It says 1600 pounds but what about when it Daisy changed and anyone doing this seen 3/8
 
7/64 would probably be ok but personally I would feel better with at 1/8" (2500 lbs) minimum. I use 1/8" amsteel daisy chain for my sticks and find it to be extremely functional.
 
I'm using a daisy chain from 3/16" on my Predator this year after using 1/4" last year. I've practiced with it all summer and it seems to be holding up fine. That said, I always am on a tight tether when I step from my stick to my platform so it it does fail I'm only swinging into the tree.
 
I have a diy platform and use 7/64" daisy chained amsteel and I use it on my Lone Wolf sticks. Works great. Keep a tight tether!
 
I use 1/8 for my leverage sticks and it works great. Just didnt know if there were any downsides to using on the predator.
