Does anyone know the guide ring size for the tip and smallest few guides on the Shimano/Loomis Conquest 905?
I have the Loomis NRX Umbrella rod which has the hybrid guide system and I had one of the titanium REC guides break while using a leader….the guides are too small on that rod to be using heavy braid with leader and I wanted to confirm the size on the Shimano/Loomis Conquest 905 before purchasing. Thanks

Contact Tackle Trap and ask them.

What knot are you using for your leader? There are many smaller and stronger connections that can be used. I will contact G.Loomis and see about getting the guide sizing for you. The NRX should be REC#6 for the smallest guide sizes, maybe a 7.
