      I bought a feed blower from Atascosa Wildlife Supply about 4 years ago. As for the bin, look at Southwest Fabricators out of Hugo Oklahoma.

        I got a 4.5 ton double axle trailer and a 14 ton bin this spring, both Atascosa.

        I also poured a 6” double rebar slab for the bin.

          Atascosa will have all u need in trailers and bins.

          Gravity flow bin is best option. 9k pounds in about a minute vs the auger system.

          Bruton makes a feed wagon too.

            Feed jet out of San Angelo as well.

            I think all are the same except the bin gate at the top and the feed jet runs of a bigger battery.

              Thanks tminc for compliment.
              Looks like all the feed bin manufactures are all about same on price and I guess blower type trailer best way to go. Looks like Atascosa will more than likely get my business. Just have to decide 3 ton or 4.5 ton trailer.

                How far will most of the feeders be from the bin?

                If a good distance I would go with the 4.5-5 ton, making less trips can save a lot of time, and as Cull hunter said, get the gravity flow overhead bin, is much quicker to fill compared to the auger ones

                  This combo ^ at last property I worked for was great.

                  changed ranches and now work with a green overhead bin from san Angelo and a easy feed trailer. Bin gets moisture to feed and blower is crazy loud. Wouldn't buy again
