Brownell Fury String Material

[8ptbuk]

Anybody tried any Fury from Brownell to build strings with ??? How does it compare to brownells other materials ? Thanks

I haven't tried it yet as its fairly new. Its smaller dia. so it makes a rounder string. Its also one of their strongest materials. You will need to add a little overall length cause it will twist up short on you & once it sets on very little creep its like steel cable strong

How does it compare to XS2?

I have spoken with Rob at Brownell. The single strand breaking strength is upper 80#. Recommended strand count would be 40 minimum for Matrix.

Whats the safety ratio on strands per string ? Why would you discount all Matrix models?

I'm pretty pleased with XS2. With a 36 strand string I can do 3 bundles of 12 instead of 2 bundles of 20.

Although it is smaller, it seems you trade off some strength so it isn't clear there is a reason to use it over XS2. I read something online suggesting it is the same as XS2 except smaller. Don't know if that is accurate or not.
