What do you have? Most manufacturer sites will tell you what they weigh.

Shoot around 420-430 and you will be good to go for elk.

I shoot the Easton Excels that are 10gpi and are 28.5 inches.  I'll look it up on their website.

My arrows are at 380gr. and have taken several elk and a moose with only a sigle shot on each. Its all about placement, double lung or heart shot and it wont matter how much your arrow weighs.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!
