Its hardy, lasts well, good abrasion resistance, less wind knots, good knot strength,

Down side, it doesnt cast the best as others. and i dont like the black as its tough to spot in low light conditions.

 Personally i think all Berkley braids are pretty reliable.  Especially the Fireline, i run it on several different reels and havn't had one problem yet. 

I havn't actually used the crystal braid yet but i hear good things about it.  There is definetely better quality braids out there but then the prices go up too.

For the money you'd spend on it i'd say Berkley is one of the best options.

 I also use it as Garot wire. did you know, you can double up Fireline and use it as a knife? Ive heard it also ties good nooses.
