I have both and cannot tell much difference.

They break about the same to me. Just a slight difference is all I can tell.

Will a  MBT make service rifle weight? seems close as it's advertised at 4 1/2 pounds.

I can't really tell a difference unless I am slung up tight, that is where the Geiselle really feels great.  And being adjustable, you know you can make it 4.5 pounds.  My MBT breaks at four pounds.
I won with aces and eights.

I don’t have a scale, but my mbt is stupid light. Like I’ve squeezed one off accidentally (rifle still pointed down range) just trying to feel the reset after firing a shot.

The cool thing is it’s on my new 13.7 solgw/BCM/vltor mashup and the gun stays so perfectly in place after each shot that the 2nd bullet darn near goes in the same hole as the first one.

If you travel to an EIC match and step up the the inspection table with your rig, imagine the outcome if you fail?!?

Test any (all) trigger you are going to run for margin against the test weights. That way you don't have to scramble and get all flustered when you are supposed to be focused. YMMV

Receiver variations seem to keep MBTs just light of 4.5.

MBT is just under 4.5. I have had to adjust two at weigh in.  The trigger geometry does not help. The bow is sloped back towards the stock so the test weight works further out the trigger bow. They need to fix that.
