It's a tough decision, and unfortunately it's not like I can go to Cabelas and try them both out. I have tried a Forbes model 20b that I wasn't too crazy about the balance with, but in the same token my Forbes model 24b doesn't balance out as nicely as my Nula model 24.

Mass weight isn't an issue, just a preference. I've worked my whole life and can probably lift more than an average guy, I've noticed that balance means way more than weight when it comes to freehand shots, at least for myself. Maybe a call to Melvin is in order but I know he doesn't like to make any decisions for his customers.
