[QUOTE="kenny thomas, post: 1810237, member: 8993"] You bring up a very good point. Many people that know they are going to sell the hay cuts the rolls back to 4x4.5 or less. Measure some the moment it comes out of the roller. My Vermeer has a way to calibrate the size its showing to the actual size. A few years ago i weighed rolls from 3 different rollers, 2 vermeer that were supposed to be the same and a John Deere. 4x5 dry rolls weighed from 700 to 1000. A 1000 lb roll has 1.42 more than a 700 lb roll or an extra roll for almost ever 2 rolls your buying. Huge difference. So next time you buy check some of that out. [/QUOTE]
