Which specific blanks are you referring to? GUSA has an MH and an M in their worm series, both having an XF action. I believe Lami has several models in the IM700 & XMG series.

I have used the G-USA C65MHXFWDHX and like it very much. It is an excellent blank. Unfortunately, I have no frame of reference to the Lamiglass blank as I have never used one.
