ND
The main reason we roll our beans is to press the rocks into the ground and keep them out of the combine. Everyone around here uses the solid rollers. The solid rollers are around 400-450 pounds per foot, as compaired to 100-130 with the flexicoil. I'd bet the coil packer would tend to pick up rocks and wedge them between the tines. The solid rolller will also leave more of a table top finish. I don't know what your area is like. I guess if you didn't have rocks the coil packer could work, but I would think it would pretty inferior to a solid roller in rocky ground.
