The plastic coating on the LC13 is somewhat larger than the T lines. I've made 30' coils of both, tied them up with string and threw both in my swimming pool at the same time, the LC 13 hit the bottom a little faster than the T line. Way back in time, I made a few shooting heads out of the uncoated lead core but the problem is the lead broke down. Just like today when I put on lead core lines for people trolling for Kokanee at Shaver, you have to use the nylon coating to tie the lead core to the mono material. All you have to do is twist the lead core a couple times and it breaks. That doesn't happen with LC 13
