I see the 78's are .001 straight, and the 75's are .002......I know I said I want the best, but is that the only difference?
Ok ... the alloy is different ...... the XX75'shave a 7075alloy a 96,000psi and theXX78's have a 7178 alloy and are rated for 100,000psi
Thanks for saving me the trouble of looking up the actuall numbers.[:-]I knew the alloy was better but I didn't know a number to quantify it.


The X7's are actually a little better overall BUT not for hunting because they are more brittle.Something to do with a quenching process I believe that makes them brittle but makes them as accurate as can be.
