First and biggest difference is that an Excal is closed bolt and a little smoother. Vikings are open bolt and therefore a bit faster. Vikings can be milled lighter but its not cheap.
ule EMAG or VIKING

Excal two solenoids.
Vikings one solenoid.
Vikings a hair faster than an Excal.
Vikings a hair lighter than an Excal.
The Excals I have had were louder than the Vikings.
Personally I'll take a Viking any day over an Excal but you will find AKA enthusiasts all have their personal favorites and are fairly adamant about which is best.
Not as bad as cocker versus mag but close.

I had an 04 viking, tadoa board, vert frame, stock milling, it was a fast efficiant gun, but when I had a chance to add cash and trade up to an xmag, I jumped on it, the mags are so much more modular and beautiful, I know many maggers who carry a 68/45 and 4 pods and a hopper,and do just awesome, because not everyone needs to shoot 8 pods a game.
Both is a great idea, but in the long run, I think the mag will be a lot more fun, I like the warp set up also in particular situations, and have one gun set up full time in a warp formation, and it is very effective on a speedball field where keeping a low profile is a large advantage.BEO MAFIA
