I am not sure how quite to answer your question because you are comparing brands rather than individual models within each respective brand. If a company has a large assortment of shafts, they will usually have a very diverse range. Base shaft selection on your physical requirements (strength and tempo) for the weight and, flex and stiffness distribution of the shaft.

Sorry
Do they have a shaft that compares to the rifle?
Is the quality as good might be a better question.

Thanks for the clarification. The Rifle is unique in that is goes through other quality control checks that no other shafts do. The Rifle is stepless, but it is frequency matched to ensure the ultimate in consistency. That is what you are paying for, along with the shafts being pre-trimmed and packaged in sets. The closest shaft in the Apollo line may be the Balistik. It too is a stepless design and approximately the same cut weight. A clubmaker with a frequency analyzer could make a very consistent set by going through the sorting and trimming processes.
