I got a chance to handle and try some Diablo HellFire with my friend's Matrix. I want to use some with my Diablo Terminator T3. I have it double regulated.
Here's the question: What are these 'brittle shelled' paintballs supposed to run at? I have my gun set at 300 psi, is that too much? Wha do you guys recommend? Also, can a motorized hoppers be used, or will they break paint?
I know, lots of questions, but I figured you all would be best to ask them. Thanks in advance. :)

Motorized hoppers should be used, 300psi is fine, and make sure your barrel match is not too tight or you're gonna have a hell of a time

I use almost exclusively Diablo paints and they work in pretty much anything. I haven't had a chance to use hellfire much, but I know 300 is plenty low. A revvy or any other loader won't have a problem feeding it. I use inferno a majority of the time and it is pretty brittle. It has run in anything from tippies to angels with no problems what so ever at our club field. The normal field paint is blaze, but we order some inferno in with our pallets too and I have used that since I first tried it. Hellfire is some nice stuff, but inferno shoots just as well and is a bit cheaper.

Alright, thanks guys.
One more question: my friend owns a Rebel bottomline and just put a regulator on it. He wants to knbow what those paint balls can be run at, right now he has it at 500, too much?

As far as I know they can run in almost any pressure. I know they like to be below 500-600 to work best though. At high pressure, aka standard pressure, they tend to break a bit more but are still usable.
