Easy answer, TC. The Omega is the only one of the 3 that you can silent cock the hammer and it comes with a lifetime warranty. I tried alot of different ones at the Bass Pro and a local store but the Omega was the ticket. If you get deer in close the silent cock is a life saver, and if you ever need it a life time warranty, a life time is a long time. I used it once for my Hawkins after owning it for 10 years and was amazed at the way Thompson center takes care of you so quickly and nicely. Omega all the way, hands down.
