I've been trying for some time to purchase a BK Rush (REVO) Break cue new or used without luck and it looks like I'll just have to wait (3 months probably) if I'm set on getting one of those for a reasonable price. There are dealers out there that have 29 and 30" BK Rush break shafts that I can get fairly quickly, and I'm seriously contemplating purchase of one and using it with my current break cue butt (McDermott and I have an adapter to uniloc), or of purchasing a break cue butt (not Predator BK Rush REVO break, but possibly a different Predator break cue butt) to use with the BK REVO shaft. It seems that opinions are split regarding how much difference the butt of a break cue will make. So, I'd appreciate what you folks have tried and what you think regarding this. How different will it be depending on the butt? What kind of butt would yield the best results? Any other thoughts on the matter? Thanks for any opinions/help you provide.
Best Cue Butts for Break Cues

it really doesn't matter and just should feel good for you.
Some like light break cues, some heavy, some forward balanced, some backward balanced.
I don't think that the butt technology of the Predator break cue changed since the BK2 and they are all C4 butts (4 pieces radial laminated which is just the same for most of the Predator cues). they just have different decals and different sport grip color and design.
If the Revo break shaft weighs around 4oz, I would look for a butt that is under 14oz that can take weight bolts in case you want it heavier so you can test and find what works best for you.
