I went with the screw locking version. They are cheaper and simpler, which usually means they will last longer. At my local gym all top ropes are set up with the orange self locking biners and some of them are sticking and can be a pain to get on and off. Maybe some lube would fix that. But since I'm not using mine in the gym where I am bouncing between top rope lines every 2 minutes I went with the screw locking. LOVE THEM.
