400 is a more capable reel than the 300. Comes down to how they feel in the hand. A lot of guys swear by Toro's. I find them incredibly uncomfortable and prefer the Lexa 400. Both are great reels

Lexa 400 works great for me in the 6.4 gearing.

I own and use all the reels mentioned. No way I would buy another LEXA over the NACLs. I repeat NO WAY. I also have a curado and it doesnt even get used anymore.

I used the Power Lexa 400 for about an hour and it seemed like a nice reel. I've also been using a Revo Toro 60 this year and I feel like it's the best reel I've owned. I think both are nice but I've been really happy with the Revo 60.

I have both the 6.4 lexa 400 and the Pwr 400. pwr lexa is great for throwing blades, and the 6.4 has treated me well in other areas. I would suggest either of these.

They do work good but I would NOT say better than a NACL. I have them all.
