  • Any Abu experts?

    Can anybody please help me i.d the spool that is in my, alleged 6500 mag elite, green.

    Its a silver ultracast spool with 4x9x4 bearings in the spool. The reel foot number dates the reel as a '74 but i am lead to believe that ultracast spools were 80's onwards and other abu's i have had have been 4x10x4
    Possibilitys i have found are -

    ABU 323 – ABU 523 – ABU 823 – ABU MAG III – ABU ULTRA MAG III – ABU XLT3
    From Blackdog and Rocket reel co websites

    I don't know if the cage and spool seem small or if its me using the 535 too long

    Can anybody help clear this up for me?
    Thanks
