The code of honor is a sweet heavily oil ball that needs oil to hook. Out of box first game 300. The house shot I usually play around 18-20 with my feet and swing it 12-8 with the gamebreaker 2. With the code of honor pin palm.  I was around 26 with my feet and swung the ball about 20-15. Rolled strong and continuous. If I got to the dry to early it seemed to burn up, but in oil it is a beast.

Both the code of honor and gb2 are both out of the box finish. The gb2 is drilled pin below the bridge slightly higher than pin palm. Similar weight hole and cg location as code of honor. For me the gb2 rolls earlier and doesn't have a drastic backend. It reads the midlanes and makes a smooth backend motion that is smooth and not jumpy. The code of honor gets more length, doesn't respond to the midlane to quick, and once it makes it's turn, it an aggressive turn.  It isn't a strong snap, it's more of a smooth continuous backend, pretty smooth.  I have thrown this on dry a couple of times and it tends to burn up, it need oil to hook.

Any idea if this ball is stronger than the Columbia Wicked Encounter (another EBI family ball)?

Yes
