50g of added weight...

sounds like too much - is it? There's an used Head LM2 at a local store, I was hoping to extend it 0.5" (to 28") and make it heavier and more HL. The problem is that stick is only 270g and I like heavy racquets. Even if I'm only taking it close to 315-320g to spare my shoulder (current racquet at 340g), it would still require 50g of added weight to the handle. Would it play fine, assuming I could make it? SW would go up because of the extension and head tape, so not a problem.
