      You cant beat the new Spires. There is also a new lower end one that is really good too I just cant think of the name of it.

        depending how fast or quickly you are planning to shoot a spire may not be fast enough. I outshoot spires with mags and mech cockers because the ball stack and time to start the agitation is to long.

            Spire 3, you can adjust pretty much any parameter you want.

            Dye wouldn't be a bad choice either though

              I guess my only real concern is chopping paint.

                If you are running x valve you have lvl10. Just tune it.

                Nothing is going to be able to prevent all barrel breaks but I don't see a problem with any of the top end hoppers except maybe the pinokio

                  May take a look at the spire3 never had anything from virtue.
                  Where would be the cheapest place to get one from?
                  Thanks

                    Sven Doktor doesn't seem to have problems with the long nose loaders.

                      Virtue has a deal right now for a Spire III, pack, and pants for $250. Seems like a good deal.

                      Right now I use a Gi LVL. It’s $80, works decent enough and saved my bacon when I grenaded my Vlocity in 20* weather in NY...

                        Lol, you will find that RT'ing all the time gets old real quick when you run throw your pack of paint/game.

                        If you have a well setup L10 mag, regardless of mag type(though you won't take full advantage of the emag), you can put on any loader and not fear a chop. So you can put any loader on it.

                        Spires work, but can be outrun with mags(at the highest rof). Halos work, but are heavy. Empire loaders work but can be fragile/finicky. Rotors work, but are loud and can, at times not feed/jam/slice paint.

                        Anything newer? I can't give an opinion, as i have no experience with them.

                        So go with what you know, go with what you like. In most cases, you could get your money back on the secondary market on a new purchase loader, or go used & hooe to flip it with no loss.

                              Ha!

                              Cheap

                              Virtue

                              Good joke

                              Anywhere you can find it is going to be roughly the same. I do recommend a speed feed with it. Virtues is probably the best but again, also the most expensive.
