Which one do you find tends to produce more? My bank uses Loomis but the boxes have been skimpy for the most part compared to some of the finds you folks have shown.
4 boxes of Halves = 9 40% clads
6 boxes dimes = 5 Rosies
1 box nickels = 1 War

I know a lot are switching to CWR but my bank never seems to have any.

It's not that people are "switching". It is just another source to search. I just rocked 8 boxes from Loomis for a single '69 and a crappy 74-D DDO that I would have thrown back but it does have some nice toning. I've always preferred Brinks. Not just because the results are better, but their box is sturdier. Loomis flat boxes are crap. The sides split out quite frequently.
 
My banks use Loomis and today I got 1-90% and 6-40% out of two boxes I am happy with that.
 
banks around me either use garda or brinks
 
Brinks is terrible in my area. Loomis and Garda are GTG. I have found silver in all three.

Those are actually good averages... Way better than mine. It will be interesting at the end of the month when I total up my first month.
 
I search what I search becuase the pickup and dump system just better for me. I think that you're going to find silver in what ever you search, granted, in a certain area one might be better than another but, you're not going to know till you try some boxes out from that carrier. I see people say that Brinks sucks, I find silver in brinks, I also see killer Garda boxes posted on here all the time, Garda doesn't seem to produce for me as well, but maybe I haven't tried enough. Like I said, you might have to search a certain carrier just because the system of pivking up and dumping works better that way. In my situation, this is the case, it's just easier for me.
