I cant decide between the two, i like the shape of the vlocity but i like the shape of the pulse lol, it says the vlocity is capable of 35bps on freefall or sumthin, wot duz that mean? 51% of my mind says vlocity but just thought id get a second oppinion

Yeah the vlocity may have a freefall of 35bps but it is not that when attached to a marker.

If i remember rightly the pulse has a freefall of about 40bps and a 28bps marker feed rate.

The only thing that the vlocity has on the pulse is that it is slightly lighter

Yer but the pulse is about the same size as the Halo, n they are quite big, what about when it comes to reliablity, efficiency etc...

Pulse

The pulse has a very good battery life and as for reliability the only common fault is that the feedneck can snap easily if you overtighten the the feedneck clamp.

Vlocity

The vlocity from what i hear is the mustang of batteries, it sucks them dry quick and have not heard many faults of it apart from shell cracking over time

I think any gat can be synced (sp?) with an RF chip but there are a few that are not compatible such as the ego 7 (without an expansion board anyway).

If yours is compatible then get the pulse as you can get an RF chip later on and really use it to its full potential :) Plus they are flying around on here now for about 40-60 quid :eek:

Currently using an reloader b on my ego 7, very reliable and hasn't let me down :)

Mite get a pulse in the near future if i see another cheapy one going, though i would have to get my ego's board changed before i can RF it :(

If you can decide between either, get the reloader, its the best of both worlds :D
