Any of those guns are fast, but not necessarily more accurate. In order to maintain accuracy, you must have a good paint / barrel match. Better consistancy doesn't hurt either.

no marker is more accurate than any other marker
trixes will only outrun a halo if you can outrun a halo, keep that in mind (well, without ramping, ect, but thats just no fun) for cost-performance ratio, a DM5 is not worth more than double the price of an upped DM3.
markers i would concider-

DM3- the one i had was awesome, great marker, i wasnt fond of the overall feel, but, if you liek the feel, i would recommend one
freestyle- im currently looking into picking one up
viking- just solid, fast, great markers
timmys-not bad, but, like the trix, not my style
Proto perhaps- just picked one up, not here yet, but, shipping soon, looks like a nice DM4/5 alternative, but, smaller and lighter than either. I will have more about it when mine arrives.

if you do decide on a DM5, it will not be any faster, or more accurate than a DM3, or any other high end electro, actually, if you want to get tachnical about theoretical speed, DM5's have been tested wiht full auto and a Q loader and only been found to fire ~22bps max due to the spool valve operation (like a 22bs cap will slow anyone down )

You could always look into a Devilmag.

i could look in to a devil mag but im keepin that mech for thosedays every gun people i nos gun goes under and the thank me and i let them borrow it but its mainly for my dad who doesnt play much but well he gets the job done with my angel 2 but im limiting his paint next time p.s. it dosent dounce yet i do think i will go with the dm3 over the dm5 becuz of more options triggers feednecks back plates breeches breechrods lprs and such anything else would be appreciated

i have a dm3 and a dm5 and the dm5 is 200% better. it comes with a clamping feedneck, a bearing trigger, it's lighter, smaller, better on air (mine is), smoother, less kick... just all around an awesome marker. best one i've owned yet...especially when you put a tadao musashi chip in it. you're looking at the difference between $1280 and $600-ish. the dm5 is worth every cent though.

but that's just my opinion.

i do no what paint to barrel match is just so yall no and i do no many other things for accuracy as far as i no som eguns are better as far as stock barrels and shooting good with trash barrels not saying that ii will have one on it but im just saying that some do have some what more consistancy in shot patern than others

[SAW]

What?

[68magOwner]

What?

yeah, not great wording, but, ill answer what i could understand
paint to barrel match involves having a barrel kit and matching teh size of your paint to the bore of your barrel, one of the biggest factors of accuract in paintball.

[captian pinky]

sorry guys i understand paint to barrel match but comparing 2 diferent guns with the sam barrel and paint will have differerent reactions on accuracy and i no that u need to have good paint to barrel match got that part but back to the topic i dont need help with accuracy i asked about a dm3 compared to a dm5 and both being used sorry for prior confuccions oo and i cant spell

[RRfireblade]

Get a DM3....PM me.

[RRfireblade]

Oh yeah...I have a DM5 too so....whatcha want to know?

[SAW]

What do you think of the shooting profile compared to the mags?

[GT]

I would love to answer your post but this is AO, not pbn. For God's sake please fix your first post so it resembles some form of English. I am the worst speller here, however that garbage is unreadable.

Asking me?

Which one compared to a Mag?

Both Trixes are taller no question. The 5 is a bunch thinner than the 3 but still thicker than my Xmag by a tiny bit. The Xmag is shorter overall by like 1/2 -3/4 inch if you line up the bottom of the grip frames. It's a little less than a full barrel thickness.
