Those Alconites will work just fine. Especially with the braid. Search around the boards and you'll see how some other guys have been wrapping the 1267. Lots of good info out there.

Think the Allstar 1208 is a little heavy for the 1.5 oz stuff. But it rocks with 2.5-4oz. :D

The 1208 Batson and Amtak are lighter than the Allstar 1208, and work well with the 1.5 to 2.5oz.
