Cheapest is not always best. I know this and if you order the cheapest, you'll soon find out also.

I bought the Vike brand. About one in every 8 or 10 will not be finished well inside and if will fray your line.

I use Strike King and haven't had a single problem. They are pricey though!

I was looking at Tackle Warehouse and it said 2 day shipping for $5 if you order over $50 worth of stuff. So got $60 worth of stuff and when I went to check out and clicked on the 2 day shipping option if said estimated delivery date was the 28th. Hmmmm how the hell is that 2 days hmmm

I don't know what make "quality tungsten," maybe it having inserts? I buy 99% of my tungsten from anglers pro tackle. I don't believe it has inserts (at least the dirt cheap tungsten) buy I retie after every fish, and I check my line for frays frequently, I also peg it most of the time. Don't know if that helps or hurts? Im not a pro, but I fish every weekend, and I'm perfectly happy with the tungsten from Anglers Pro Tackle.

I'm using the ones I bought in bulk from APT. The best pricing I've found, and a smooth hole that I've not had any issues putting my line through. I will buy from them again.

Plus if you need em soon, better to go to Academy or even Wal-Mart and have them in hand. Will cost a couple dollars more, but you know you have em.

Yes their prices are definitely cheaper, and I think there are a lot of people aware of that, because I go to the Academy on my way home from work quite often and they literally never have them in stock, but I can see the place on the display rack where they normally keep them.

Some places, 2 day shipping means they will do 2 day shipping, that doesn't mean they won't take 2 or 3 days to process the order. But after it is processed it will get to you in the 2 days. Sort of false advertising.

Alibaba. Straight from china. Where do you think all the manufacturers here are getting them from? eeks I think 1/4 oz weights are around .25 cents.

can someone give me the reasons for using tungsten? it would need to be truly substantial to justify the expense.
