Those rating are based on the capacity of the reel, not the drag. The SX/MX get the same drag. Personally, I like the MXJ better than the SX. Its a little narrower than the SX and bigger around. Perfect form factor for me!

On lever action reels, the drag ability is usually in proportion to the diameter of the spool, as pressure is put directly on the spool, and not on the drive train
