I agree with Justin. Probably more of a cruise prop. I have a Sterba 68/74 prop on my Lycoming 0320 E2C 150 HP. I get about 2250-2300 RPM on takeoff roll and can exceed 2700 WOT. Keep in mind, different prop mfgs have different designs. Can't really compare. What matters is how your engine performs with that prop.
What kind of rpm do you get on the takeoff roll and WOT in cruise?

I have a Catto 68x77 that I’m putting on a O360 A1A 180 hp for my 4, Catto states it a in between cruse and climb for performance. But as Mel says wood ,metal ,glass, it’s not apples to apples.

My fixed pitch sensenich prop on my 180hp -4 will make 2150 rpm static, yet in flight just hits 2750 up high, and if left wide open down low would go to 2850.. I would think if you are making 2300+ static, then you would be more in the “climb” prop territory.
