need specs for an allstar blank

At a rod building show recently i picked up a 7'ish blank labeled FN400. light tip, good backbone.. i'm almost positive it is a breakaway.. can someone give me the specs on it... what was the intended purpose? i've never seen the FN designation.. didn't know if someone had an old catalog or something. i can't find anything on the web.

thaks for any help

I might be small.... but I'm slow.

TB, you got me on that one. I went through my old All Star catalogs and found no FN designations. All Star also used the number system to designate blank length and power. That makes your blank 3'4" with a zero power rating....
Good luck
