agree with others....50#, leave long...bareshaft and trim 1/2inch at time until good.

The lighter spined shafts left long but I'd trim 1/4" till you get close then trim 1/8". Reall easy to miss by going 1/2" and 1/4" cuts. You'd be surprised how much difference an 1/8" will make.  Learned that lesson the hard way. I was bare shafting off the knuckle though. YMMV.
