 I concur. I bought 2 GXG's and their lids got blown off the first day.  However, I've been running with the same app 50 rounder for months.

Plus GXG's don't even feed. I still have nightmares about the one game I played with one.

I tend to use an APP for speedball or 100 rd Sportshot for rec/woodsball.

I just got my Winchester and used it for the first time last night. With the dye lock lid mod it holds 68, and I shook it once all night, and that was @ the chrono. I really like it. Now to get it I had to buy a pair of hoppers and it cost $25, but knowing your hopper is going to feed is nice.
An aside: I was playing indoor speedball, with some walk on rental people, they seemed nice. The young kids suggested I needed to replace my Phantom with a NT10 or Ego, but thought the lock lid was cool.

There is definitely a point to agitating/force feed for pump but most such hoppers are unnecessarily large. I have a custom 100 rd agitating loader, that's the best of both worlds.
But I use my nonagitating 50 rounders more often.

I've never had a gravity hopper not feed while I'm autotriggering (I really hope that's a word). The Revvy was too awkward and heavy and not any more reliable than my APP on my pump.

I'm a fan of the sport shot. It's small 100rnd so you can find 100rnd pods that work for it and most common speed feeds also fit it. I use a sniper w/o auto trigger and have never had an issue with it feeding consistently.

45* stickfeed
Never jams. Never missfeeds. Lighter and smaller than anything and cheap to make!

i never had a problem with my GXG??? what are these weaknesses you speak of lol?
if you plan on playing up front, i like to use a 50 rd hopper, APP, GXG etc to cut down on weight and size, for playing in the back i like to roll with a proto primo to lay down paint

If your using proper technique the hopper profile really shouldn't matter that much unless your in the snake or near/past the 50. Which honestly is not the best tactic unless you snap shoot at the highest level. Find a hopper you feel comfortable with and you have the ability to reload quickly. I shoot most people while they are fumbling to reload or doing something other than putting balls down range at me.
