Hey guys I got my hands on an Accurate Boss Magnum 270 Twindrag with the slower 4.3 gear ratio and a Saltiga 30 star drag. I can't keep both, but I may decide to keep one of them. Which one would you recommend keeping?? I may also get my hands on an Saltiga 30 Lever Drag. So out of the three which would you keep?

Apples and oranges, the drag on a lever controlled reel has a huge advantage compared to a star controlled drag! Also a twin drag like the accurate 270! I own one and wouldn't consider trading it for the Diawa for the drag reason alone!

I haven't had a chance to use it yet, but from what I hear the Accurate is an amazing little reel. I read about sleeving it to take pressure off the bearings, may have to research that some more.

Completely different animals. I love my saltigas. Landed everything from fluke, bass, tiles, cod and even small tuna on my 15 and 20. The accurates are beast as well, probably have a smoother drag.
I would decide which feels most comfortable in your hand and also if you like star ir lever drag better for the fishing you do.
