I've read alot about the ULE bodies for mags. Are ULE bodies and a nice autococker barrel generaly better than getting a nice Automag barrel? Accuracy? Feed rate? Which should I get?

Accuracy: exact same
Feed rate: exact same

However,

Weight: MUCH lighter
Looks: More color options

Actually, vert feeds do feed faster.

the major advantage to the ule body is that all the top end barrels are available in cocker threads...and hardly and of the newer barrels and kits are coming out in twist lock.

I have actually heard differently. I think i read somewhere that side feeds (or powerfeeds) feed faster because there are more paintballs lined up and are putting more force on them so they are forced into the chamber faster....i could be wrong though:confused:

force feed loaders work better with a shorter feed tube.

Sure it's "worth" it,it's a nice peice of milling and anno.

Whether it's worth it to you depends on you.

Cant't find the barrel you want in twist lock?
Your Mags getting to heavy?
Your Mags not "pretty" enough?
You don't like the look of SS?
You want a low rise vert feed?
You want a locking feed neck?
Your favorite color is "ICE"?

;)

You decide,but it is a nice addition to most Mags.

couldn't have said it better myself jay, granted i did like the stainless steel look, and went for the nickle over ice, sorry!

but yeah, between the barrel, vert feed, and the weight savings, i'd say it was worth it for this guy!

that being said, my other mag still is powerfed, stainless, and takes twist locks, it's also got the warp feed and 3 dye barrels to justify it.....though she is a bit on the heavy side of things!!!!

cheers!

If you are thinking of a ULE for an Emag then DEFINATELY.
A ULE will help out alot. It will help you stop chopping paint as much if you have a revy. Of course if you have a Halo that wasn't a problem in the first place.

No, powerfeeds feed faster.
