Just ordered a new S6... but I'm having a hard time deciding on a hopper.

I don't want a 50 rd hopper.

So my choices are...

1) Sport Shot-- I heard it has to be modified to make it worth anything
2) VL200-- Basic basic basic
3) Empire Revy
4) Ricochet AK
5) Ricochet 2K G2K -- Basic like the VL200 but suppose to be better?
6) Ricochet Rhino-
7)??

Im leaning towards one of the ricochets or a modified sport shot.

Things that are important to me...

Must hold at least 100 rounds
I don't want to chop when im using the A/T

so should i go the electronic way or the gravity fed way? Opinions?

BTW: I will be using a 45/4500 tank if that matters....

Modified SPORT SHOT, or a 12V Revy.

Hands down the best is going to be a 50 rounder tho, the Winchester with a Pod snap lid is the BOMB

Height & large area is NOT what you want on a pump !!

Not really fond of reloading costantly... Would the Sport Shot (modified) have troubles keeping up with the AT?

Narayan,

In short - no. I was the first one to experiment with the Sportshot and heavily modify it.

All of Pumpenstein uses these - and as many have charged us with - we are AT WHORES! No feeding issues.

Agreed... Sportshot. If you want a electro hopper Ricochet all the way! They are light and 1 9v has lasted me for years.

No problems for me using an Empire revy, hold a few more balls so I can AT all the time on the breakouts. I have concidered going with a lower profile hopper but like the capacity the revy has. Might get a sportshot and give it a try, see them out there all the time so they must be good.

What about the gravity Richochet the g2k? anyone us that? how big is the hopper?

[Drachen]

I have the gravity Richochet, and I'm not a big fan of it. I use the basic VL200 a lot more than the Richochet one. The Richochet seems a bit larger. A little longer, and wider than the VL200. But the sides on it seem to somewhat avoid getting hopper shots on it. Though I've never really had too many hopper shots when I'm using mine. I use the AT on my Trracer with it, with no chopping problems. Though I'm not sure how it would do with a S6, as I've never shot a S6 (other snipers, just not that specific one)

What about an APP hopper?

Most of the time I just use my Winchester Pocket hopper when playing rec. Also for OSC when you are only allowed to carry 40 rounds (3man) A pocket is the way to go.And yes I AT all the time and have only rarely had a issue. For five man events I will go with my 12V Revy(since you can carry 60 rounds) and for almost every Top Gun event I've done I've used my Halo B-w-Rip drive since they have all been unlimitd paint.
