BT4 Rip Clip or Cyclone Feed (opinions plz, which better for scope space?)
Some kind of Scope Rail (weaver?)
Decent Sniper Scope (around 10")
E-grip

All advice greatly appreciated gentlemen :)

I would go with a Rip Clip for the Magna... When you "upgrade" or just want to sell the gun and get a different one you won't have to buy a new hopper for. Ether way is good but I would stick with the e-hopper.

I beleive the Cyclone and Rip Clip are pretty comparable for line of sight. I have used the Cyclone several times and know with an X7 hopper that it is completely out of the way. However, if you already have an electronic hopper, I personally might not make the switch. You may be better off looking through the Marker Gallery, finding one that you like and PMing the member to see what their set up is. Sniper scopes are a bit pointless on paintball markers as a general rule though as they do not have pinpoint accuracy at longer ranges. Useful for maybe scoping out your opponents in the bush, but not much else.

I brought my Magna to go with my LE Camo PMR.....
But I have decided now I want to go back to my 98C and spend some money on her.
 
I want a really milsim looking beast hence the scope, but I obviously need to offset my hopper.
So the choice is buy a Rip Clip or buy a Cyclone Feed kit to go on my 98 and leave my Magna for my PMR.
 
I have spent most of today looking through the gallery and there a quite a few I like. But I want a bit from each and then add my own touch for the finale, plus a nice paintjob.
