I have a bunch of Victor #3's and I bought a couple of the MB 550's to try. Night and day difference with the 550's being better.
4 coils on the 550's. Tons more holding power and the trap just seems to be built better.
I had a coyote pull a jaw off a victor #3 2 years ago. It popped right out of the frame of the trap. I had it on a drag, but the drag caught on a tree and he gave a few more pulls and popped the trap apart. I tried to fix the trap, but the main frame was bent too much so I tossed it. Can't see this happening with the 550's.
The trigger on the 550's seems better as well. Very easy to set right. And the pan hardly needs to move to fire.
I'll be buying 550's for coyote from now on
