I just noticed that on Ebay.

I was thinking, however, that the 300 series with the 6.3:1 and substantially larger spool would pick up just about the same amount of line as the 200 series with the 7:1. It's only .7 more rotations of the spool per crank (so that's like 10% more)... but the spool on the 300 holds pert'near twice as much line. Should just about come out in the wash, don't you think? ~josh
