I shoot 68 pounds, 30" draw, at a speed of 282 fps from a beman 340. I shoot 4 blade, 100 grain muzzy, and they work great.

Magnus Stingers or standard vented glue in magnus heads. For turkeys, vortex. All of them 100 grain.

I think the weight of the head should be determined more but foc then speed. Have you ever calculated the foc for you arrow. I fear if you drop to a head that is 85g you are likely to end up with an unstable arrow in flight.

If you want more info on foc there is a great article on this site.
