I currently using a Dye Matrix marker and I have managed 22 shots per second but the only problem is I can't get a hopper fast enough to accommodate that kind of speed.

Currently using View Laoder 12V.

Any suggestions?? Cheap and nice??

Some people swear by Halo B's by Odessey, others favour EvlutionII's from Viewloader. I'm in the latter group, for various reasons. Price, and dependability. They also don't chew batteries like Halo's.

To get the best youd need a Halo but they are pretty dear if you didnt want to spend a lot.

A bit cheaper is an Evolution II or egg(yaaaaaaaaay), but its not as fast as a Halo, but i like them and they load faster than ill shoot for a while so it does me fine

Check this out for some more options and ideas http://www.paintballshop.com.au/shop.php

Does the Halo B fits in the Matrix DM 03?? or do I have to buy an elbow?? and they are very costly too here.... about RM480 Aussie Dollars is 171.42.... Is it costly there??

They should fit. I use one on my DM4.
I've got Halo B's in stock.
$210.00
$250.00 with Rip drive
$310.00 With Rip drive & Victory board.

chew batteries like Halo's
if your Halo b with Z or Vitory board is chewing batteries something is wrong as all the Halos we use can go for days on one set

arent the old matrixes center feed anyway?

so you shouldnt need an elbow?


Evo's would keep up and use less batteries. but they ugly!

What about the empire loader. These things rip the field up. :armed:

Bear....have you tried speaking to Da Boss Bandito. He can get the halos and eggs. You might save some money that way. :thumbsup:

How I managed 22 shots per second?? Easy, Its all finger works mate...... The Matrix DM3 LCD does not come with auto burse so I did it with my fingers.... This tactic was shown to me by a friend of mine in the UK... He can shoot 24 sps how's that??? doesnt matter dry shooting of with paints in the hopper but he really did it!!!

TIPS!!
We normally shoot with 2 fingers right?? but this was done with only one finger. All you need to do is stroke the trigger on the middle part of your trigger with your middle finger. The technic is using your Middle finger stroke it in between the finger tip and your nail. Tell me if it works on you??

hey thanks guys, nice reviews on hoppers.... I know what to get know..

Hey Paul, good to see you in here dude...

Cheers mates

I hope your joking Yzo, and Bear that technique is called trigger raking its pretty insane hey can get some mad Rate of Fire hey.
but no way would i do it in a game very hard if not impossible to control your marker and profile correctly whilst doing it.

Halos are fine on the batteries as long as you disconnect them after a days play and dont let them sit in their draining away...depending on the batteries should get 2-3 days play.

22bps with a 12 volt Revo.................................... :lol:

LOL- seriously doubt that!

Yeah disconnect halo batteries and will last for ages! Would definately go the halo or egg as only things that will keep up.

Yup

Well i have an egg.. lasted longer than the Halo. But i have 2 halo's
Halo shells i find fragile, and you need a spare if you treat them like a bitch.

So what's best??? The egg or the halo???

Thanks for the term use Deadeye... me over here is not too educated about the terms used in paintball yet. I'm just seeing and learning..... For now heheheh..... ope to learn more from you mates.... We are way back in time on paintball here in Malaysia.

Is that what you call it Trigger raking?? But I did it with my thumb and palm resting at the back of my trigger... so thats why I get pretty accurate while firing..... But you can say that again mate, will never do that in a tourney..... I guess before the game end I'll be out of paints...hahahah

cheers mate

Yeah its called trigger raking, can get some sick rof happening..ElectroFunkster on this forum can get his dynasty shocker going and its a machine gun when he does it.

For the hopper a egg realisticilly wont feed much more than 13bps consistently, Halo can do much more, people outshoot eggs really easy but good luck outshooting a Victory board Halo. I think both are just as fragile as each other..so go for performance which is with the Halo.

Really easy, are you on drugs again ?
80% of OZ Ballers I have seen cant shoot past 10 bps.

Get a Halo if you want performance.

eggs be slow Ben everyone can outshoot them now with the slammin machine guns on the fields. You should have seen masters teams shooting 30 cases of paint n stuff machine guns everywhere u would have liked it.

AGGS

F2 shot 30 :D

I only shot like 1 or 2, but i made mine count :lol:

yeah we chewed through the paint, I sold my egg for a halo, though I will admit the halo is a lot more temprimental, batteries are the real let down, but in feed rate and angle of feed halos have it down, saw a guy on F2 I think laying his hopper horizonatlly and still shooting ropes of paint :clap:

my halo drained its brand new batteries towards the end of the second day, and it had been disconnected overnight

AGGS
09-11-2004, 12:14 PM

gaia was playing with dynasty with a halo on it she would have been shooting it on the side (jumbie)... and Liz had a halo on a DM4 but I doubt she would have been shooting it sideways

If you want to see what sort of feed rates can be achieved by the differnt loaders, have a look at this article. They reviewed and tested the most popular models and have average rates of feed.

Interesting article - Warpig - Loader Lineup (http://www.warpig.com/paintball/technical/loaders/lineup2/index.shtml)

Enjoy
