I would say the Profacis/Colombos were probably equal to the Bonannos in the thirties to sixties but stronger than the Bonannos by the time the seventies and eighties rolled around. At that time, the Bonannos were pretty much frozen out of a lot of lucrative rackets which the Colombos, specifically Gerry Lang and Ralph Scopo with construction, shared a piece of with the other Five Families.

By the time Massino took over and the Colombo war started the Bonannos had clearly surpassed the Colombos and arguably even the Luccheses.
