vl200 hopper (the hopper that came with it broke)
20oz pure energy co2 tank
stock 8 inch barrel
Recommended Barrels:
these have worked fine for the 3 barrels i have tried them in
They were 12, and two 8 inch barrels
Strengths:
CHEAP!
dont break in barrel
great rec play (like it says on the box)
Weaknesses:
Dont break that easily
really oily
Review:
This was the first paint I have ever used, and it worked great.
The paintballs almost never broke in the barrel. I have shot 1000 of these paintballs, and only like 3 broke in the barrel. I did not have a broken paintball in any of the bags, and they were in good shape.
I got the paintballs for 50$ canadian, which is pretty average for cheap paint. The paint was kind of oily, I shot at my barn a month ago, and the blue has faded away, but there is still some oily clear paint on the barn.
When I used these, it was during the summer time, but they still did not break alot on people unless u hit a really hard spot like a elbow. It breaks great on almost anything else like buildings.

About a month ago i bought one of the newer boxes, and the paint breaks great on target, it does not chop, and it is only 40$ CND at wal-mart. Great paint, value of paint greater then deal.
Conclusion:
These are great affordable paintballs, and they are great for the rec player. The newer paint that I have used works really great. I definetly recommend it, do not waste your money on 50+ dollar paint for a case, get this.
For the price the, quality was outsanding.
