Hey folks. I'm looking for measurements on any of the following models, HM Or IM. MB702, MB703, MB704, SJ704. I believe I recall this information being ready available, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. Anything you have would be most appreciated.

Gary Loomis had a CC to ERN table on his site at one time that went higher than any other I've seen, as far as actually measuring all his blanks, that's a bit fuzzy, I don't remember that. Not a big fan of the RDA system as it was presented to me, not as precise or, well out as the CC system to my way of thinking.

The "RDA" is mostly just the CCS "Big Picture." Only meant for comparing specific lengths/sections of a rod blank.

The NFC chart is in the online library here. But it doesn't list blanks, only the conversions between data mediums. Good chart, nonetheless.

A few weeks back someone posted a link to a CCS database of various rod blanks. You might do a search and find it. I forget what the thread topic was.

Just measured my NFC HM MB 704-1 blank. Intrinsic power of 218 cents or 545 gm. This gives an ERN of 19.21. The tip size on this blank is a size larger than advertised. Do not trust my AA measurements so did not do it. Hope this helps.

Sounds about right. The 664mb hm has an ERN of 19.88.
