Having owned both, I still have the battle 5000 purchased a 6000 battle and going to buy 2 4000 battles in the future to replace some light tackle reels that just didn't make the cut today...
I sold the Saltist because of line lay issues... I think the main shaft might have been a mm or 2 too short because the spool fit my Saltiga 4500Z just fine as i used it for 2 outings just to see if it was the spool...
Other then that i have had no issues with the penn battles.
I have the battle 5000 on a Tica Striper rod 7' M-H.
Also worth looking at is the Spheros line up that are in the same price range
