    XRS vs SST

    Gent's,
    I have been trying to swap my 300R to someone with a 250R due to High school fishing league rules limit HP to 250.
    I have been having conversations with a gentleman that is interested in swapping entire boats rather than just the engines.
    I can't find much info on Bullets website to compare the 2 models side by side.
    I am hoping some of you gentlemen that know Bullets better than me could give me some info regarding the differences between my boat and his.
    Mine is a 2021 XRS with the 300R loaded with every option. Finest baddest ass boat I have ever seen or ever road in.
    His is a 2019 SST with a 250R.
    Thanks in advance for any info on the differences between the 2 boats.

    If you are going
    from an XRS with a 300
    to a 250 on the same boat you will lose
    about 8-12 mph

    I used to own an all black2018 SST with a 300R. It will fish more like a 20 XD due to the way the front nose is laid out. And is fairly narrow. That being said my partner and I always fish from the front together with out much issues. Were used to it. The ride is not as good as the old 21X boats but better than a 20X boat. Best speed with a 300 was 97 with a 31 hydromotive. I would think the 250 will hole shot a little better and only lose a couple 3-5 on the top end if set up good. I have never fished a XRS for direct comparison. The SST is a good driving boat. The o ly reason I sold mi e was that I bought an Allison.

    Thanks for all the info guys. Sounds like I want to stay with my XRS. It may not be quite as fast but it's a perfect combination between speed/handling & deck space.
