Halo B w/ V-board. Best out there besides q-loader. But the Victory Board 35 bps madness ultimate over kill besides Q's.

Rip drive is when your batteries die in a game, you can preload 12 balls and shoot them. Its just a manual load thing if your batteries die.

Victory board costs about $30.

the angels and timmys dont like force feeding hoppers i believe.
if you get an egg with a z board its still pretty fast so...
i dont know wether the problem with force feeding would outway the speed difference though...

edit: are there multiple versions of the halo B, like how there are multiple versions of the TSA

I say get a Z-Coded Halo B w/ RIP Drive and Victory Board.

The Z-Code comes stock in all new Halo B's now, and the RIP Drive is optional. Victory Board is great too, but is aftermarket only. It's basically over kill for any marker so you "never" have to worry about a ball chop from it. The RIP Drive is a thing on the bottom of the Halo B, and the object is that when your batteries die, you can turn this, and the Halo B will feed a small number of paintballs as if the batteries still had some juice left in them. It's a manual feed.

The newer Angels like Speed, A4 and A4-fly love halo's. They fixed the ball detent and feeding problem. Now they have gated feed so it works fine.

Timmy's are MADE for Halo's. I don't know what your talking about though.

Odyssey HALO B-

One of the most populare loaders on the market. True force feed. Feeds a proven 22+ balls per second. There are various upgrades for it, such as new boards and "rip drive". It'll cost you a bit though, over $100 depending on the board. Hold 160 rounds.

NOTE: The Halo is not reccomended for angels or intimidators with stock ball detents. Post these questions in the appropriate forums.
thats from the sticky.
anyway, no support for the reloader B? is it compatable with the v-board and shouldnt that be an obvious choice since it comes with a rip drive and doesnt care what color the paint is.

It does NOT support a Victory Board. The Reloader B is not looked down upon. Just most people prefer a Halo B w/ rip over a sound activated hopper.

Read the thread halo or egg it should help you out.

The reloader B is sound activated, which I just dont like. Also I'm not sure but I think it doesnt have the seperate casing for the impellers and feed tube like the halo has, which isn't bad but it isn't good either.

First time I got my gun and haloB I bought 1 and a half cases of black/black shelled paint with white fill. The Halo never messed up when I was shooting it.
