G6R, Ego 11, Ego 10, Axe, Victory, maybe a luxe 1.0 if you're lucky, dm12, etc. Do your research, see what you like though.

You best bet is to go to the field and ask people if you can shoot theirs. Try some of the older model guns too, like 09 egos and geo+s will leave you some spare cash for loaders or tanks.

You assumed an ego11 is 1000. You can find a used one for 600-700 thus his comment |

The OP is looking for high end used guns around $600. Not eteks. Ego 11s go for $600-$700. Thus, in his price range.  |

I was talking brand new sorry
So then to the op
Because they prefer new rather than used. Like I chose axe instead of a high end used for my first speedball gun |

Didnt like my quest, thought my dm6 was smoother and much quieter. Protege/vice still the best value in the used market. Havent owned a g6r/ego11 yet so cant comment on those.
Course ive only owned a couple dozen or so diff types of markers since 97. I would follow the above advise and try shooting some of these. Might be surprised how little difference there is anymore.
