NFC Blank Close to St Croix/Rod Geeks C4610MXF

Has anyone run across an NFC blank close to action and power to St Croix's C4610MXF? I am not opposed to trimming another blank since most of their XF blanks seem to be focused for drop shotting. Someone has asked me to build them a rod on this blank and there are a couple of blanks from NFC that I was going to order for myself and thought I might find an alternative from them to save on shipping. I also find it annoying that Rod Geeks does not provide rod stickers with their blanks and I have had no luck making my own. Thanks.

I don't know about NFC, but Batson has some.

If you know the CCS numbers then certainly, with their thousands of blanks, there is one that is close. CCS? Based on my experience with St Croix/RodGeeks, you're looking for about 17-19 ERN and AA about 77 +.

NFC reps, what do you have?

You may find a lighter Hot Shot blank, trim from the butt end - some of them are awesome like that.

The 2 Rodgeeks blanks I got early this year both came with decals. I think the decals look cheesy so I had some made elsewhere. Also, the shipping was fast, I got them within a week.
