[QUOTE="tom4018, post: 89520, member: 55"] I did have just a headgate, an older one, which was mounted on 2 crossties with gates behind it on each side. Gate had some wear on it and some off them would get out of it. Also if one was a little wild they would move around a lot making it tough to give a shot. We bought a new Priefert this spring and have ran about 40 head thru it, we really like it. I looked at the others also, one thing I like about the Powder River XL is it squeezes from both sides, but did not like all the levers that stick out. I like the Priefert style gate better by being able to use auto or manual. I also like the rear gate on it, not a drop gate like WW. We looked long and hard bought what we felt was the best choice for us. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
