New BC Reel - Which would you pick? (Under $75)

[low_pro]

I liked the Megaforce but it was a graphite frame.  Noone around me sells the Exceler which was another one I was considering but I heard it feels cheap in your hand.  

I went with the accurist because of the frame and the braking system.  Can't wait to try it out.   ;D

The tackletour guys seemed to like it also:

I hope I like it that much... that will give me reason to purchase another... :

thanks for everyone's input... (even the Shimano guys... )

I feel I've made an educated purchase...

I was in the same boat. I could not decide between the Exceler and the Accurist. I had 4 Revo's, awesome reels, but too small for me. I took my G.Loomis BCR803 and MBR783 to the store to get it right. Once I mounted the Accurist's on them, I loved the way they felt. I have fished all but the PTS already, and they are great reels. I just wish I had figured it out before the Revo's(S,SX's, and STX).

Love it... will buy another! It took a few casts to get dialed in but now casts effortlessly and feels stout when catching fish. I just need to get my drag dialed in and I will be set... I definatley recommend this for a sub $75 reel... woo hoo!

I love those reels, but when I was shopping I ended up choosing a Bass Pro Shops Extreme and I have never been happier with a baitcaster.  I haven't owned all that many, 5 or 6 maybe.  I'm comparing this reel to the Abu Garcia Ambassadeurs I've had, and a Quantum, Marado, and Shakespeare too.  This BPS Extreme beats them all.

I am glad you are happy with it. I love mine. I actually like CX's more than the PT's. The PT's are in the boxes for now. They look darn cool too!! Here are three of mine.
