Don't agree mikey or pknutz. I reload when i'm getting low. Usually that's 20 balls or so. Ie; usually it fits in a reloader. If it doesn't, i spill 15 balls out the top and don't cry in my pillow at night.

Maybe i should reload earlier. My experience is that it doesn't work like that in a game and i don't see the increased capacity of the vlocity as any kind of advantage. I'm not anti them at all except I think they're dog ugly, i just don't accept the capacity as any kind of advantage, as I didn't with eggs over halos

I would never let my hopper go as low as 20-30 balls, sometimes your oppostion will make a killer move and you have to lay the paint immediately, can't faff around at that point.

When the hopper is half empty (say 90 balls left), I start pulling my next pot out and start reloading. The extra capacity of the Vlocity is a handy feature in my book.

i hear they got great adjustable capabilities also, the question is do they feed as hard as a halo,my empire seems to wear my detents down pretty quick
also they are cheaper than a halo or empire which could be a deciding factor,

still goin to stick with me empire for now though :p

What these things like to open up and clean if you get a break in them? Guessing they have to be easier than the reloader!! :)

Still in 2 minds on to go for a reloader again or one of these...

You won't be disappointed by the performance.

If you have a break in the hopper or feedneck they are fairly easy to take apart. What some people have done is cut some of the opening as there is quite a large overlap of lid and hopper, this way you can fairly easily get even quite large hands in there so sometimes there is not a need to take it apart at all.
