RPS Advantage shell shot ok in my bush, it just seemed like they didnt' feed fast enough. I chopped 6-8 in a hopper and 2 pods.
They were kinda old tho..i think they had been sitting around for 3-4 weeks =\

yeah, my bushy seems to chew those balls up like butter. I say, every 4 out of 10 shots would break in the gun (beep-beep-beep-beep **CHOP**CHOP**CHOP-beep-beep-beep).
DO you guys think that the balls are too brittle, or do you think it's the stock ball detent?
thanks!

actually, the balls aren't chopping, but they're breaking near the breech of the gun. i don't see any pieces of shell or paint in the hopper afterwards.

hmmm thats weird, i had absolutely no problem running them through my bushy with big shot, shot great for me. i like them, they shot better than blaze usually does for me . . . i like the shell it wasnt too brittle but it broke when it hit something.

i've been using bigball and it's been flawless.
now I get great american for cheap from my sponsor so I use that now, it actually shoots great also.
i think my gun shoots everything well. even the crappy free tourney paint goes through smooth

I usually shoot diablo, but have put a few cases of advantage through my bushy.
Both brands shot great.

i had bad experences with advantage shells, I had no idea how hard it could be (took two people pushing on it) to get out a stuck bolt with that stuff, I don't plan on using it ever again, Diablo will get my bussiness.

yeah, it took lots of elbow grease to release the stuck bolt with that RP shell and juice stuck in there. So diablos are better?

i like them, and seem to get better results, but still there are much worse balls out there then the Advantage (ever here of 32 degrees compition, the balls were shaped like pebbles!!!!)
