Could I shoot FMJ's?

I have been thinking of trying Easton Full Metal Jacket, but when I looked at their spine chart, it looks as if 340's might be underspined for me. I shoot a 29.5" arrow, 100g head, 4" helical feathers. Other info. in sig. What do you all think? I don't want to waste the money if they won't work well.

According to the Easton chart, I am on the border of either the 340's or 300's. I shot the Easton Epic and Excel's at 340 and splitted the ends of each arrow behind the insert area on the shaft. I talked to my proshop and he recommended the 300's FMJ for a little better durability out of my Hoyt. No problem so far and pull rather easily out of my targets too. Can't wait for the deer season!!

Can you run a little shorter arrow? I know my QAD HD will let me go as short as 26 3/4" and I have a 29" draw length.
