Ebonite Ice should run you abnout $150.00 drilled in your local shop great length and controlled backend. Nice simple core and long proven coverstock. I also like power grooves and they are cheaper but this might be a little more predictable in the backend than the power groove. If you choose the power groove I would get the solid verion not the pearl.
Windoor suggestion was good also but I know you said you were buying from the local shop so they may not have that ball or they may not have it at that price, it is a very good ball.
There are quite a few options really do you have any particular balls you want to know about or any certain companys.
