I have one the above reels and use it when fishing 'big meat', its also a joy to use.
I do however have a couple issues with the build quality. The first one I received had a pronounced wobble and the reel seat, wasn't parallel to the drum, so it went back. The second reel, which I have now, also had a slight wobble and I believe over time it has become slightly worse (or perhaps that's just because I keep staring at it)? It also has a couple of machining scuffs, which clearly were not properly deburred prior to the reel being anodised.
I'm currently considering sending it to Mill Tackle (who built it) to see if anything can be done about the wobble? It doesn't cause an issue with the reel's performance and I didn't buy it to polish and put in a cabinet; however it bugs me that a £375 reel does this.
Any other owners of this reel, had any similar issues?
