    Well, It depends on the type of ball you play, traditionally, you should not be able to outshoot a halo B, and if you can, you must have an rt mag, because you have MAJOR runaway. As for next upgrade for the classic: get a wingless rougerail, pricey but it should take some weiht off of it. or if not worried about weight, get an Iframe. I imagine you could sell the classic on ebay for around 300, and then just save another 150 and get yourself a nice RT mag with ULE and Xvalve. Classic mags are nice tho, even if they are ooooold. I would focus on getting some correct gear for now, nice mask, invest in a gearbag and nice squeegie, I have an angel LED with a tank and egg 2 w/Z and I dont have everything else, so I got ahead of myself.
    If I see one more "What happened to smart parts" thread, I will kill Adam Gardner. You have been warned.

      If your Halo has never failed you why would you want to change it? There is no real answer to your "best" hopper question. If you are asking which hopper is the fastest...you've already got it.

      Short answer = yes

      If you are unhappy with your classic you could get an X-valve and ULE body. These will make your Mag perform just like an RT-Pro.

      My recomendation would be to buy a used Retro valve with L10 in the classified forum and then get the ULE body.

      There is no reason to change your hopper if you've already got the fastest one out there.

          well the halo b with victory board is probly the best but i have heard about the v boards burning up, so id say stick with the classic halo b with rip drive, plus u have a 68 classic, you dont need the v board, hell you dont even need a halo but its always nice to have

            i use a halo for my angels.

            BUT nothing but a revy will be used with my mag.... rev is light , keeps up, and has the nicest profile.

              Keep the Halo B, you can do no better,

              As for upgrading the classic, just buy a used X valve, then get a ule body.

                Halo B is a great loader. I like it. Especially to feed my warp (see sig). However, I am a little curious how well the Q loader performs. They claim its faster... but really who cares. I'm more interested in how fast it is to reload the pods.
