definatly
there is some blow back which causes the balls to not feed right with the classic feed. The powerfeed eliminates most of that.

Before I used a pf mag I thought that pf was no big deal, and not worth the money, but it really is worth the cash. I can outshoot a 12v rev with out even trying on my standard feed mag, but on my friends powerfeed mag with intellifeed It took a little bit to outshoot it.

I have a mini but I have shot a classic and it worked great. If you plan any type of electro trigger I would get a PF but if it means getting a mag or not I would get a mag. I would guess that PF bodies will be under $100 in a year and the change is very easy. Do not shorten the long feed tube though as I have heard of people doing. The long ball stack is required to have it feed right. Good luck.

re: power feeds, why are they so much more then s/f? the smallest difference in price I've seen was $70. i just don't see why the differences between the bodies would justify a substantially higher amount.

Sorry man i must disagree with you ! I had a sf body a while ago and i hated the mag i was at the point where i was goin to sell it because i kept chopping balls. Even when i used small paint in a large bore barrel and a 12v revvi i was chopping at anything past 3 bps. i finally had the feed tube cut down to a inch and i didn't chop anymore and i could just about outshoot my 12v revvi, so i guess it is all up to personal preference but i liked it and if i eva got another sf i would cut the feed tube down again if it was not already cut down.

there is a pic of it cut down, i dont remember if the hopper is on it or not, but you can see that they hopper is/would be much tighter to the gun, and lets me stay hidden behind bunkers better.
