Does anyone run the Sleepy Creek 440 Nitro?

I have checked it out and they look well built, but I haven't heard of anyone running them on the line.

I'm curious, too. Thinking I'd give K9 Xtremes the edge, though, for the money and the out of the box readiness.

Awesome! Anything you dislike about the trap? I ordered 1 to play with, and I want to see if they are worth getting a dozen before sleepy creek closes up shop
