I've only ever tried three aftermarket strings. Winner's Choice, Prostrings, and Bucknasty, priced in that order high to low. IMO Bucknasty was just as good but at nearly half the price of Winner's Choice. In fact, the workmanship of his servings was even better.
Half the price? I don't think so hoss, go do a price check. Last one I ordered from from bucknasty, the set was $60 for a binary cam. I can get winners choice for $90 for a binary cam.
Gib makes good strings, no doubt, but sure not half.
