Tippmann A-5. You wont have to buy an electronic hopper(comes with one and has cyclone feed). Just a perfect marker for woods ball and also you can get the flat line barrel if you want more distance.
yea YamahaRaptor i am gonna play speed ball as well. any other suggestions.
i dont know too much about that so have someone else reply but i've played with one a-5 on speedball and it worked fine as long as you have a double trigger.
i would get a spyder imagine or some piranha
spyder imagine=130
electric hopper=50
Mask=50
tank=20
____________
$250

Imagine is a good marker for the price. You could get a tippman 98 custom for around there as well but It's a gas hog and not exactly the best for speedball.

Keep in mind that if you go to a pro shop everything is going to be much more expensive, so you should try ordering off of the internet. I ordered my cocker and it got here after a few delays and what not.
Tippmann 98c = $130
Gravity Feed hopper = Free(with marker)
Tools&Cleaning supplies(Allen Wrenches, various squeeges, Gun oil) = $10
Mask(try it on before buying) = $50
20oz CO2 tank = $20
J&J Ceramic Barrel = $30

total = $240


Actually this package might be better for speedball because even if the imagine is faster stock barrels suck ass.

He already has a mask, so he can get a 50 dollar barrel instead.
Spyder imagine-140
12vlt Revolutioin hopper- 50
20oz co2=20buxs
Spyder E-99 or Spyder Imagine, 48ci/3000psi HPA tank and Revvy hopper.
Its as simple as this

Highly upgradable Spyder Imagine, Faster stock, electric

or a big junky 300 dollar gun with a blender on the side

"A blender" Im pretty sure that A-5's cyclone feed systems dont break balls very often...
Sweet.... Ok well here is what I would do if I were in your shoes.

I would buy a Spyder Imagine for 120$ leaving you with 180$. Next I would get the essentials out of the way a 47/3000 PE air tank. I love this tank because it is so cheap! This is 80$ leaving you with 100$ for a hopper and little upgrades.
Next a empire reloader for 45$ is awsome. Now 55$ remains for upgrades and shipping. For 35$ a smart parts proggressive barrell will increase accuracy immediatly. Leaving 20$ for shipping and handiling. Which is awsome. But if you dont want the air tank and would rather go Co2 you can go with the second list. All of that stuff will equal 300$ with shipping and handeling or close to it.
