String material has been the biggest improvement in trad archery equipment in the last 50 years, IMO.  Well, maybe the introduction of carbon into arrows and bow laminations as well.  Regardless, I stayed with B-50 for a long time, but the low stretch materials are so much better, quieter and faster, that I made the switch a few years ago and won't be going back.

Have used it many years and loved it. I switched to 450plus because of the low stretch it has. I do use fast flight on my target indoor bow but not for hunting, my bow is alot louder with the fast flight. For the amount of shooting I do I found the b-50 did stretch an inch if not watched often. Good luck!

I use it.  B-50 still makes a bow shoot better than I can shoot it.
