MSR Trailshot..... interesting....

It can also be converted to a gravity filter easily by adding a "dirty" bag.

I tried it and it was ok ..as was the befree . I clogged the trail shot often in the Gila . Too often for my liking

Personally I take basically 4 types of filters .

MSR guardian - Rivers , desert , cattle tanks
Platy - gravity and group relatively clean mountain water
Sawyer regular -- lighter , decent water , I've clogged the mini too often and had friends clog theirs .Use the standard sawyer
Iodine - most mountain water

I ordered a Trailshot and it should be arriving this week. I'll hopefully get a chance to take it out this weekend and I'll update with my initial findings

I tried one out on a blacktail hunt and it was very slow and ended up worthless after it plugged up.
Have a backup plan and don’t rely on it as your main filter.

I use a trail shot and like it for size and weight, mine plugged last season But was about 5 years old so I ended up boiling water.

It’s alright. It has pros and cons like everything.

Iv still got mine. It’s still okay.

Nobody should ever rely on just a filter. They break, chlorine tabs weigh nothing.

I have a Trail Shot, but use the BeFree more often now. The Trail shot did seem to plug fast even using clean Sierra waters.
