High FOC for POC???

I'm trying to get some POC ready for hunting this year.  I read Dr. Ashby's studys on high FOC (18%+) and how they penetrated better.  He said that he couldn't get wood arrows to fly well with high FOC (maybe he couldn't get a high enough spine for heavy front weight).  Does anyone use heavy tip weights to increase FOC on wood arrows and do you feel that those arrows penetrate animals better?  I seem to get good flight (to my eye) with 200 gr. points on POC but I can't seem to find field points that heavy (I filled 160s half full of lead to get it to 200 gr.).  Does anyone sell 200 gr. field points and/or blunts?  190 gr. BHs are no problem.  Thanks,  Doug
