I have not used those setters but I have used a lot of cheap caulking guns and I can tell you from experience those handles bend up pretty easily. I have had them fold under the pressure of trying to squeeze stiff caulking out of the tube with one hand. I'd easily spend the extra few bucks for the RTS especially if I were setting strong 330 or 280 sized springs. Originally Posted By: The Beav I field tested those RTS setters before they came out on the market. It's a top of the line setter. X2 I bought the cheaper version. That pair didn't last a week and I'm a small, small timer. Really good customer service as MTS took them back without issue. I'm sure I didn't set more than three 330s when they stopped compressing all of the way. The RTS is still pretty high on the wish list. I've been using 6' of mule tape with a loop. Mule tape is the flat rope that they pull cable, wire or fiber through pipes. It's made of slick synthetic fiber that doesn't stretch. Better than most rope and will fit in a t-shirt pocket.
