Hi and welcome to the site. A TM-7 is an excellent marker and should serve you well. Most of the guys around here use the RIP-Clip because it off sets the hopper to the side of the marker so you can utilize the picatiny rails to mount optics and lasers for a really great mil-sim look. Any force feed hopper can give you good performance though. I personally use an Empire Halo but there are a bunch of other nice hoppers out there like the Dye Rotor, your only limited by your budget.

Bang for the buck I would have to go with a prophecy.

I'd agree with SE on the Prophecy being the best value.  However, I love the Green Camo Rotor on my Woodland TM-7 ... not an exact match but close enough.  A lot of cheddar though.  If you're set on a RipClip sometime soon, just pickup a used Halo or Halo Too to keep you going for a while and it'll be a good backup for you afterwards too.

The rip clip is a low profile, offset feed system with a Halo B drive and allows use of any 'cyclone' hopper.  The TM Rip Clip also fits the BT-4 but you need the smaller bolts and DON'T use any adapter for the BT-4 and there you have it.

For more good is a Prophecy loader, I can't resist the low profile given by the rip clip + hopper tippman.

To use a conventional loader, wouldnt buy a milsim look marker but keep play wih my mini speed marker.
