About the MRV

MRV: Discraft’s stable mid-range driver

The Discraft MRV — the M R Vector — is a stable midrange rated 4/4/-1/2, with a Discraft stability rating of 1.5. It was PDGA-approved in January 2000 as Discraft’s answer to the Roc, which then owned the midrange market, and it went out of production in 2004. It is deep for a mid: 2.2 cm tall with a 1.3 cm rim depth on a narrow 1.2 cm rim.

That profile makes it a placement mid — straight with a little turn under power and a dependable two-point finish. Older runs in Elite Z hold their numbers; Pro D beats in toward straight. What it will not do is show up in a shop. This is a collector disc now, and the Buzzz, which replaced it in 2003, is the reason.

How much the MRV turns and fades depends on how hard it is thrown. These three shapes are drawn from the manufacturer’s numbers, not from measured throws.
