Ramp rate on XE-R is 49
From a previous point on a Cam Motion custom we were able to determine that intake rate at 50 and exht at 51
XE rate is 53

So according to that cam it was in between. ( The difference in intake /exht made us assume that this was one of the reasons for the FM cams to have a little of both worlds {good down low/ well mannered and kick *** numbers up high})

Like Ed said, it depends on who's lobe it is from Cammotion. Most of the Cammotions I have seen were just like predator said, so the XE-R would be a little steeper, but not much.
