Easton makes a FMJ in a heavier wall and weight called DANGEROUS GAME.  They might be too stiff for your set up though.

I shoot 27" draw and similar weight and this year's elk arrows are Grizzlystik Sitkas with the brass inserts, wraps, 3 - 5 1/2" sheild cut feathers, and topped off with 315gr Grizzlystik Ashby broadheads.  Total arrow weight is right at 600 grains.

Hi Guys,
Thanks everyone for your input.  Great suggestions and other opinions have helped me a lot to narrow down some of my choices and to put together a great hunting arrow.  I appreciate all the perspectives, definately helps to see the good and bad of going with a heavy hitter or a lighter weight arrow and flatter trajectory.  Anyone else feel free to give more suggetions.  Thanks again.

For my 54 lb at 26" elk set up I have CE Heritage 150s with 100 grain brass inserts, 3 5" feathers then stuff the 27" shafts with 30" of clothes line rope inside.  On the front I shoot a 2 blade Magnus and total weight comes in around 640 grains.

Interesting combos.  Always like to see what others are shooting.  I shoot CX's.  I started with 250's because Stu's calc.  said I couldn't put enough weight as I wanted up front, but I have trouble with the calculator.  I found that I can shoot the same weight combo up front with 150's and 250's if the 250's are 1.5" longer than the 150's.  Whether your bow is center cut of not will also affect the arrow spine, so start long and shorten the shaft until you get the right length, no matter what shaft you end up trying.
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
