Maybe an Excalibur employee will let us know. I'll bet it's one of the thumb hole stock versions. I have the Exocet 200 but it's the only Excal I've shot.

I miss the wooden stock like on the Wolverine but I can find nothing else to dislike about the Exocet 200.
Honestly, with money being tight, I went with the Exocet 200 as I thought it was 2 much money for the extra 15 fps to go with the Exomax, when I knew a Vixen would do pass a through on deer.

I prefer the conventional stocks over the thumb hole, I can reach safety with thumb to click safety off, just before shot, left or right handed. I have no experience shooting with a thumb hole stock, just handled them in a bow shop.

Ibex. Compact for ease of handling in a tree stand, especially with heavier cloths.

I think it boils down to what one the indiviual prefers.A bigger stronger person might like an exomax while a smaller person could go with the exocet,JMO!
I dont think you can come up with a real answer to this question.

I also read somewhere that the Phoenix was the number one seller.

It's just like choosing a firearm, all up to the individual. Equinox for the newbie here. :D

All Excaliburs are great tools. As to which is the most popular (i.e. sells the most) depends on marketing and public perception. It certainly doesn't prove it is the best.

I have a Vortex. The thumbholers do require more hand movement to release the safety. This is a really good 3D Xbow.

Exocet in one variation or the other would be my guess. 165lb-175lb-200lb. The 175lb works perfect for me everytime.
