Most line manufacturers still follow AFTMA standards for most of their
lines. As far as I know (which may not be much) it's only some of the
specialty that vary from it. Maybe someone that knows more can comment.
I think if you go with a model of line that's been around for awhile, it
will still follow the standard.
