I think it would be pretty hard to reach 17 bps anyways, so which would be the best?

reloader would be better if you take that route.

How much you lookin to spend? If you want to buy new:
$50 Revvy
$75 Egg
The only other hopper you should buy is a Halo B ($110).

Get the Halo B. You'll probably use it when you upgrade guns.

You have no clue as to what the hell you're talking about. A) No such thing as "too fast" when it comes to feedrate. If your eyes **** the bed, it's nice to know that you'll have a loader that will feed faster than you'll be able to shoot, and B) The eggy can't feed a consistant 17bps, because it isn't force feed. It feeds an average of 15, with bursts in 17. Halo B's can feed a consistant 20-21.

Everyone knows that the reloader feeds much faster because it's a reloader:dodgy:

mooseknuc...knows what he is talking about...halos are awsome because they are fast....i like my empire becuase i can use dark paint but if u r on a budget get a halo....if that is still too much i would save up....it will help you in the long run....ive learned from experience...

Reloader cause it reloads for you so you don't have to.

If your gonna stay with the ion for a long time, just get a Reloader or a Revy. If not, Halo Or Reloader B

Get a halo B, I shoot dark paint through mine all the time and have had no trouble. But light colored shells and light fill is another story.

HaloB isnt a cheap loader though. If you looking for affordable Look at these.....

Ricochet 2K
Ricochet AK
Ricochet Apache
12v ViewLoader w/Xboard
Hell it wont give you the best but the Quantim
Tripod Viewloader
EvoII Viewloader w/ Z or Y boards
Extream Rage 9v Overdrive
12v Empire Reloader
12v Empire Reloader 2
Odyssey TSA Font and Back Man LED
Odyssey TSA Front and Back Man LCD

if you want more performance along the way thats when you can look into the Halos and stuff like that. If your willing to spend that kinda money then your pretty much looking at these....

HaloB BeltDriven w/ or w/o Ripdrive
HaloB Zcode w/ or w/o RipDrive
HaloB + buying a Victoryboard
Empire Reloader Halo B w/Rip Drive
Q Loader
Richochet 2KX
Warpfeed

Since you have an Ion though IMO get the EVO or One of the 12v loaders thats including the Tripod loader.

Just get a halo or reloader b. They are the end all of hoppers, you'll never need another hopper.

Not hard to get to 17 when it comes out of the box w/ a ramping board. lol.

And get a Halo B. My experience w/ Reloader B's is bad.

If budget is an isse, I'd go with the Reloader II

If you want the absolute fastest, Reloader B won't let you down.
