Lovely action and im hitting 145 yds with a 30ml ringset 2.5 oz lead is that not far enough ? If not then the big snipers with 30 ml ringset will get you 170 /180yds and turn the blank into a usable one. Both blanks with 30ml butt and more guides will also give you excellent accuracy and stop a train .

Didn't realise you were doing the snipers, hence why I said the 2.25tc torrix. Be interested to know the price of a pair with full cork and DPS seat, what guides are you fitting ?

Seeing that many venues ban Leaders and Braid (non marker), this thread gave me a good ol chuckle.

I recommend fuji or kigans and obviously the price is dictated by the build wanted. My own have 30ml butt guide with a 25 also on butt section and eight guides on tip section. Fuji dnps seats as originals .Kevs standard build was less guides.. cork handles make the rod slightly heavier.

Thought my baby snipers had eleven guides in total but may be wrong, if I buy again would want same two on butt and have become a fan of American tackle titanium guides that century fit on Thier beach casters..
