Is there a US version of the Daiwa BJ Sniper Hechi X?

We could not find the BJ Sniper Hechi X by name in Daiwa’s 2026-27 US catalog (printed, July 2026), so the sizes and specs on this page are the Japan-market ones. Sellers who ship from Japan are the usual source for this exact model in the US; a US dealer may still carry a related model under a different name.

What the maker's numbers say about this model:

  • 3 models from 2.40 m (7'10") to 3.10 m (10'2"), all 3-piece.
  • The shortest packed length is 126 cm (49.6 in) (Sniper Hechi X XH-240).
  • Weights run from 138 g (4.9 oz) on the Sniper Hechi X XH-240 to 200 g (7.1 oz) on the Sniper Hechi X XH-310.
  • 90% carbon.
  • Japan list price ¥18,900–¥21,600, which is in the bottom quarter (by Japan list price) of the 1440 rod series we list.
  • Rated by Daiwa for sinkers #1–#3 (3.75–11.25 g).
  • Long telescopic rods used from rocks and harbour walls.
  • Sizes marked go (号) are the Japanese standard. For sinkers one go is exactly 3.75 g, so we convert it; for line it is a diameter class rather than a breaking strain, so we print the maker's number as published.
  • Specs are Daiwa's published figures; conversions to imperial are ours.
