B · $124.99
Same published mono/PowerPro capacity and retrieve as Miravel 2500HG, but 1.2 ounces heavier.
Why pay more: Vanford saves 0.9 ounce and adds InfinityXross and DuraCross; the distinction is most useful on a high-use finesse outfit.
Why save: Against Vanford, keep $130 if the 7.1-ounce Miravel already balances the rod.
