stop buying paint that is either braking in your barel or curving all over the place. Get your barel out and make the thread side face you. Then take a paintball and put it in the barrel. If the ball goes into the barel aroung 2 inches then check if it can come out if you blow into the barrel, the paint is just right. If it just falls right through, the ball is to small. If the ball doesn't move it's to big.
:crazy: :blah: :pissed: :eek:
That method has been used by people for years. It's actually a pretty accurate method.
And if I remember, I think I actually saw a paintball sizing chart. You know, like one you use to find the size of your finger to get a ring? But for paintballs! I saw it, never bought it and regretted it. I forgot who made it, too. I think either WGP or WDP, or maybe AGD.

Yep WDP does, and I think smart parts has something along those lines now too. The blowing method, that really has been around forever. Orrrrrrrrrr you could just "borrow" (IE freeload) a little bit of everything off of everyone you know....heck then you wouldn't even have to buy paint?!
Theres a chart in the barrels forum
