Any paintballs are basically the same except for size and shell. Just try to match your barrel with the right paint. I've heard the new PMI Premium Advantage is really good since it doesnt have the seam anymore.

Ive used steel and they are very nice. Very thins shelled so it breaks on target and they are very consistant. They are very nice.

I got to shoot some Steel this week and all I got to say is this stuff is unreal. The heavy orange is just like Hellfire but about $30 less per-case.

I shoot legends all the time now.I use the black ball green fill.Funny thing the field I play at sell BE sniper paint for field paint.Looks the same as that but theres no footballs in the bag.
I have shoot like 1000 and maybe blow a ball in the barrel once.

Point Blank is not that bad of paint. It's desighned as a field paint so it's not the best. The seams are not great but so are most other field paints. I've shot allot of cases in practice with zero breaks. Oh! And it's very smal bore(.685-.686) You'll find most stores sell it at around $40-$46 a case.

Legends I haven't got to use yet. From what I hear, it's a great improvement over Point Blank & it dosn't cost much more. I've seen most stores carry Legends at round $46-$49 a case. I do look forward to tring some.

Steel on the other hand KICKS A__! We used it in a tourney yesterday and teams kep asking what paint we were using because of the thick & nasty fill. We were using the heavy orange & emarald a most eveyone there thought the heavy orange was Hellfire. It's small bore also(.685-.686). I had a bad paint/barrel match & this stuff was still shooting like darts. Steel is harder to find but when you do it cost around $54-$60 a case.

Places I found that sell Point Blank are:
www.paintballgear.com
www.bbtpaintball.com

Paintballgear carries Legends & Point Blank & BBT carries just Point Blank. I found another site once that had Steel but it was $69 a case.

I'll have to check on that color. But when talked to Xenterprises, they told me that the only color available in Legends at the moment is yellow/blue-yellow fill.
They are also coming out with two more colors soon, but they are also two/tone shells. The color you're getting is probably a special field color.

Not sure about the field paint thing,All I know is where it be order out of. We ask for a black ball green yellow fill and thats what they sent us. I've shot 3 cases of it so far and Was impress by it.
My last case I have not bust but one ball which so far been the best for me as far as paint goes.
