what point weight/Foc are you shooting?

Just thought it would be interesting to see what people are using. I use 175gr points which gives me about a 15% FOC.

100 gr brass inserts, 125 gr steel adapters and 200 gr Ace broadheads is my heaviest, 425 front weight 26% FOC.
Share your knowledge and ideas.

I just got done building up some Axis 400's with 125 gr Woodsmans, 100 gr steel adapters and 100 grain brass inserts.  That puts 325 on the nose with a total weight of 625.  Haven't checked the FOC, but it should be over 20%.
So don't wait until you retire to go hunting and fishing.  Don't even wait for your annual vacation.  Go at every opportunity.  Things that appear urgent at the moment may, in the long run, turn out to be far less so.

I have been using 150 gr BH wich gives me 12.2% FOC. Thinking of going to 200gr up front for 15%FOC.
I will give thanks to the LORD because of his righteousness and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.
