50# bear montana @28in, I currently shoot a  CE 150 with about 180 on the end, but I am going to beef it up to around 600g before next season.

My arrows weigh 515 grains. I could be wrong but I think the EASTON XX75 Gamegetter 500's are 10.6 gpi.( The 500's are the same as 2016's)

Any where between 8 and 12 for hunting depending on bow and what broadheads I want to use.I am not too concerned about where in that range they fall as long as the bow shoots them pretty quiet.
