I got a Calcutta 400 (5.0:1) and it only gets 24 inches/crank but the diameter is real small

The Torium has a gear ratio at 6.2:1, which is not that much more than the Calcutta, but does have a large diamter and it retrieves at 46"/crank

with the narrow and large diameter of the MXJ at 5.8:1, my guess is a retirieve near 40 or more but Avet's doesnt give those specs...

Why are you asking these questions? I'm looking to buy one, not sell one.
I think line per crank is something a marketing agent decided to post because they had nothing left to talk about.

So Ojos, do you have a MXJ to sell me or what?
