You can find some information about them here. Don't know if it gives the capacity.

Kevin and Jim had a lot of those pipes of two different types if I recall correctly placed on the Reed Ranch when we were out there hunting with them. The hogs sured seemed to like them and in time sure enough destroyed them but the pipe is cheap and easily replaced. I think they eventually just got to digging holes and filling them with corn.

I've seen pictures of them on the Reed Ranch website, and pieces of pvc, but I don't think they still have any in operation. However, if I get around to assembling it this week (all ten minutes of assembly) I will be setting one up this weekend.
