Like Roballen said, the 1309 will have no problem casting tips, including Big Boys up to 400 gr if you take out tips 1 and 2 of the Windcutter. Remember if you don't take out both tip 1 and 2 of the Windcutter, a full length Big Boy will badly overload the rod. The casting range you are looking at is well withing the capability of the 1309.
Yes, I really like the T&T and GLX rods. they have fast recovery, are relatively stiff rods, have a good strong tip, a powerful butt, and progressively load furthur down the blank with increasing casting load. Also, there are a lot of folks out there who really like the fast 2-handers made by T&T.
