My benchmark is a 5x6 properly rolled and moisture level at 1600#. With that benchmark, you would be running right at 900# under the same conditions on a 5x4.5. A 4x6 would come in at 1200#........as I see it. I downsized from a JD 530 5x6 to a 375 which rolls 5x4s for a tad over 700#. Makes for a lot easier bale to move about and feed with a smaller tractor. I roll with a Branson 6530 at 57 PTO and no problems.
As I mentioned earlier today, I had a Hesston 5560 as I recall and it was closed throat making starting a roll of sorghum sudan tricky.....you had to give it time to "gobble" the wad and start the roll before you started feeding it any volume of material to speak of. Once started, it baled ok as long as the WW wasn't too big.
