I am guessing it will be 9/32. Go to the Easton websitefind your arrow and selct "more" under the tech and specs area.

+2 on 9/32. As brucelanthier said you can go to the Easton website or you can measure your shafts but most 340's are 9/32

Actually most carbon shafts mic out at about .295" or closer to 19/64. Yeah, try to find points of this diameter. The smaller diameter ones such as ST Axis are 17/64" so Easton RPS points work very well on these.

Most people just go ahead and use 9/32" points on Epics and such. Some companies such as Gold Tip make an insert with a reverse taper that uses a 5/16" point and reduces to 19/64" at the shaft.
