Only draw back to the Ferox for mining is I have to make MUCH MORE FREQUENT trips back and forth from the asteroid field to the space station to drop off loads. Even with 3 Cargo extenders.

The mining barges are much more efficient. Once you get to the Covetor it will at the very least double your ISK/hour if not triple it. All you have to do for barges is get your drone skills to lvl 4/5 so you can have drones kill the rats. I had 4 drones on my retriever and they could take rats down to .5 sec without trouble. All the barges have room for drones. Also the covetor can get you up around 12,000 M^3 of cargo space with cargo extender II's which is plenty. Or you can do what I did and mine in to a jet can and then get my badger mark II' with 12,500 M^3 of cargo space to haul it back to the station.
