Good insight, Phil -- thanks.  I would buy the Inferno 130 without hesitation, as my 110 fits extremely well - just needed a minor ankle punch to make it a perfect fit.  It's just too soft for me now.

I actually tried a Nordica Girish (130) boot this spring, and really liked the fit, but (at least at room temp) it was way softer than my Inferno 110, so no real upgrade seemed likely there.  Fit was excellent, though, so perhaps the Patron might be similar fit, but stiffer?

Lange RS didn't work -- weird fit between heel and forefoot.  I used to ski in a Lange Comp Pro, and loved the edge grip it gave me.  I miss that, and hope to regain it in a new boot.

I have not tried a Scorpion, but could give it a whirl.  That, and the Dalbello KR Two.

So far, those with the best fit and stiffness combos have been the Inferno and Raptor.  Either would need minimal work to make them fit exceedingly well.
