They are of comparable diameter to the Axis arrows. What works for them should work for the FMJ'S.

I use the carbon collars on the 340s. I think I used 1916s to foot 400s.

I do the same as jrstegner. The carbon collars work great.

I foot mine with 1916 (400). I have a few that the tips bend (field tips) even when shot into animal targets. After footing them I've shot into a cinder block without any damage. Now if I wouldn't miss (and lose) the arrows would last me a long time.

I foot my (400's) with 2018's the 1916 might fit tighter but the 2018 works fine also.

how much does that footing add in weight?

I use the same footing as the Axis.
