Adding weight to PinPoints

Bought my Pinpoints. 150gn for Fatboys. My present Fatboy points are 160gn. Any ideas how to add weight to the solid Pinpoints. I have some magnets at 6gns each that I could superglue to the flat end of the Pinpoint then stick them in with a little hotmelt as per usual. The magnets hold well, but will the superglue? Any other suggestions welcome.

I have built a small jig from brass tubing into which the magnets just fit. That sits in a short length of Fatboy shaft. I will glue the magnets in pairs in the brass jig, then when dry glue them to the flat end of the arrow point using the 2 part jig, accuratly centreing the magnet. What glue to use? Probably slow epoxy. Superglue may become brittle.
