=> As a consequence, on a Beuchat Mundial you should have only little strech on the shaft-line, because any excessive stretch will lift the shaft at rear (lever effect of the line-release) and may cause an inaccurate shot.

P.S. Needless to say, I have the same gun  |
Exactly, I restring four times a season. probably cost me $3 to restring my gun with 1.8mm mono(350lb I think). You want as little tension as possible on the line release or like ulysses said it will lift the spear. The biggest wear spot is where the mono goes through the spear. If the mono has shrunk this much I wonder about the condition of the rubbers.
