i went here for the big charity event, batle in the red zone. it was a very good, not excellent, scenario game. i went for my b-day.
Pros: the owner is awesome. my gun sometimes double fed so i cound't use it, of course it was a new gun that i had tested only once. i couldn't use it and i thought that i would have to pay for a new one. i just went into the pretty well kept pro shop and got a new rental for free. the new rentals were shooting hot on compressed. they just cut the spring without a problem. the rentals are well kept i survided 4 hours wiht it and no promblems cept for the fps. the player there ranged from my age, 13, to 50, it was rlly varied. player never looked at you and said o no we got the kid, they said ok your small go in there, and quick there he is get im. always helpful on hints. since it was my third time paintballing i thought it would be just a normal game. this had medics, engineers, officers, and generals. the regs didnt give the saftey rules and were rlly stict with a "no tolerance policy" you cant get away with anything. you have to get chronoed after every time you die, by the owner. the owner gave the rules. the refs range form, as i could tell by the masks, 18-40, only small amount of "paintball punks". always helpful
Cons: Price is the only one and it is kinda in a remote location. but thats not a con rlly cuz how do ya get a good woodsball with the city right next to you. price is steep, cant rlly see the need for 80.00 dolla for feld only paint.
conclusion
with a good field like this everybody should come.
AAAAAAAAAAPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

pros: awesome fields, great staff, owners extremely nice and knowledgeable makes for a great playing atmosphere. Refs were fair and available for paint checks. Prices were reasonable (paint a little expensive) $10 all day air. have early bird specials on sunday they waive the admission and rental fee if you're there before 10 a.m. i'm considering buying a membership (shaves off a few bucks from paint).
Cons: low fields velocity (250 fps) difficult for range and accuracy on their bigger fields (one is 200 yards accross). Prices of paint are a little steep $80 a case.
Overall my experience was outstanding at this field, I'll definitely be coming back. |

this field has an overall great atmosphere. the staging area is great, the proshop is great. I was having problems with my gun shooting too hot so i took it to the proshop and one of the owners helped me out and fixed the problem. the staff was great and they knew what they were doing. the paintball fields were set up very well and i enjoyed them very much. the only problems i have with the field is the paint price, $80 for a case and the speed you have to chrono your gun at which is 250 fps. 250 fps is way too low for an out door field like action packed paintball. it really should be 280 fps. although the paint they sold seemed to be pretty quality paint (i didn't break once the whole day i was there but it could also because of the low fps) 80 dollars a case is way too steep. 60 dollars seems more reasonable.
in conclusion, overall this place is a great field and i had a great time there and would love to give it a 10/10 but the high cost of paint and low speed you have to chrono your gun at brings the rating down to 8/10 |

First off this is the best field ive ever played on. I only go there 2 times a year for their annual big game events because i live 90 mins away from the field. This is best field ive ever played on.
Pros-
-The $10 Admission fee from every player on the big game events goes to local food pantries to help feed the hungry
-Theres a ton of parking
-Alot of tables for all the players
-Incredibly friendly staff
-The owner has played paintball for a very long time so he respects the game and players
-Pretty good paint prices for a field $80 for 2000
-Alot of players at big game events
-Good food
-Very clean fields and staging area
-Excellent fields
-Awesome 2 story wooden castle forts
-A TON of refs, there was never a time i didnt have a ref around to get a paint check.
-Much more
Cons-
-Semi-small sign May be a little hard to see if youve never been there. But they have ballons on it :]

Field speed - This is my only complaint.
I came for the Walk-on Novice and Advance Game on Sunday. On there web site it says that field speed is 270fps. This is a little low, but attainable with my markers. But what I found out is I had to chrono @ 250fps and to get that slow I had to pull out my backup gun. If there is any walk-ons that are considered novices then everybody has to chrono @ 250fps. There was more than one of us scrambling to reduce our equipment to a speed that slow (mods, changing springs or cutting them).
Every thing else was great, the people, facilities, fields, employees and owners. The prices were reasonable. They treated you like gold.
But in a world were field speeds are around 280fps, I won’t be returning for any more Walk-on Novice and Advance Games @ APP.

I decided to go on a whim one day and I toke my brother with me for his first time. We played many like seven games in 5 hours or so. The refs did a good job of keeping the games moving. There was one bad apple that I saw whipping paint off. I wish they had a couple more refs and split up the 25 on 25 into two games. I like playing airball and they really have nothing other than woods and 2 speedballs that they tryed playing both at once. I like fast paced games and the big groups made for fun but kinda slowed the day down. Most people say the paint is high priced at $80 a case but it is cheap considering that the rental is free for anyone that wants to take advantage of it. |

This is an excellent place to play. They have great fields and a great staff that will help you with anything you need. They also have free admission days at least once a month so you can play there a lot without spending a lot of money. The pro shop is small and the paint is $80 a case but the refs keep the games moving and keep the teams fair. They got me hooked on paintball and it's a blast. You won't regret playing here. |

This weekend was the first time I have played at ACTION PACKED. The owners are outstanding. This is a the best field I have been too to take kids and just have a great time without worring about a new player or child having a bad experience. First my son and I had a problem getting our markers to come down to 250 BPS. The owners gave us springs to use and were more helpfull than any other field I have ever played on. During orientation they took the time to show my sons friend how to use the rental marker and answered any qustions we had. This is the best field I have ever been to for taking your kids and for customer service. The refs are great and alwys willing to help. They do a great job on paint checks and getting people organized and back on the fiels for as manay games as they can get in in one day. I will defintly be back there in 2007. Everyone was friendly, including the other players that showed up for walk on play. This place was more about saftey and having fun playing this sport than most fields in the area. If you are looking for a fun day with great people. please visit ACTION PACKED PAINTBALL IN WATERLOO, WISCONSIN. Bring the kids with you and they too will have an awsome time. The only thing I would change is switching sides after each game on a field so you get two games each time you head back out. Again, if you have not played here and are looking for great service with a great paintball attitude for adults and kids, this is the place to go. |

When we first arrived there we went to the house where we had to pay and It was very clean and organized. The staff was really friendly and the prices where very good. After we payed we got the safety overview and it was well done. After that we got organzied with the other walk ons and began to play it was alot of fun there was about 20 people we played with the refs where very good with getting the games going and monitoring them one guy was taking the paint off of him and I told the ref and he went and told the manager and he came out and told anyone that if they do it again they are out I thouht that was awesome. The fields where very cool and very big.
Pro:
Friendly Staff
Great fields
good people to play with
Prices
Cons:
They kinda need a bigger sign to let you know where it is
there is really no food there so bring your own lunch
