Have you had a look at Johnson Ross tackle. Think they've got a bit of an exclusive with mainline on there base mixes.

What is ARI as referenced by Scotch-Egg in reference to ABS MTX?
I'm currently having good success with ABS Malarkey, have got some Quality Baits Squid in too but tbh the Malarkey appears to be out-fishing it, will keep trialling the two together but think Malarkey will be my staple going forward.
Do have a 'Monster Crab' bait to try at some point too.

Matrix -ari = mtx
Same bait/recipe I believe, think I'll ask for a sample with my next order see if it compares to what I remember.

According to mainline website base mixes are available in 10 kg buckets including active 8 but couldn't find a stockist, maybe Jr could source it 🤔

I doubt it's the same. I've been told by several people that one of the key ingredients was a bovine animal feed meal, and after either foot and mouth or BSE it became illegal to feed cows on cow meat, so the product became redundant and was discontinued.
No idea how you'd find out for certain though.
