Reality Check

[JohnV]

Thanks for the replies. I'd much rather have gone with synthetics, but for the cost. Per Colligo's online catalog, the 11mm uncovered dynex dux, stretch equivalent to 5/16" wire, is $9.35, almost 2x the cost of Loos 1x19 wire. Covered dux, which I'd definitely want, is substantially more than that. Hardware costs are roughly equivalent. So it would end up costing me about twice as much.
Too bad, too, as the weight advantage is significant.
