For the past few years I've been using 8190 on my Bob Lee Classic takedown and RER XR.  Less stretch and seems to quiet the bow better than B50.  On my older Bear bows, though, I still use B50.

Sorry James,  I didn't realize 60x was a string maker.  I have never used his as I make my own.

Ordered a Dacron string over a weekend for a vintage recurve from 60x....it shipped Monday and I had it Wednesday. Nice string. Speced olive/yellow twist with a brown serving and exact string length....that is what arrived and it shoots very nice. A+.
