It's 30 gallon...
A couple people used them at an old lease and seemed to work well. No real issues

He can almost double the capacity with a 55 gal drum. That is what I use and I only have 15+ acres to hunt now. I have very light deer density, in fact my neighbor who also has 15 acres has a 55 feeder, yes, the deer make the rounds, but I still only get about 1-2 months of run time. On 40 acres I'd have a 55 gal just to avoid constant re-filling, if you throw a lot and have the deer to clean it up.
As far as the product, sorry I have never tried that one.

I would recommend a 55gallon drum and an all seasons unit.

I've heard nothing but good things about the pro magnum, what do you recommend How much do you want to spend and are you willing to pay for quality/longevity? What Rick posted above, or contact TXAg on here, I bought a 12v timer for the barrel I had from him and it is super. Here is one of his threads with his webpage link. http://texashuntingforum.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/5681333/Announcing_Weaverbilt_Feeders
