    OMG! Another what hopper thread?!

    Seriously, I'm in indescision here.

    I've narrowed it down to three choices:

    Revvy 200 round

    shake and bake 200 round (with the channel underneath)

    Other. lol.

    Seriously, I'm shooting a classic triggered automag right now, I don't need speed, I need reliability and ease of use.

    I want a hopper built by a genuis for dummys.

    So post up what you think.

    Revvy FTW.

    The only other thing I would consider at the moment would be a vlocity.

    By the way... its Shake and Pray.

      Revy's are incredibly simple and reliable.

        Pre-BE shelled Revvy. Otherwise, go for a Ricochet AK. They're cheap, simple, reliable, and just as fast as a Revvy. Oh, and they only require one 9v to do 12bps whereas the Revvy requires 2 9v's to do the same speed.

        Just don't bother with a Revvy unless it has the older style shells.

          Looks like it's revvy time.

            revvy, hands down, THE BEST HOPPER out there! haha, if i had an ego, or a marq, or any of the fast guns out nowadays, i'd rock my revvy over anything else because its sooo reliable. if not a revvy, a regular old VL 200 will do the job.

              if your looking for a "hopper for dummies" (sort of like those yellow book series) and your shooting a clasic mag ,not @ 21 +bps ,well i got to say that the revy is the all around ,maintenance free,all reliable hopper ,imho
              now when i wip out the Xmag ,....i also break out the halo V35

                See I'd think of the Rico AK as more maintenance free and user friendly. Only one battery, the shells are sturdier, the o-ring neck makes it easy to fit on any feedneck, simple, reliable feeding. It's more consistent than a Revy too IMO.

                  I use a Rico AK. Great hopper even for my xvalved mag w/ULT because there's no need to shoot faster than that.

                  Either AK or Revvy. I like the AK because it's only 1 battery.

                    I would say revvy but the shells and particularly the door is a weakness an will cause you to replace it long before other hoppers.

                    I am using a velocity with a virtue chip for all my mags since, you got it... my revvy fill door broke off.

                      Revvy or Reloader 2. I wont go back to the old shake and pray after a disaster I had. 3 balls in the VL2000 stuck together (cheap paint + hot and humid = Micky Mouse head looking thing jamming the feed neck) which cost me the game. An agitating hopper moves things around and doesn't usually allow paint time to stick together.

                      My 2 cents.

                        any 100 or 50 rounder is the way to go.

                          I have a halo backman and I like it alot , its a bit heavier but its built sturdier than a revy and its sound actuated so its like having it itellifed without the cable.
