Choosing a Hopper

[Jontain]

hey guys, ive only ever used a gravity fed hopper and im just looking to upgrade and see whats out their, ive looked at the obvious ones such as the halo etc but i dont know near enough about the differences.

Just wondering if ne one can shed some light on the subject, also what do you think to the ricochet hoppers like the 2K and the AK

If I ever have a problem with my Halos I switch to my Ricochet Apache, and I don't get hits on the battery door I still think its a great loader between the Egg and the Halo/Reloaders.

I might be a good Idea if you posted what you are shooting and what you play mate

Well atm ive only really started getting into paintball, basically wanna try everything, bought a c98 to start with, which yeah i know doesnt need the bps rate of an amazing hopper etc but im just sorta thinking ahead. I dont intend to stick with the 98 forever and there are so many different hoppers out there too choose from.

Though there is something about the ricochet that i really like, i think the shape is awesome. Also because i obviously dont need the feed rate that a high spec electric marker needs the ricochets seem to fit in the middle at on av. 12bps.

After my tippmann im planning on getting a electric marker (probs like the ion) and im just sorta trying to weigh out the pros and cons of things, if i was to get the ricochet would it be to slow in the future?

if you want a decent hopper that will last you i would go with a vlocity if you dont wanna spend massive amounts on a pulse. Its light and will work well on whichever marker you eventually decide to upgrade to

 

[Jontain]

Any more word on the ricochet guys?

 

[Sabot]

if you want one i have 2 for sale.

 

[Jontain]

I havnt got enough money at the moment mate,

though il ask in the near future

How do you find them, they work well?, also what model do you have?

 

[achilles]

dont rule out the pulse dude, it does seems to be an awesome hopper from what iv heard

 

[Maddogwhitey]

the pulse seems alright. loving the polycarbonate whatsit cant break me shell.

not a big fan of burning things onto my board...

burning things yes...expenive things that will ruin my gat...no.

Now burning someone elses gat...well thats different
