Orvis Fluorocarbon Leader Line

It looks like ORVIS is no longer selling fluorocarbon leader line and is only now selling fluorocarbon tippets. Does anyone have any info on this? What is your go-to fluorocarbon leader line?

Tippet is leader material, no? I used mirage flouro tippet last season and a half with no problems.

I believe tippet material is tapered from a larger diameter down to a smaller diameter.
I am looking for leader material of a consistent diameter.

Mirage is great stuff, that's what you want to get.

Been tying lots of leaders with it for the last 2 weeks.
