I've heard a lot of weights over the years, from back in the 1980's when my new holland dealer who sold me my third chain baler told me the bales would weigh 1100 pounds right up to people who swear its got to weight ....
What I know, first person, for fact, as an interstate hay shipper is 700 on the low end to 900 on the high end depending on bulk density settings of the belts, type of hay, and baler settings gets every load of 4x5's I've put on a semi as an average weight going across the scales. From my own production, this is timothy orchard mix, 840 average, belt pressure set at 1400 psi on the baler meter, belts cut and sized annually by NH dealer on a 4x5 netwrap out of a 450 NH baler, 3 years old.

I don't scale 5x5s as I wont haul them (strictly purchase, delivered, from local sources).

I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
