Pin above the bridge drilled Original Inferno. However, the Intense Inferno go ling and comes back. I'm not a fan of it though. That or if you looking for an Activator cover, try a Classic Zone.

Absolute Inferno, or Intense Inferno. I have roughly the same style as you, and I have an Absolute, drilled label leverage. It goes long enough, and it can handle medium heavy oil well. The II, is longer, with a more pronounced arc on the backend. Either ball is great, but I have heard that the II is a bit condition specific.(might be why some people are not fans of it.) The AI is better for use on a broader range of conditions. I would go with the AI.
Hope this helps!

If you have a competent driller, who knows your style and what you want the ball to do, you WILL find that the AI, will match up well for you.

I can't speak for anyone, but myself: everyone I've seen roll it or those I've talked who have thrown it aren't amused. It has seemed to tank. I'm sure some others here love it, but I know none in my area including pro shop personnel that like it. Every other Inferno has been really good except the Blazing came and went. I've seen more positive reviews for it though. I haven't hear denough about the Raging Inferno to comment.

The Intense is generally better for the dryer side of medium. It can handle medium, but med heavy is where it gets kind of jumpy.
Also, due to it's strong coverstock (Activator+) It is a bit too much for dry conditions. Medium-dry in general.

This reply is what I hear most often about this ball. It is a bit condition specific, but it totally OWNS on the right condition.

I'd say it moves well. I'll let Lefty there answer the cover question.
