How tough are Bridger 330's? Do the springs last? How are they compared to a Belisle?

I have couple Bridger 220s and my 2ยข is that our Canadian made traps have longer lasting springs. I don't own any Bridger 330 so can't talk about them.
But for a "cheap good" conibear type trap... Bridger are ok.
My 110s are all Bridger

Out of the box, the Bridger 330s have stronger springs than the Dukes. I never worked with any of the Canadian bodygrips to compare them to though.

Out of the box they are harder to set than a belisle 330 magnum.
I have owned both.
I like them and am going to get more.
The reason I like them is I set alot of runs under ice that barely have enough water to cover a regular 330 and the bridgers are an inch smaller.
I dont worry too much about longevity. I generally trade about every 4-5 years. Can usually sell them and for couple bucks more have new ones.

I own some bridger 330's an dmy only problem with them is the spring eyes are smaller than my victors and BMI traps.They are tough to remove a animal in to me because I don't carry a setting tool but other than that they are a fine trap and have held up well for me

I like the bridgers pretty good. Their not as good as the sav's or belisles but pretty good non the less.

I have used my Bridgers now for 4 years and like them. They still have strong springs. I have some Sleepy Creek's also and I like them too.

I only have a couple of Bridger 330's. They are in their 3rd year and doing find. I bought some of 3 brands that year just to compare and the Bridger has probably the strongest springs. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase more if needed!
