mchale C460 straw chopper/feeder

[DanT171]

Due to new livestock shed and lack of time we are after a used mchale c460 straw chopper, seem to be quite rare secondhand just wondered if anyone knew of any coming up or had one they wanted to sell thanks.

Morning,
We have a Demo C460 in stock currently which has had just 2 bales through it at our last open day - available at £11500.00 +VAT if this is of interest?

Hi thankyou for getting in touch but unfortuntly that's too close to new for us to afford at this point in time. Thanks

Why Mchale? Kuhn (and others) equally as good,

We have a linkage mounted Kuhn Primor 2060, and can't fault it

Not sure really, there kit seems really well built, robust, I have ran mchale wrappers for some years now and always been good. I hear good reports about them and we have plenty of dealers for them in our area rob with Wardmans and David Eaton tractors etc.

Both good dealers but as I said before, our Kuhn has been no trouble... i'm sure you know who the dealer is!!!

Lol yes I think I may of seen the dealer about. Iv never owned or even used a straw chopper before so will see. Now the new shed is up and we have the pig tents I'm trying to sort one as time is real issue at the min with the contracting side and there's no way Mrs is bedding everything up. Only prob is valtra is 200hp so might be abit of overkill going on till we saved abit of money and sourced something smaller.

If it's linkage mounted then you need a fair tractor on front, we have 135hp on the front and it can make it fart!

Oh rite, no its trailed th 460 is. Would of thought that power would be wel on top of it ?

 

[Rob Holmes]

Don't get me wrong, 100 hp would be enough, but if you have some wet silage then 200 hp would not be wasted!
