I don't understand your question...

The only Accurist PT they make is the 500 and 501. The same way with the Accurist CX 500 and 501

AC500PT - Speed 6.2:1, 150 yds. / 12 lb.,      25.0 IPC

AC500CX - Speed 6.2:1, 150 yds. / 12 lb.,      25.0 IPC

Tight Lines!!!  

upon further review the cabella's web site has the accurist pt 500&501(my mistake)but also has an accurist pts for about $20.00 more...it may be for salt water but i'm not sure

Happy Holidays!

I see the 2 reels your talking about. The accurist pt is the older version I believe. The 500pt is basically the same, except for the aluminum frame and the coating. The older model had the stainless steel BB system, the 500pt has their new polymer/stainless hybrid BB system. The older pt has a flippin switch, the 500pt doesn't. The 500pt is also a LP setup for salt.
