The mag 3 is similar size of the 6500 and the mag 2 is similar size of the 5500.

Are they tournament converted ?

As for the money it doesn't sound bad. If they are in good condition break his arm :lol:


Hop this helps

I have my Mag 3 filled with .35 for the 175g but you could fill it with .31 if you want to use it for the 150g. My mag 2 I use with .28 for the 125g & 100g. For all my reels I use Sakuma Nite Crystal just incase you wanted a manufacturer as well :D
