Jeff, its funny we're talking about this as my phone rang today and it was a gentleman from Victory. I sent an email to them asking about their spine consistancy, components, etc. He called me and talked with me about all of this. They seem like a great company!
He noted that with the Victory shafts, their spine is consistant 360 degrees. They've tested this. He also said that all of their shafts have the label on the the "top" of each shaft so they're more precise.
From what I'm reading they're basically Gold Tips under much stricter tolerances.

And, the nice thing is, they're priced right.
