The Beatdown has a strong but smooth reaction with a 2000 surface. I have both my Beatdown and Brawler drilled similarly with a pin above my fingers. My Beatdown is at 2000, and it has a strong but controllable overall reaction. I left my Brawler in box condition, and it has a stronger downlane motion. I would think that you could drill it a little stronger, but I would keep them similar if you like the reaction of your Brawler. Good luck with the Beatdown.
