I think the best mag'ed levelwind is the 6500 CS Mag Elite. The 525 Mike P mentioned is a very "hot' reel. Experts only IMO.

the Mag controls have their place. casting eels into the wind I find the Mag control , adjusted properly , helps.

I have a Calcutta 400 and its a great reel do to the beter drag. I have always been able to cast an ABU 6500 further. I think it holds more line and that may be why its casts further for me. Do they make a Magged calcutta?
