To expand a little more - for those contractors that are in the middle or high end of what @Tony Reale describes - we know what our costs are to complete a job and we are intelligent. In spite of what many of the guru programs say about low-balling your contractors during pricing negotiations, one of the quickest ways to lose a relationship with a good contractor is to continually want to lowball them while negotiating pricing.
You are correct, I'm not expecting 5000 calibrated lumens. I know my Optoma UHD60 isn't cranking out a full 3000 lumens in HDR or Cinema modes. That said, I don't want to end up with a significantly dimmer image at 200" than what I have now. I've been trying to figure out if that means getting a higher lumen projector and calibrating it down or getting a better-calibrated projector, like the NX7, and adding a higher-gain screen.

I'd like to maximize my fL so I was planning on going with a 1.3 gain screen. I didn't want to go with a higher gain than that because I was concerned with getting too much hotspotting.
