Is there anything better out there to replace the rubber bumpers, mine only lasted about 250 shots and i turned them about every 10 shots!!

String-Tamers. A machinist can modify an S-5 to have a .375x1 inch pin instead of the Excal ball to accommodate a StringTamer. Yes, I have done it (without a collet) for DM as an experiment.
Danny Miller can supply the StringTamer rubbers for the modified shaft. Call DM and ask him if you need more information.

:idea: Did not make it clear enough that there is enough stock on the S-5 to erase the ball and resize the stem it sits on without installing a pin.

What he said lol. I have 50 or 60 shots on a set of his style stops and no noticeable wear on the rubber baby buggy bumpers.
