For me, The prop decision will depend upon an ability to get specific 

information from Aerocomposite on the vibration differential compared to the 

Hartzell. I would prefer the Aerocomposite 2 blade if the vibration 

reduction is significant.  I personally don't believe in the long term 

viability of a wooden prop in consideration of my type of flying and in the 

area I live. (High Moisture, 12% equilibrium moisture content) I just had a 

catastrophic engine failure in a Cessna 310 where the jug connecting bolts 

vibrated loose and the #1jug, part of the exhaust and part of the case 

departed the airplane in flight. Both the FAA and Avemco said that is was 

"not uncommon" in both the Continental and the Lycoming engines.
