That drill only has 500in/lb for torque, so it’ll prob work for up to a 6” auger. It’s recomended to have at least 700in/lb for most ice auger uses.

I'd call it a good deal...whether you use it with your augers or not.

Milwaukee 2804-22.  You could also find the 2704-22 kit on sale right now as it's the previous generation that they are phasing out.  That new Ridgid 1300in/lb drill will turn it too, but it just same out and nobody's had a chance to try it on an auger yet to review.

Go for any dril with over 1,000in/lbs.

Milwaukee, Makita, and now ridged have drills that are over 1,000 in/lbs.
