Has anyone used these extensively? And If so what are your thoughts on 2 coils versus 4 coil? Are the two extra coils needed? Or are they plenty strong with two? Thanks

I have 2 dz. Wire lever 4 coil NO BS jrs. They are a great trap. IF i lost 184 MJ 600 Sterling and had to start over. I would buy 4 coil Wire Lever NO BS traps. Only 2 traps out there for = Everday. Set for 60 plus days in ground and still catch a coyote. MJ 600s and NO BS traps. I trap 365 a year and everything else is junk in my opinion! LoL!

At $38-40 each, do the wire lever Jrs come with the coyote already in it?

I ran a combination of solid lever juniors, solid lever Extremes, Alpha’s, and MB 650’s last year… this year I bought 5 dozen wire levers juniors, two dozen steel lever Extremes and 1 dozen wire lever Extremes. Oh… and two more dozen Alpha’s…. Those No-BS traps are incredible and will be my go to.

IF you want a trap that will fire no matter what No Bs wire levers are it !! 23 days. 3 rains caught coyote. IF you want to = double up screen wire AND use a underall type thing under pan ? They are unstoppable!!!!

How do they set with the wire levers. Easy enough to hand set? Or do you need a setter?

I set them by hand, but they are stout

Depends on how stout you are.

I have some of the extreme wire lever 4 coils, I can set by hand but prefer to use the setter.

The 2 coil solid levers are a good trap too and a breeze to set by hand.

Good 2 coil traps are plenty strong for any animal I trap, and I don't need setters or have to struggle to release an animal if necessary.

How do the jr's do on deer?
I have some mb550s that are great, but these intrigue me as a dogless option.

Waiting for someone to answer this…releasing deer isn’t something I really want to experience, lol.

I caught a 60# yearly last spring, no way it would have gotten out of the trap on it's own.

Scared to death it was going to be difficult to release but it wasn't. Kind of tackled it with a big furniture pad that I had in the truck and it calmed down an just laid there until I released it. A 100# doe or buck may be a bit more difficult.

Have a video on my phone of the release but I'm not sure it can be uploaded here.
