The line capacity looks similar to a 6500 series abu, which you could probably also find for about the same money. I saw a red 7000 at wallyworld the other day for $85.
What's almost certain is that Browning doesn't make reels, so the question is "Who makes it and who fixes it?". At least with Abu Garcia, you can find spare parts and/or performance parts anywhere. Just my 2 cents.
