Give me a week or so and Ill extract some data from some of my notes. Know that I have not looked at all of the Apollo series that Hireko has reintroduced. Just too damned expensive if the shafts don't sell.
I can tell you categorically that Royal Precision Rifle shafts are the most consistent. Flighted Rifles, Rifle Lites, etc., any of their stepless shafts.
Right now, I'm off to Utah to pick up a horse

Hi Corey How bad are the new Chinese Apollo's steel iron shafts? I had a lot of trouble trying to use this shaft ... confusing. I'm going back to using TT. A lot of Tier I automotive parts are being sourced to China. Thanks Harry S www.Golf54.com

Gee, I have to wonder about TT's QC process. Until the recent reintroduction of the Chinese Apollo's, they were consistently the worst shaft I measured for residual bend. Some worse than 40 thousandths of run-out.
