That weight and speed will have plenty of energy to kill anything you would hunt in Montana at reasonable range. Going to a 340 spine is probably going to increase your accuracy. 2 blade coc head will also increase penetration a bit. Not that you need it.

Your bow's IBO speed isn't that bad @ 310fps.  The limiting factor is the 27 inch draw. 

The Magnus BH's are good!  I used to shoot them in 125gr version before I switched to 150gr BH.
