Re: Hopper size Poll

I normally use the 50 round tac cap, but also like the X7 hopper when I play "med". I have a 450 T4 and 10 pods for the times I break out the "Heavy"

Re: Hopper size Poll

for now, a standard A5 hopper..
once i put the money into it, i'll have a BULP, a sexier 200rd hooper (like the one on a rip-clip from BT), a tac-cap, and a 450rd beast. probably an X7 hopper too.
all depends on the situation...

Re: Hopper size Poll

KRA SHARPSHOOTER beat me to it. it's basically a tac-cap attached to a horizontal pod, that you just tilt forward and refill it. it holds about 150 rds.

Cool vids.

I have been thinking about making a 100 round hopper for a while...

Thanks for the fast answers guys!

Re: Hopper size Poll

just keep in mind with the B.U.L.P you only have 20 or 30 rounds, and you have to tip it forward to refill it. But with my implementation of it, it will be less necessary. (i'll be sacrificing super low profile for a slightly higher profile and a bit more capacity and easier to refill.)

Re: Hopper size Poll

standard x7 hopper with 200 rds. considered going to tac cap for a much lower profile and lower weight, but to me it would just seem harder to reload a tac cap. if you're using regular pods or dye locks with a 200 rd hopper you can just spill it all out into the hopper. but with the tac you would be careful not to top it off too much plus you would have some balls left over in your pod. i sprint a lot and do heavy running so balls can break in pod if not full as they move about a lot. i guess you could use 10 rd tubes? eh, i've never used tac caps before so i wouldnt know but it just seems convenient to use standard as its not THAT heavy
