I've been using the power pro 40 and 50 lb test after hearing the reviews here, my only hangup about it is that it digs in the spool about once a hour, other than that I like it for strength and sensitivity

PowerPro here, too. I like 50 lb since it has the diameter of 12 lb mono.

See i normaly use 10 lb fireline and it works for a few days then is crap. If u get a really bad backlash sometimes it just breaks the line. I tried it in like 20 and it was so thick and hard to cast. I found that pp the other day and put it on my diawa team viento or w/e and even being 30 it casts good. Is 30 enough or should i maybe go higher to 50? im just worried about loosing casting ability?

Power Pro hands down. I use 50lb PP when throwing anything but plastics of ONJ's. When throwing them I use 65lb. I gurantee you that I can get your truck unstuck or pull your boat into the jungle using this stuff.
