9' with an 8 tip. I think it's rated 2-6...but haven't ever gone above 4. I'm sure someone here knows the upper limit...it's a very fast rod.
Don't know if you can still get them, but the Batson SU may be the same???

Allstar 1266. Lami XRA 1205 , Lami XRA 126 1MH , Allstar 1209.
trouble is the 5 OZ for many. many more rods will do 4 well but are weak at 5 OZ.

I have a patrioit 1209 that paired with a 7000 is a nice meat stick soft enough for my tastes but with balls to spare... I'd stay off the premier line of St Croix had the 10'6" yuck; they are a HUGE step down from the Doerr series (which I have 2)

I use a St. Croix 10ft Premier 3/4 - 4oz with a 400TE. Up to 3.25oz it casts like a rifle, at the high end of it's range I find it a little soft for large wind resistant plugs. You can really drive it but it doesn't seem to make as much difference in distance as slightly liter lures. I'd stay away from the PP. If you get a backlash you'll say goodby to whatever you were throwing. $$$$ Perhaps because it's so much thinner the PP seems to knot up a lot more than say silver thread. I love the TE, it's much easier to tune for the conditions than my 400S, although I don't know that it casts any farther.
