Anyone use quick links rather than cold shuts? For center swiveling #1 , #1 1/2 coilsprings. Pros / Cons?

I prolly use bigger ones than you are thinkin about but yes- I use them on even big 3's and 4's. Just make sure to wrench tighten them

I haven't used quick links for center swivel attachment but have for other purposes and never had one opened if it's wrenched down tight, as said, however I have had them locked up from rust over time so if removal is ever in the future that might be an issue. I started out using cold shuts as the stake ring but have moved on to chestnut rings and chain and cable ground stakes.
