My primary comment is that you have 5 balls that all fall within the medium to medium-heavy oil range.  You need something for lighter oil and potentially something for a true heavy oil shot(assuming you ever see that condition).  I swear by my Hot Rod Pro Stock Pearl.  It is the best ball I've found for a medium-light oil shot.  It would be a great compliment to the Original X-Factor.  If you think you need something for more than your Atomic Charge or ACE you may want to look at a Vertigo.

Good Luck

Just like greenefam said, you will need something for heavy
oil and something for light oil. I don't know how's
your Original X-factor and Fired-Up is drilled. There can be some
overlappings between the Ace and Atomic Charge (both for medium-heavy),
Depth Charge and the X-factor (I can say both for medium oil). My own
arsenal setup will be like this :

Vertigo (heavy)
Ace (Medium heavy)
X Factor (medium)
Fired-UP (medium-light, if it is drilled weak, else will overlap
with the X-Factor)
Tropical Storm (light)

These are only my suggestions. Drilling each ball correctly is most
important to keep them from overlapping each other. Just my two cents.

p.s: Don't worry about my F.O.S signature, I still can't forget STORM!!!

Add another vote for a Hot Rod Pro Stock Pearl - I absolutely love that ball for lighter oil.  Haven't tried the Tropical, so I'm not knocking it, but just going with what I know works for me.  Definitely think you need something for the lighter side of things.  Depending on your style, you might be able to make that Ace work in heavy oil with the right surface prep, but you wouldn't have to worry with a Vertigo - that ball flat out hooks.

Peel off a couple bucks and go to buildanarsenal.com.
Pay a little up front instead of drilling stuff up and trading it off.
Jim King's thrown and looked at every darn ball out there for many moons,and putting that to work for you is just good sense.
