Grayl Ti Ultrapress Titanium Bottle from Nosler

Nosler – a name normally associated with ammunition – is now in the backcountry, water consumption business. In partnership with filtration company Grayl, they recently released the Grayl Ti Ultrapress Titanium Bottle. And, yes, it’s as elegant as it sounds. The bottle will filter and hold 16.9 ounces of water at a time. Using Grayl’s press and activated carbon filtration, the CP4 Grade12 premium gauge titanium bottle presses through its same-material sleeve to quickly filter out contaminants from water collected afield. It removes pathogens including viruses, bacteria, and protozoa plus filtering out heavy metals and chemicals including lead and PFAS. Taste and smell are improved, too, and fast! The bottle can process three liters per minute. Ten seconds is all it takes to filter and fill it completely.

Filtration is just the beginning of what the Grayl Ti Ultrapress Titanium Bottle can do on the trail. It has a unique catchment design with a strategically placed dee ring that, with paracord attached, allows for collection of water from a footbridge or from aside dangerous, rushing flows. Hot or cold water is fine inside, in fact its D-shaped, hinged handles allow for direct heating of contents on a small fire or camp stove.

Unlike other filtration containers, dropping flavoring or hydration directly into the Grayl Ti Ultrapress Titanium Bottle or even shaking up a cocktail is fine. Its one-way, silicon valve, pre-installed in the filtration cartridge, ensures that only what’s safe to drink will land in the drinking reservoir. Gulp down refreshing beverages via the wide-mouth spout. For hiking or hunting, this lightweight, super-tough, multi-tasking filter is a standout. With the Nosler logo and design artistically featured on the outer sleeve and natural titanium good looks, it can make a memorable and practical gift or award for a hunting buddy.
