    Loader Shopping Tips

    Hey Guys,

    I wanted some tips on loaders. I am planning on selling my Ricochet simply because its SO DAMN LOUD.

    At first this would seem like an exaggereation, but when youre crawling in the bushes, and the paint shifts and the loader goes off, and people are yelling "HE'S OVER THERE!" while spraying 200 rounds at you, then it kinda makes you want to get and shop for a more QUIETER loader system.

    The newer AK coming out was tested it it feeds 1 bps slower than the 2K.

    I was thinking about a 12V Revy (according to Warpig Ballistic loader testing, this feeds 1 bps fster than the Ricochets). But theres so much to choose from:

    18V Pre BE Revy
    12V Revy
    12V Revy w/ X-Board
    12V Revy w/ Turbo Board
    and dont forget the different paddles to choose from...

    Geez I need help. Give me your opinions Guys. Also what kinda Revys do the Pros use? Just plain old 12v Revys?

    Let me know.

    The first run of Ricochet loaders were very load. My first series was very loud indeed. It was also part of a bad batch that had a weekend feed neck which eventually cracked. When I sent it back it (6 months after I purchased it), they sent me a new loader. The new one is very quiet. I'm more than pleased with my ricochet and the service I've recieved.

            In the NPPL loader covers are never legal.

            I say go with the 12volt revy with xboard or a HALO

              im thinkin about gettin a turborev conversion for my 9 vlt, because shooting an rt with a 9 vlt isnt too fun(although i noticed it fed better than my friends 12 vlt, which was always skipping because of the delay......hmmmmmmmmm), i dont want to spend too much, and it supposedly feeds almost as fast as a halo. has anybody used this? is it any good?
              Mag RT with:
              12" j&j
              Drop forward
              Revvy

                  I was thinking guys,

                  It seems to be the delay in the Revolutions that slow the feeding. Would that make intellifeed the best solution?

                  I dont want people to just say "Oh yes of course, where have you been, thats what the intelliframe is for...". My Ricochet agitates on every ball fired, but still cant feed at a constant 13 bps. I have to turn it down to 10 bps on my Hyperframe tomake sure Im safe.

                  Also, why isnt intellifeeding a thing most professional Players do? Most of them seem to be just running a Revy all alone.

                  Let me know all.

                    Intellifeed RT

                    I shoot a RT w/ the intelliframe and the intellifeed on my 12V Revy. It shoots fine. I was going to get a Richochet but I figure why waste the money if my current setup is fine. Intellifeed was a great improvement. Only thing I do not like about the intellifeed is the wires hanging out and I lose the convenience of rinsing my RT down with water at times of cleaning.

                    It's all good though.
