to 314 or not to 314 that is the question?

hello,

hi i want to buy a predator shaft for my viking and not sure if i should because i think 314 shafts should be for 314 butts ? not sure, need help !

thanks....

I use a 314 shaft on a McDermott butt. It was the best choice I ever made!

I think you will find out that most people that participate in this forum will tell you that is not true....I would guess there are as many 314 shafts out there on other cues as there is on Predators..... :)

I have a 314 on my Viking, which I purchased from Seyberts which plays fabulously. My only problem with it is the tip, which hasn't lasted very long. It's scheduled to be replaced shortly.

Other than that it plays great.

We sell about 4 times as many shafts as we do full cues, so there are plenty of Predator shafts on different cues as opposed to full Predator cues.

McDermott just started carrying our shafts to offer on their cues, and I believe Seyberts received the first batch, ask Sid about it.

yep, we have them ready to go for the Mcdermotts. Black collar 10 thread, Black collar with a gold ring 10 thread, and the Mcdermott quick release joint is also here. Thanks for the plug Neil,

Here's a silly question. How much does it cost and how long does it take to match up the Viking ring work for a VM25? I know that I would have to send you my entire cue for it, but I'm just curious.

$200.00 for the matched shaft - 2-3 weeks for the customization.

i just received my predator custom 314 from Viking for my viking vm13 yesterday. I hit for several hours and after the first hour everything felt so much better. My bridge seemed more solid. My hits were firmer. I'm still excited today about the way it felt. I may get one for my viking vm26 too. Dennis :D
