OK, so we now have the Pure Swing replacement, I think I will pass on this ball because in general I didn't have a whole lot of luck with the Pure Swings. Most of the time it was 2 or 3 in a row followed by a nasty split.

This ball will be a great replacement for the Bedlam line. That line was hit or miss, for sure...

From what I understand, the core on the Ransom is the same shape as the Full Swing core but with altered densities to change the RG and Diff. As for cover strength, I'm not sure where the cover fits into their current lineup.

Either way, I'm definitely excited to throw this ball. My Complete Bedlam's were alright, nothing spectacular. I'm thinking this new Ransom will take over where the Complete left off.

from my local columbia rep, this ball flat out FLYS on the backend.  It's about as strong as the PP.
