Ahoy !

I am asking for comments comparing the performance of these two models. I understand this is subjective and many factors obtain yet, none-the-less, I'd welcome the feedback.  I am concerned about the performance such as stopping power, feel, "snap" and such.

The 605 has a snazzy QR & adjuster to facilitate maintenance but, these are of secondary importance at present.

Thanks
