Don't think the Batson will fit the bill for throwing riggies....

An SW1089 would probably handle it. Rated 1-6oz. I have one and the rating is pretty accurate. 6oz might be pushing it a bit, but 5oz is doable.

The older, NLA SU1088 was rated 2-5 I believe. This would be full 9'. The new RS 108x blanks are all 8'10" for shipping.

I'm talking the 1088....I have one and I didn't like the way it threw eels.....riggies are heavier so I would think it would be worse.
