Yep more nickel and I believe more chromium...

316 is much better at corrosion resistance.....

Anything UNDER 308 cannot be used with VMC hooks or you will see electrolysis happen rapidly and the hooks will rust in HOURS....
when did you become a metallurgist ?
didnt we talk about this ?
I would like you to show me #304 that rusts, and i will eat it right there on the spot. maybe your VMC hooks are having a reaction to the CORE in the 308L , the core is what makes it SOFTER.. thats why i went with the #304 which is softer due to the annealing process & no core. and NO it does not stretch too much as some suggested. You are dealing with .062 steel wire. Do you think its really going to "let go" I would love to see a #304 wire let go on a wood plug. that would have to be an 800 lb bluefin at the other end.

if you guys want 308L ON A ROLL i can easily order a skid of it.
I thought you wanted the #308 in " 36" and it had better be straight" stuff ?

i am cranky today
if i dont get to fish soon, i will
