Hello ..

Usually use PMI Premium and Marbalizer, but i would like to try something other than that. (Possibly something other than RPS.. but i woudl like to try the JT)

I want a brittle paint (for a 180psi Bushmaster) cause i hate bounces!! I also would like the fill to be WHITE (it is rec ball .. white only ) and i woud like it moderatly thick, but it being white fill and brittle is a lot more important than the quality of the fill.

I saw some white fill Powerball for 46$ a case. Looks nice .. its white fill and aqua/white shell. PERFECT! But, is this quality paint? I have heard it bounces a lot and i have heard it breaks on opponents well. I would like to hear some more opinions on its brittleness and thickness of fill.

I also checked out some other paints w/ white fill.

Should I buy some cases of Powerball, or do you guys recommend another moderatly cheap (50$ or less) paint that is more brittle and has a better fill. Remember, needs to be WHITE fill.

Or should i stick to Premiums?

LMK .. Thanks for the input.

for rec ball, i prefer harder paint because if u live near the forest your brittle paint will break on every branch etc, its a pain in the butt.. harder paint wont break that easy....

i agree.... i prefer a thicker shell for rec ball. Powerball worked well for me, but it is a thicker shell i believe. PMI does make a ball with white fill if you want to try that. other than that, just try different stuff and see what you like.

for a white fill rec ball,with a decent fill,and minimal bounces
(in my experience) i like big ball, i know its rps,but its cheap shoots well in my defiant,it's 689 so it fits lapco bigshot,cp
and with the wgp version of the j&j 2 piece it shot darts

ALOT of fields around here are white only,or color limited,so i tried it out and liked it alot

also id say check out great american its not the best but its super cheap at pbgear,and its white


sorry i know those arnt brittle but i agree,any slightest twig
can destroy a brittle ball and can loose ya a good shot


cheers

Powerball has a thick shell. Great american is about average and can be found for as low as $35 a case. The purple has white fill but sometimes its a little inconsistant. JT and PMI is RPS paint. White fill isnt that common so its kind of hard to find with a brittle shell. Most of the brittle shelled paint has a bright color.

I know!! It sucks :(

Anyway, so do you think Great American has the most brittle shell out of all white fills?

JW thanks.

The new Nitro Duck Swirl is supposed to be brittle and one of the colors that will be available has a white fill. The new Swirl paint will be out in a couple of weeks.
