So it's between the prc and the patriot extreme. I guess I shouldn't of sold my prc set, I thought it would be a while before my new build. Anyone have opinions on which are better? It's kind of hard when they are both good to .660, I'll have to check out the price difference.

My understanding is that the springs themselves are both manufactured by the same vendor, and the only difference between the 2, are the associated hardware (reatainers, locks, etc.)

I went with the Patriot Extremes due to the super 7 locks that come with them.

In the grand scheme of things though, I think it's 6 of one half dozen of the other. If you can find one for less, get it. If they are the same, get the partiots due to the super 7 locks.

My $0.02.
