What would this arrow weigh?

Carbon Express Heritage, 31" BOP, with 175 grain tip, 3-5" sheilds, and nock. I'm guessing a tad under 600 grains, am I close?
I've got a 71# - 72# longbow on the way and am thinking my Gold Tip Big Game shafts are going to be a bit stiff. Even if I go to a lot heavier tip. Don't know for sure where this bow is cut to centerwise, but I'm thinking to center but not past... Boss T/D, 62", 68# @ 28", and I draw a tad over 29".
Thanks all!

CE 350 Heritage = 12 per inch X 31 = 372gr
Insert = 11gr
Nock = 8.7 (let's say 9gr)
3x5" fletching (just weighted them) 12gr
175gr tip
Total= 579gr
Hope this helps

That is about what I was figuring on the weight Mark. Will probably have to find some more weight somewhere... weight tubes maybe.
Thanks all, Jeff.

Jeff: I've used weed eater line (square cross-section) in Heritage 150's.
I folded it back on itself at both ends, more at the tip for weight there. The folding cuts down on it rattling around inside the shaft.
