reel recomendations

hello
i'm lookin for a recomendation for a conventional reel.
will be fishing RI breachways
2oz bucktails,6" storms, wood
9' rod glass
65# braid
levelwind
$100-150

so any suggestions?
looked at the 7000c3 but no longer swedish.
looked at the calcutta but pricey.

still leaning on an abu. 6500 or 7000? I know most favor the 6500 for plugs but I'm leaning on the 7000 for durability and winching power in heavy current with heavy line.

As of now I' m looking at an older 7000 and converting from bushings to bearings and a soothie drag.
thx
