Here is the reason for my question.
Defender carries the Amsteel Blue (they have a silver/gray custom color they carry). "AmSteel-Blue is an upgrade design from Original AmSteel and it offers superior strength in the smaller sizes" and yes it is made out of DyneemaŽ SK-75 fiber. On Samsons site they rate the elastic elongation at 0.7% at 20% load.
Over at Colligo they are asking $4.84/ft for the 9mm Dynex Dux. While at Defender they are asking $1.99/ft for the 5/16 (closer to 8mm) Thats a HUGE savings!
My rig is 5/16 316 with wire splicing (Lyle's specs call for 9/32 and 1/4). This will take out over 65lbs aloft....how sweet it is!
