Default Axis full metal jacket

Any one here have any knowledge on the Easton Axis Full Metal Jacket shaft? I was on Easton's site and cannot figure out what shaft to use (if there is one) for a 60 lb, single cam, 28" arrow length, 100 grain tip, using a release. Any one? Am I a goof that cannot use their shaft selector software? Is there a better shaft for what I want? I am using it for hunting deer.

Pretty good shafts. Not as tough as the Axis or Black Max though. Personally, I would shoot one of those 2 over the FMJ.
