Can anyone offer any experiences or insight as to how the RX1-Orange compares to the Ascent balls?

considerably weaker. the ascent balls are much stronger than advertised if drilled properly.

Totally agree.. For the price, the Ascent line is much better than advertised. Almost 2 balls for the price of one. Nice combo as well.

Thanks folks! I appreciate the info. Now its decision time...

also if you are planning on drilling them for lighter oil i would be very careful how far away from pap you drill them. i dont short myself in the rev department and 5 1/4 on my ascent pearl was slightly weak and over/under without a hole. i wouldnt go more than 4 1/2 away from pap with them to stay clear of over/under

Excellent advice. Thank you.
