    Hopper composition ?

    This will be a strange thread, so please bear with me.

    What are Revy, Halo, and Rico shells made of and what are the solvents for those?

    I don't like VF markers in general because I prefer to sight along the top of the barrel, but I also want a low profile hopper. I just came back from D-Day where I was running a Qloader. It worked fine in the morning, but by 10:30 the 95* weather + 75% humidity made the shells of the paintballs tacky enough they were sticking together inside the feed tube, effectively blocking it. I had to switch out to a revy for the rest of the day. I presume a warp feed would have the same issue under the same circumstances since it also puts the stack of balls under pressure. So, to reduce the profile of a conventional hopper as low as possible, I want to change the feed coming out of the hopper to 45* and hook that up to the marker feedneck directly.

    Apologies for the length, but I knew someone would ask for an explanation sooner or later.
