X-Ball Bronze is more of a Rec Grade, Gold is their tournament Grade. I'm not sure what your Wal-mart has though.

Wal-mart is getting more paintball stuff. They have Ions, Wraths, Halo B's, all the good stuff. At my Wal-mart they have inflatable bunkers.

Some actual stores have them, and the Wal-mart website have them for sure.

Any XBalls are fantastic.
I used bronze a few months ago, fantastic stuff. Read the reviews.

yeah, Xball is some really good paint. Bronze is their lowest grade, and even that is very good. It's competitively priced, but I dont think I would lump it in with the rest of the rec paint because it definately performs above that level IMO. silver and gold are excellent.

Bronze isn't bad either. Definitly one of the best paints out there today.

Xball paint is amazing. It is the only kind of paint I use. You can't go wrong with it.

Before you buy it, ask how long they've had that shipment in.

Even the best of paint turns to crap after a month.

Thats just Chronic, he was talking about good paint in general. Chronic may not turn to crap after a month, but other good paint might.

I've still got about 400 rounds of draxxus dusk from about a year ago, and it's not dimpled ot soft or anything... as long as it get's moved around/turned regularly it should be fine (obviously this doesn't happen when it is at walmart on the shelf)

Anybody have any luck or tried the Brass Eagle Monster balls at wally world? I got a couple 2000 round boxes of them, they seem to shoot pretty good but quite a few of them have the dents in them, and these are new shipment paint at wally.
The ones that are dented of course shoot like *$#@%, curve all over the place, at 29.96 a box of 2000 not bad BUT if 1/3rd of them shoot like garbage then it's no deal, I'm tired of having to pay 50.00 for a box of 2000 decent paintballs, anybody had any luck with any other cheaper brands.

Too bad this forum don't have a sticky thread that we all post to and tell of the cheaper brands of paint that we have used and had bad luck or good luck with.

The Wild Streak brand from wally world is pretty good at 19.96 for a box of 1000, shoots straight and no dents:) And it's not greasy like the monster bads are.

We play woodsball and we all use Tippmann 98 customs, some use an A5, Brass Eagle, and a few no-namer brands, and we all shoot cheap paint, cause were cheap:):)

So who on here has tips on cheap paint to use that they have had luck with, it seems to be getting harder to find good cheap paint.
