Talking Thoughts on Excal Vortex vs. Equinox?

The local Cabelas has some Excals in the Bargain Cave. Tags say factory repair of words to that effect.

One is the Vortex, which I believe is 200#

The other is the Equinox, which is the 225# if I'm correct.

Any thoughts on these? Both are marked down to a very reasonable price, which is not always the case for the Bargain Cave. The other option is waiting until spring and buying new from my local dealer, which is what I probably should do, but that will also mean no new vert bow to myself for a retirement gift. Decisions, decisions. Any help is appreciated.

Have owned both. Great bows. Vortex is a bit easier to **** for me, easier on strings and targets. More than powerful enough for any game that walks this US of A (and Canada)>
