Default Merc Maximus Vs. Px-5 Props Anyone Try Both?

I'd like to see some input from someone who has tried both production five blades on the same boat.

I have a set of 5 blades and like them because they get on plane easier and the cruise speed at 3000 is 50 mph.I gained 6 mph at 3600 rpms.I know a guy that is selling he's set of 30's for about $1300 per set.the px5 won't work on the Active Thunder.

I could probably use 30's or 32's. Do they have too much bow lift for the AT?
