Gunflint, I see you have the standard snowdog how deep of snow can you go through, I have a compact 13hp one on a couple lakes I fish access is through road ditch ok going down but coming up the ditch I sometimes have trouble. Plenty of snow here in western Minnesota.
Powder is tough, for sure. The issue is not POWER but TRACTION. Today I was hauling all of that through 12 inches of powder on top of the ice. There is also the issue that the Dog is only 2 feet wide and the X300 is 4 feet wide and so it plows the powder as well.It worked.Still, it is much easier if there is a packed trail. If there is a hardpacked or iced trail I could pull twice that load.
Do you think that the traction could be helped by adding studs or is it just the lack of dead weight? And if you wanted to add a deeper lug track, what size is the track? A 121"? Do you know the pitch of the drivers?
