Is that 250 with a carbon express arrow?
What are goals for the arrow as far as weight and FOC? If you liked what you had last year I'd leave them as is or at most add the 50gr insert and drop down to a 100gr head.
My first question is why do you feel you need such a heavy arrow? Your setup with a 100gr tip is going to carry 70ish # of kinetic energy. The arc on that almost 500gr arrow isn't worth it. Now if you were shooting traditional that's a different story but your new modern gear doesn't need it. Maybe you don't want to have to buy new broadeads along with your arows and 125s are what you have. The extra 25 in that broadhead is plenty of extra foc and I don't see the need for the extra 50. My arrow is 408gr at 29inch shot out of a 63# bow. It packs a punch worthy of any north American big game animal. Now I'll step down off my soapbox and say...You will need a stiff arrow. If your not sure yet about the extra 50gr you can get a 300 and cut at 30 and trIm it down until it tunes. Personally I shoot an arrow 1 inch shorter than my draw length. So you should be able to trim 2 inches off if it isn't stiff enough at 30 inches. And you can back some # out of your draw after that to help tune your arrow also. Always error on the side of slightly to stiff if the chart says you are on the edge of 2 spines.
I am a huge fan of Goldtip XT Hunter arrows. Tough as all get out and great tolerances. These are in the similar price point as your Black Eagle. The 300 spine XT are 9.3gr per inch and their chart says 300 all the way for your setup. With your broadhead at 125 and generic numbers for insert, nock and fletch you should be in the 430gr area cut at 29in. That is what I would do and you will be very happy with Goldtip arrows.
