I have a set of 3 10ft 3.5lb retractable that I have had for around 18 months and love them.
I have had fish to 50lb on them and use them exclusively now if boat fishing, especially in a weedy water I fish.
Don't let the high test curve put you off, they are a pleasure to play fish on but, still have plenty of back bone.
I cannot comment on how they cast past 70 yards as have never done so and would be using my 12 footers if needed.
All in all, a great value for money rod and very well built to the point that I shall return for further builds.

Not sure I understand your question as, I am only aware of the one blank type in the retractables in either 3.00lb or 3.50lb TC.

Stu did some work on a set of Century's for me, a thoroughly nice bloke, reasonable price and his work is top notch
