I know, ive seen the charts. PMIs are supposed to work, but I had a barrel break ratio of 1/100, which sucks. Mightave been the 45 degree weather, but others were not having as severe problems (for the most part). The PMIs SEEMED to fit, I did the blow test and many went through with a little blowing, although 2 out of 45 rolled through and 1 was too large. Big ball look a little smaller than PMIs (and cheaper:)), but are they similar quality? I might test a case of Big Balls, but maybe I should just try the PMIs again, because I only used them on one day, and when there weren't breaks, the barrel was shooting better than my stock. Anyone have any ideas?
(I know this isn't in the paint/barrel forums, but people hardly ever are in there to respond...)

i shoot the cheapest paint possible....32 degrees....proball...diablo midnights....my 32 Degree's Nyte Stikk doesn't break anything I have put through it. just use a paint till you find a good one....you'll be surprised which paints work with ur barrel

i shot a few pmi's (500) and they seemed to work well in my xcel but the best paint i have used so far is RPS gator blacks.
