Great!  Now if you want to shoot up those 500's try one cut as short as you can cut it and then try a mid to upper 100's point.  You will have to build out your strike plate 1/8" or so.  For weight  you can fill them with something.

Also don't forget to try some different point weights with the arrow you have set up so you can make sure you are not over spined and getting a false reading from riser contact.

For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be refused if it is received with thanksgiving.

i have been shooting the same arrows with 175,200 and 125 gr points.  i cant tell much difference between the 175 and 200 but the 125 went nock right.  i still cant get the nock high out, but i will get some shafts put together and then tune the fletched shafts.  i am going with the 200 gr point as there is a wider array of heads to choose from.   it is still throwing the shafts pretty quick for a 525 gr arrow.  now i just gotta get used to shooting a shorter arrow and not having it in my field of view as much as i did a full length shaft.  hopefully i can try my new set up on a hog to try penetration very soon!
