BCY-X for me. There's a bowyer who has a concern about it, but to meet his string requirements you'd have to use no more than 8 strands of Dynaflight '97 or the equivalent.
FWIW, I bought a Samick Journey (retails for $150) five years ago just to test BCY-X. It's still going strong, drawn to 31" shooting arrows that are 8.5 gpp.
I'm headed to the High Country Shoot in a few hours, back next Wednesday. I can help you out on BCY string material and serving if you want.

Just looked up prices for 1/4 spools
Prices have gone up bit since the last spools I bought.
