I'm going to guess around .500 but you didn't say your draw length, or if is cut to center. 3Rivers Archery has a pretty easy to use (and free) arrow calculator. I think Stu helped design it. It'll allow you to get a baseline of different options. It will get you very close and your form and other personal factors associated with the bow and the shooter can be fine tuned with slight tip weight changes, strike plate build-out, and brace height. Just an option. You're likely to get several different answers.

Of you're going to cut the shafts I would go with a  500 and get points from 125-200 and see what flies best

Rymancat is about spot on from the looks of it and I would play with point weight

I am partial to the arrow dynamics shafts and would be inclined to recommend the Trad light, just leave it long.
