i find myself alternating between a 8'6" 8-12 and a 9'0 6-12 most of the time these days. don't really find myself outgunned or wanting for more length, unless fishing big rivers(don't do that much any more).

i just looked at batson's website, and it looks like you don't have many options in those actions any more. still have a 1084 in the RX7 graphite, but the 1024 and 1084 are both gone in XST. wish i had picked up a few when they were making them...
