I play-tested both, and bought the MW. The 641 was a bad ergonomic fit, and the 182 was a good ergonomic fit. They have different sounds, too, and you have to decide which you like better. I'm very happy with my 182, but I'm still on a learning curve with the low register. With my small hands, the rotaries work better for me than pistons.
