Just to test them, I hung from one. I weigh a hefty 240. And I only have them on my bodygrips.

I use a cable loop just like that on my conibears also,only I use the regular swivels on mine.I have a bunch of cables ,in different lengths,for dfferent situations.On them I have Quick links so the attachment is pretty quick.That way instead of going thru all the traps to find one with the right length of cable ,I just attach the right size.Also saves from having a tangled mess lol.

I have had catfish pop them like a bread wrapper tie and they were not 240 #s. I think they would be swell on a 110 coni just dont be tempted to try them on a foot trap.
I get free scraps of cable at work and just swage loops at each end. I prefer cable over chain in some situations.

I like the cable in rocks just keep looping till ya get to your tree.

Agreed, not appropriate for use on footholds. I edited my original post to clarify that. I plan to rig the rest of my bodygrips this way, 110-330s. Free scraps are always nice...

Really the only reason to heavily anchor 110 rat traps is in case a coon gets in one.
I admire the fact that you edited your post for clarity.

Thanks for pointing it out.
