I have a Greenfield mini pivot from Zimmactic 660' with a end gun. When my pivot is on the low side end is only 10' above the water source when it is 180 degrees it is 90+ feet above water source, my 20hp pump puts out about 235gpm @ 100psi. I have tight soil so i run Nelson rotators regulated to 12psi. Some towers climb up to 20% which is at design limit for 90' spans,I have 4 90's and 3 100,s I've run this system for 13 years.

About 50% of the new systems here are T&L oil drives as very few rancher here are good at trouble shooting electrics.
