Am i right both these lines are "fast" sinking.
Other than one is in a green box and one is in a red box.
Has anyone noticed any differance when using it?
Is one better than the other?
Thanks all in advance.

I have XT loaded on my reels and think it's been one of the best mono's I've used

The loaded is still a decent line but it's less supply, takes a set (coiling), and doesn't deal with twist as well as the XT. Imo.

Less twist with the XT and generally better behaved, as tough a line as you'll find and casts well (sitting behind my rods now at 120yds using 15lb XT).

totally accurate assessment imho!
I've used the loaded for a few years now and been pretty much happy with it, but i thought it was all the same stuff. So I'm going to give the xt a go, i fancy a change. Thanks all for your replies.

Just read your original post and the Gardiner HD is VERY good also and sinks quicker / better than both having used all of them..
I have gone for the HD on all my reels..!!
