Big 777-12 Swivels Review
Our verdict
The Big 777-12 swivel pack costs $16.45 and holds a 4.6 star rating, a solid score, but it's built on just 48 reviews, far fewer than the hundreds backing its main competitors. Bought last month at 100+ shows real demand behind the price.

Anglers who want a metal swivel pack at a mid-range price and are comfortable buying a listing with a smaller but still respectable review base backing its rating.

Skip this if you want the deepest possible review history before buying, since alternatives like the Tactical (645 reviews) and AFW (621 reviews) swivels offer far more data points at a lower price.

The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other fishing gear and tackle we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
Picture needing a swivel pack that's simple to order without digging through pages of size and pack-count variations. The Big 777-12 keeps things straightforward, a metal swivel offered in a multi-color finish at 3.52 ounces total weight, priced at $16.45.
The spec sheet here is thinner than its competitors. There's no listed pack count or pound test rating, just material, weight, and color. That makes it harder to directly compare per-piece value against packs like the Norman or AFW, which spell out exact piece counts and test ratings.
Where it does compare is on rating and price. At 4.6 stars, it matches the Tactical and AFTCO swivels and trails only the AFW's 4.8, but its 48 reviews are a fraction of what those other listings have, 645, 621, and 191 respectively. Priced at $16.45, it also lands as the most expensive of the bulk-style swivel packs in this set, aside from the single-piece AFTCO clip. Bought last month at 100+ matches the pace of its better-reviewed competitors, which is a positive sign given the smaller review count.
Pros
- 4.6 star rating, matching the Tactical and AFTCO swivels
- Bought last month at 100+, on pace with more established competitors
- Metal construction suited to general rigging use
- In stock and available now
- Multi-color finish offers variety in the pack
Cons
- Only 48 reviews, far fewer than the 539 to 645 seen on competing packs
- No listed pound test rating, making it hard to judge line-weight suitability
- No stated pack count, unlike competitors that specify 30 or 50 pieces
- Priced at $16.45, the highest of the bulk swivel packs compared here
- No stainless steel designation, just general metal

Performance notes
At 3.52 ounces total weight, this listing describes the pack as a whole rather than breaking down per-piece weight the way the Norman, AFW, and Tactical listings do, which makes direct comparison harder. Without a stated pound test rating, it's difficult to know exactly what line class this swivel is built to handle, whereas the AFW clearly states 180 pound test and the Tactical states 50 pound test. Metal construction without a stainless steel callout suggests a more basic build than the stainless options in this comparison, which matters most for long-term saltwater corrosion resistance. The multi-color finish is a cosmetic detail that doesn't affect function either way.
What buyers say
A 4.6 star rating puts this swivel on equal footing with two of its four competitors, which is a solid outcome on its face. The catch is sample size: 48 reviews is well under a tenth of what the Tactical (645) or AFW (621) packs have accumulated, meaning this rating hasn't been tested by nearly as many buyers. That said, bought last month at 100+ shows the listing is moving at the same pace as its more heavily-reviewed rivals, which suggests current buyers are finding it satisfactory even if the historical review record is thinner. It's a reasonably safe bet, just with less data behind it than the alternatives.

Frequently asked questions
How many pieces come in the Big 777-12 swivel pack?
The listing doesn't specify an exact pack count, only a total weight of 3.52 ounces, which makes it harder to calculate a per-piece cost compared to competitors that list exact quantities like 30 or 50 pieces.
Is the 4.6 star rating on the Big 777-12 trustworthy?
It's a solid score, tied with two other swivels in this comparison, but it's based on only 48 reviews, a much smaller sample than the 539 to 645 reviews backing similarly-rated competitors. Treat it as a reasonably good sign, not a fully proven track record.
What line weight is the Big 777-12 swivel rated for?
The listing doesn't include a pound test rating, unlike the AFW (180 pound test) or Tactical (50 pound test) packs. Without that spec, it's harder to match this swivel to a specific line class before buying.
