Is anyone suprised ?
Braid:
50lb Berkely gorilla tough (7X)
50 lb Stren Braid (3X)
Mono:
Ande 20lb premium (9X)
Ande 20lb Backcountry (20X)
Berkley 40Lb Trilene Big Game (47X)
Stren 14LB Magnaflex (2X)
Stren 20lb fluorocarbon (7X)

I did something similar with Berkley Big Game and some expensive Stren Hi Impact super duper abrasion resistant line. The Big Game was about 5 x better. To do the test right, however, you want to soak the line a while.
