static draw.  If you are actually drawing 28" at 60# you may need to go to a 2018 with the broadhead.  I feel sure that will work well.
