What was the cost before shipping on a dozen? Found them $299. I don’t get it. They’re more money? I paid just over $400 CAD for a dozen Belisles from the FHA warehouse in Winnipeg. The new Belisles come with the anchor cable which I cut off right away.

Again, this is not Canada. We don’t get your Belisles for that price down here.
A dozen Belisles costs $380 USD down here or $550 Canada pesos
A dozen Duke supermags costs right under $300 usd delivered
Gotta live up to the nickname...

Id probably try a few if Belisle and sav ever go out of business. Duke are made in Korea though. I thought more of youse wouldve wanted to buy Made in USA products.

Ryan, the Bridger traps were made in Taiwan when we bought the company in 2010 and they are still made there today. Made by the same family and in the same facilities as Northwoods traps were made back in the 1980's.

Thanks Tim! Google is pretty crazy. Depending on how you word the question, it’ll say Bridgers made in the US, tweak it a bit and it changes to Taiwan.

In my opinion the 330 dukes are over powered.
I'll have ot get my hands on one so I'll withhold judgement but I was hoping they wouldn't put their spring on the super magnum. 80 dollars a dozen difference isn't a deal breaker for me if I believe one is better than the other.
Most likely I'll spend the extra 80 dollars or go with the Bridgers. In my opinion they are superior to the dukes.
