I am considering both of these drills for my new shock and awe and was curious which one would be a more long and snap type drill??

any comments would be appreciated..

3 3/8 i would think would hook more in oil

and other would be longer

Both are control drills as far as MB placement.
A better skid snap drill would be between Pin 4.5-5.5 and CG between 3.5-5.

Hey Jim,

If you go with the 3 3/8 by 5 1/4 from Mo's sheet it will do just as advertised (sharp breakpoint).  But the 4 1/2 by 5 1/4 should give you more length and snap (that is how I am going to drill mine).  This is from the morich drill request form for pin placement.

3-3/8"  Maximum Flare (Maximum Overall Hook)
4-1/2"  Maximum Flare (Slightly less flare in oil; Slightly more in dry)

NO...both are sharp break point - hook-set MB placements based on PAP....Control drills are in the 6.5-7 inch range...
