It's not a contest. The man asked what would be good for that tractor and he needs to understand that depending on where you are normal is different. I would hate to have a 450 with a 3-16 or a 3-14 when in the soils here I would never be able to pull it deep enough to make it worth while. If your only going to plow 5 or 6" deep might as well pull a disk and leave the plow in the barn. Like I stated below I'm pulling a 2-16 tumble plow here in my soil with an 856 and it works the tractor. I'm pulling it 6 mph. I would never pull it with a 450 since I would have to pull it so slow it would take days longer to finish. I have a nice little performance calculator that IH gave out years ago and it shows acres cover by width and speed. 2-16's at 6mph is almost 2-1/4 acres per hour. 3-16's at 3-3/4 mph which would be 2nd gear on a 450 would be a little more than 1-3/4 acres per hour. I know a 450 would not pull in 3rd in my ground. So I would rather pull 2 bottoms faster and easier than 3 bottoms harder and slower.
