ok dude slow down and type so that people can read what you are writing.

the halo b is a good hopper. the empire reloader b is better. the draxxus pulse isnt out yet but i think it will pretty much take over as the new best hopper out there.

the barrel you should get depends on how much money you are willing to spend.

tell us how much you are willing if you want a more specific answer.

if your going to be shooting fast halo/empire/pulse/vlocity.
If you can't shoot that fast a revy or empire 2 would do fine.

A good barrel is the Lucky un1tek or Custom Products 1 piece classic or 2 piece with a .693 bore in a 14 or 16 inch lenght.

And a good tank for would be a 68/4500,  crossfire is a very good brand.

Go with the Halo B. As for a barrel, I would reccomend a Custom Products 1 piece.

Get an aftermarket clamping feeding feedneck, shocktech perhaps, get a unimount asa with on/off and barrels, you'll get lots of choices, I tried a stiffi and it weighs nothing, shot great - try a few if you have the option and try to keep it under 14" - 10-12" will work fine.

If you want to save like 10 bucks more for a barrel, the J&J Edge is avalible for 80 on action village, but i dont know if they have the impulse threads.

Reclusivetorrid has a J&J Cramic on his Ion, and it does extremely well.

Great price, too!

I might get some static for this, but the stock barrel on the Ion is pretty good.  If you get a good paint to barrel match, you'll do just fine.  As an example, I got my hands on a 12" SP Progressive Barrel for cheap.  Using the paint I had on hand (fresh PMI Premiums) I noticed that the balls dropped significantly more with the Progressive barrel than the stock barrel.  Even the owner of the local and only shop in my 'burg said the stock barrel is pretty good and it really isn't necessary to get a new one.  Kind of odd advice for somebody that should want me to buy a barrel from him.

You can spend big money on a hopper but even an upped Ion doesn't need that much hopper.  You won't be able to outshoot an egg if it's working properly. promise

E2 + Z = E3

Conversely,

E3 - Z = E2

You do realize that all Halos are belt drive. Some of them just have the optional rip drive on them to load balls if you batteries fail or if you don't want to turn the hoppe ron.
