I just bought a case of 32 degrees Team Colors winter fill, took some out of the bag (20 or so) check ALL of them and only 2 were perfectly round.. the rest were DENTED. Not just a little dent either, most had big flat spots, and some even had 2... thats the last time ill ever buy that pain, jebus~ ill stick to pmi/marbs

i dunno, but they were pretty bad... they didnt shoot too horrible but some had a little curve, I bought them from my local store on sale for 40$ so I guess i wont have to kill myself over it.. (i would if i had payed 70$ like for marbs)

Then don't flame team colors. You definately probably got a bad case like Trauma said. I havn't had any problems with them.

If your not going to shoot them for a few days then take them out of the box and spread the bags out somplace like the floor or a spare bed. Often the balls will round themselves back out if they have been dented due to storage conditions. I often shoot team colors and 32degree competition paint for rec ball and usually try to buy the paint a few days in advance for just this reason.

if u got some light dimpling on ur balls(so to speak) before u get into your car to go paintballing, puor like half of a bag into the box that it came in or another cardboard box and swish them around GENTLY!for about 20 seconds, and all the balls that were lightly dimpled should pop back to their round shape, might not be perfect but itll get close.

Heh, I have had really bad luck with team colors. The first batch I bought was suposedly right off the truck. I broke ball after ball... (The second time I played) I figured that maybe the field owner was just lying about the freshness, so i bought some more. I tried three different barrels during the day still broke paint.
