30.5" 55/75 .400 spine carbon and increase point weight anywhere from 225-275 grains depending on how your string is set-up.

I think that I would go with a .340 spine and add another 50 to 100 grains on the point end to get a heavier arrow. That should put you close to a 600 grain arrow.

Out of a simular setup I shoot cx heritage 250 (old type) cut 30.75 with 150 grain broadhead. Riser cut might be different for you though.
