Default Front of Center question

OK Bow and arrow gurus...
I use a Real Tree MFX 400 with a draw weight of 55 lbs. My arrows from nock to cut end of arrow is 28" with the broadhead 29 1/4" Right now the arrow weight is about 405 grains.

I have a 8.5% front of center using a G5 Montec 100 grain broadhead. Last night I added 100 grains to the broadhead and the FOC went up to 15.3%.

If I change to 125 grain can I don't think I can expect much difference?

I am considering a change to a Magnus Snuffer 150 grain or a 170 grain. I don't want to go over 15% and ideally around 13.5% - 14%. Which do you think I should go with... the 150 or the 170?

well the 150 is going to bring to about 12 to 13 percent foc and the 170 will probly bring you to around 14 to 15 percent so i would go with the 170 for more penetration cause your bow is set at 55 draw weight and your arrows are 405 grains so i would go with the 170
