600 grain for sure.  A good weight to ensure the bow is safe, and will penetrate very well at that arrow mass.

Another vote for the 600 grain arrow. At that overall grain weight, besides penetration, the bow should be quieter too upon arrow release.
Blacktail TD Recurve: 66", 42# @ 30". Arrow: 32", 2212. PW: 75 Grains. AW: 421 Grains. GPP: 10.02

If it's flying well when fletched, 600 grain for sure. I agree with every thing already said, quieter and better penetration. Good luck to you!

Man, Oh man.  The question is what are you hunting?  If it's elk yea, 600 is ok, but your in AZ.  If your hunting mule deer or javelinas you better be a darned good shot to wack one at 25, 30 yds with a 600 gr arrow.

Depends, but the one that is just shy of 9gpp. is fine for all but the largest game like moose. I would choose the 465 as I like a flat arrow and with a sharp head would kill anything I am gonna hunt and offer me another 5 yards in shooting. I shoot between 8-9.5 gpp. most of the time. I am shooting an ILF rig this year and at 7.5 gpp. and 211fps. I have no doubt it will handle any deer I shoot. Shawn

Decide which one suits you shooting style the best and pick that one.
