would be the most suitable for a Rico drill? I'd like to use it on medium patterns. Right now, I've got a Triple Threat drilled Rico but would like to upgrade a little. Thanks!

Hmmm....Rico is smooth....my opinion...the Blast since its already a smooth ball. Why would you want to take a ball like the Equation which is skid flip and drill it with a smooth drill when there is already a ball int he line (BLAST) that is smooth on its own?
Just my thoughts...

I bought a used Slash off of ebay for 30 bucks I am going to try to RICO on. I also have a TKO that I have drilled up as RICO and it works great. Nice even roll through the entire shot.

How about the Inertia? That's what I was thinking about, but maybe I'm way off base. The Blast wouldn't be bed either I guess. Never seen it in action.

Hey Ernie,
With a RICO layout, it stabilizes reaction or evens it out. So why would you want to do that with a smooth reacting ball like the Heat Blast in the first place? With the Inertia, a ball that grabs quicker by design, it may not offer you the backend reaction that you are accustomed to. You may want to consider the Equation or Solution Power Plus EX for this type of layout. Hope this helps some buddy! Also, I've included a link below to my Heat Blast vid. I noticed where you said you never seen it in action.

Hey Big Ern,
I agree completely with Steve Austin on his choices. Especially if you want to upgrade from your Triple because that ball also had a fairly strong backend reaction. When I did my Angular this way, it helped control and push the ball down lane much easier even compared to just having a smooth ball like our Blast.

But if by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people -- their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties -- someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal."

Ernie,
If you go with the Inertia try to get a shorter pin....around 1-2 inches.
Personally for the Rico drill I think the Artillery would be best. It will roll and still have a bit of turn. The Blast isn't a bad choice either....but the Artillery offers more "bang" at the pocket.
