So a bow released as a proto, to some fanboys, is the greatest thing since mashed potatoes. No disrespect to any of the aforementioned, as they all hold my respect, but up to 80 yards, I will put up my 2 old school Scorpyds against the barrelled bows. With the the arrows I use, the tried and true platform shoots as well or better than all the pics of the already legendary X1, yet it is yet to be in the hands of the average real world shooter such as myself. 8 gens of cams, also do not trip my trigger, as truth be told, my Velocity with the gen3 shoots, better than anyone we have at the range, as we are all just average "Joe's" who hunt, and shoot for fun. Ok wouldn't pretend to be a bmiller, but at our range, sub 1.5" at 80 yds gets the oohs and ahhs, and I don't need the barrel to do it.
 
I did not see any Orion 150lb listed. Was this an oversight? Reason I ask, is there are two listed on ebay; one as Orion 150 and the other as Orion Extreme, with 150lb in specs. First looks gen 3 cam, 2nd, gen 5 cams. It's also likely the listers have them listed wrong.
I've seen ebay listings of both vents and orion's, that according to our own Ventilator, were never made in the configurations listed. I would put my faith in Ventilator being correct over any ebay seller. If in doubt, shoot him a message, I'm sure he would know.
 
I don't know why you aren't allowed to start a conversation with Vent, but there have been sets of limbs for sale, even on these forums. So it is not impossible for someone to change original configuration. My vent 175 extreme came from Jerry aka service center, limbs are 175 and cams are gen 7. So authorized service anomalies do exist.
