I was wondering what the best paintballs would be for the Model 98. I have heard that some paintballs are for medium-small and some large?? What size would best work with what "good" paintballs?

Paint match is not for what kind of gun you have, it is for the barrel.
So to know what paint is best for your gun, you have to match the bore with your barrel.

Use the Diablo Blaze. They are around 50 bucks and ive used 4 cases and havent had a ball break yet with my stock barrel.

Alright thanks guys!! I got the 98 from xpaintball.com with RPS Premiums. Do you know if the Model 98 Tippmann package comes standard with a standard elbow?? I know the package comes with A sqeegee cable and a hopper but It didn't say anything about a elbow. So I was just wondering do any of you know. Cause if I have to go get a M.O just for 1.99 ill be pissed
Thanks :)

The 98's come with a standard elbow that's part of the gun. You can get a power feed type from Lapco or Pro-Team. The stock one works well if you port it so that it vents any blowback.

Blowback?? I have heard of it but does that deal with the profeeds? hoppers? I want to have a flawless m-98 no problems like blowback or co2 leakage..what should I do?What upgrades?

All guns have some amount of blowback. It is part of the firing cycle. All a powerfeed does is use those gases to create a small vacume to suck the ball into the breech, by letting blowback gasses pass through a hole the feed tube. This makes the gun load a little bit faster helping to prevent ball breaks.
