Mark; I appreciate the post about the Straight Shooter. I bought one to use during deer season with corn. Next thought was to try it for fish pellets. The thing was a total bust as a corn feeder. It stayed stopped up so much that I got disgusted and replaced it. I figure the feeder fitting flush against the exit hole in the barrel contributed to the problem. Also having a small opening and not being a spin feeder contributed to the problem. I'm going to try it with pellets in the Spring but will start out with a hanging 5 gallon bucket.
