    Halo Q's

    I really hate to ask this. I have searched on the subject and really can find no definite answer to my questions.
    Here's the deal. I'm shopping for a new loader, egg is cracked and I don't want to buy shells, and revy isn't qutie fast enough, but the new loader I'd like to be able to run on all my guns. 2 of my three guns I figure I can run a halo on reasonably well without much difficulty. here is where I'm getting hung up. I have a mag that still uses twist lock barrels and a regular powerfeed body. I am not about to go to ule yet on that particular gun, I don't want to lose the ability to use those barrels anymore. I keep finding conflicting accounts on whether it will or will not work with plastic nubbins.
    So here it is:
    -Do they work, if so what are your experiences
    -Did you have to modify anything
    -Any suggestions
    Mostly i'm thinking its just internet rumors that the two won't work. See I don't really want to buy 2 hoppers right now and I don't want to just drop 120 bucks on something that I can't use all the time.

    I know this is not going to help you very much...but I have a micro e-mag and have been having a lot of problems with it double feeding with the halo. I think it is the way the detents like that are shaped, like a piece sticking in the chamber. I think the ball shaped detents will work a lot better. Just giving my scenario!

      as a thought, the halo was tested in an original e-mag, contact oddsey and ask then how they did it, and what they suggest

        the halos designer runs alot of mags i know it was first test with the older emags and there are several videos on the website of him hitting 15-18 bps on an emag...secondly i am yet to try it for myself but i wouldnt think it would be a problem.. i mean the warp feed uses the same method of feeding as in it forces paint into the chamber much like the halo except they use different methods one is constant pressure while the other is springloaded pressure!!!! hope that helps...

          I've decided on and ordered a halo b. All those videos except one were with powerfeed mags. I'm pretty sure it will work out alright. The only thing I might have problems with is I shoot big ball with a purpleish shell a lot, so that may not work out anymore. Plus I still have an old pre x-board revie that I can use if I need to.

              Works fine, sand down the loader neck until it's snug (not too lose, not too tight).
