From 60x strings. Getting ready to buy a new set of strings and cables for my Realm. Honestly don’t know the difference between the standard BCY and the BCY 452x. They’re the same cost. I’m sure both are fine but would appreciate any feedback or opinions on which to get.

I’m partial to Vec99. Catfish customs. Amazing strings. The vec99 is awesome. Waxless

Ok thanks guys. Ermine I’ll check out the Vec99. Waxless intrigues me. :-)

VEC 99 also. There an extremely slick string with no wax. I’ve been shooting 3 bows with VEC and zero movement once tuned.

GAS-X and 452X material. 60X makes a great string just not comparable to a Gas-X string!! No creep, no peep issues they are basically shot in after 15 shots. Shawn

The one set of strings I got from 60x were like rope compared to the others I’ve had..
After a couple of those generic adventures, I started making my own strings and never looked back.
452 for my compound and BCYX for my recurve. I get another 8 Fps from my recurve strings over the 60x and 3 rivers generic strings- all else equal.
