Default RE: TBM Props?

Bob's correct. They are not the same prop, the TBM is about twice as thick of airfoil as a JXF, which is a Xoar. I showed mine to LS Larry he couldn't believe the difference, VERY different props. I called and ask TBM if they had a problem with their props, like maybe mislabeled, they said no. My Brillelle 366GT would only turn the TBM 6630 rpm, I was going to call Scott for help but decided to try a Vess 22A on it ,I got7300 rpm right away.
