Gravity feed hoppers with a stirring paddle, don't feed all that fast. And yes your Pro-E will outshoot it.

I have my E-bolt set at 10 Bps to keep from chopping. I would love to up to a reloader B.

Just turn the rate of fire down on your marker.

Yeah, definitely a hopper problem. The custom pro E is capped at around 15 and, from what I hear, it hits that with ease. Your hopper is probably only rated for about 13 bps. It may keep up sometimes but not consistently. Either get a new hopper or just don't shoot so fast and you'll be fine.
