Reviews
"I have not used the Trail Shot extensively, but it has worked very well when I have used it. I tend to use the MSR Hyperflow more frequently for speed, when weight is not a factor. The Trail shot is a little more labour intensive for my arthritic hands, but it is an excellent option."
"I have used many filters and this one is now my favourite. Although I wish it had just a little longer hose. That is the only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars."
"Used this on multiple bikepacking trips with questionable and/or limited water on some occasions. It's lightweight and never let me down yet." -
