I've heard you still have to shake it.

I have one. You shake it less, for sure. Definitely an improvement over a VL-200, especially when you don't fill it all the way. When completely full it rather sucks, but leave some room off the top and it feeds decently.

So, how consistant does it feed? Like on average, how many balls can you shoot before you have to shake it? I've had some gravity hoppers, that I've had to shake almost every 3 shots. I assume this would be better?

We have these on our rentals at the field. Seem to feed decently, slightly better performance than a vl200 if at all.

I had one and found that the lid was difficult to get shut and keep shut. Shortly thereafter, I got a VL Revolution 12v and noticed a big change in feed rates.

This loader would be better if it had the VL snap-close lid.
