| Review: |
I truly wouldn't reccomend this paint to anyone. It is terrible. My gun doesn't break that much paint at all...but this stuff...i break 1 out of 5 balls. I would much rather use brass eagle. I thought it would be descent because JT makes it...but i was very wrong... DONT BUY THIS PAINT!!! |
|
| Conclusion: |
horrible paint...gives JT a bad name. I bought 2 cases of these balls so now i am forced to sell them to my friends and tell them its good. :-( |

Almost every type of good paint, and most types of junk paint like this. |
|
| Marker Setup: |
Autococker, with the goodies. |
|
Recommended
Barrels: |
All American, but nothing can shoot this paint cause its too messed up. |
|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
Nothing really. Swirves a lot, but hey its something to shoot outta ur gun, better than shooting air. For the price, seconds beat this paint. Breaks every other shot, and its good for $40. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
BREAKS EVERY SHOT
Swirves
Thin filling
No color selection
Lots of dimples
|
|
| Conclusion: |
This paint is worse than B.E. paint, if thats possible. I bought it as practice paint, but my friendz seconds shot better outta his spyder than my elites shot outta my autococker w/all american. Go out and put $5 more into it and buy some RPS Big Ball paint. |

|
| Strengths: |
They work with a Flatline and mark well, and cheap |
|
| Weaknesses: |
A few really missized ones per bag |
|
| Review: |
If a ball breaks in your Flatline, it's better to put the paintballs in your hand and go smack people with them than to shoot your gun. This stuff didn't break or chop. My case was bright pink, which would explain the good marking. When I first saw that this was the new field paint, I thought "Jt........Brass Eagle ugggghhhhhhh" But it was pretty decent stuff. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Great if you don't have much money (I wish i could give it a 7.5, but it's just not "8" paint) |

Barrels: |

|
|
| Strengths: |
* don't break in my barrel
* cheap priced
* break easily for me
* accurate |
|
| Weaknesses: |
the only problem i had with these paintballs was that the second time i went to play paintball the week i bought em they started to stick together causing them to break when i pulled them apart and tried to keep fireing.other than that they were ok. i live in florida so it just might have been the humidity. |
|
| Conclusion: |
overall these were a good buy for me. cheap and accurate and first time i used i think i only broke one out of 1000. despite wut people say, i like these paintballs. i am not a very rich person, so i need to get good quality paintballs for cheap. in paintball a name means alot, despite the name of these paintballs i gave em a try and liked em. then again u have the very high quality paintballs.
i give these paintballs a rating of 9 because of wut happened the second time i used em and there are better paintbals out their |

Recommended
Barrels: |

|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
THE PRICE! ya i know marbs or maxims or whatever is good, but at 1/2 the cost for probably like %%80 as good, u cant beat it. i broke 2 out of a case, egg shaped? My hind quarter! |
|
| Weaknesses: |
I cant say the accuracy is bad, but its not good either but with 2x the shots for the same price i prefer these over most balls. |
|
| Conclusion: |
True the balls arent the best, but for the general american paintball public, this paint is worth more than what u pay 4 it. Sure if you are a little rich kid or someone who thinks money is not an object buy somethin better. But for the rest of us who just want to have some fun gopher it! |

A good one |
|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
The good thing is the price I biught 3 cases for like 96 bucks thats cheap. Plus it is good paint. It shoots straight and I haven’t broken a ball yet even on full auto. The color is a little dull but for the price it is still the best deal around. If you are like me and like to shoot and not have to worry about how much it is costing you get this stuff. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
Some look like eggs but in my boxes that was only like 3 or 4 in each bag of 500. Not bright enough |
|
| Conclusion: |
In my opinion they are a great deal I am going to buy some more. If you are super picky and don’t want any bad balls get some thing else (more for me and my friends) If you want to buy some I would recommend the pink because you can see them a little better. Plus when I shoot people I like to paint them up like a little girl. I give them a 10 because of the value and because they shoot pretty straight and dont break in my barrel. |

| Strengths: |

| Weaknesses: |
fill in the yellow ones is a little watery, only two colors- yellow and pink |
|
| Review: |
the pink ones are great. i've shot four cases of them and have only broken one. they are great paintballs for the price and are extremely accurate. sure marbilizers or superswirls are better, but who wants to pay $80 for paint. i know i dont. at $40 for 2000 paintballs, these are great, but a word of warning, DON'T BUY THE YELLOW ONES!!! they suck. they are about as good as brass eagle paint. i dont know why they are different from the pink ones but they are. the shell is soft and squishy and the fill is extremely watery. I bought a case of these one time and broke about 90% of them. This is no exaguration. DON'T BUY THE YELLOW ONES! But if you happen to come across some pink ones, stock up. you won't be dissapointed. |
|
| Conclusion: |
i reccomend these to anyone who plays, i know that i will use these for the rest of the time that i play paintball. they are great. |

These are just like Blaze Paintballs when they are round, but you have to make sure you dont press them too tightly into a pod or hopper. |
|
| Marker Setup: |
All i have is a basic Tippmann Model 98 Custom with a Stock Barrel |
|
Recommended
Barrels: |
Ive only tried with the stock barrel so im sure they work better in more accurate barrels |
|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
- Shoot Straight and pretty consistent
- Good Fill Color
- Strong Outer Case
- Thick Fill
- pretty cheap
- Medium bore balls
- I didnt have like any breaks due to shooting |
|
| Weaknesses: |
- Sometimes break in pods and hoppers
- Dimple and lose thier shape easily
- When they dimple or become egglike in shape, they curve like crazy and are worthless |
|
| Conclusion: |
I would definatley buy this paint again. Ive gone through two cases and only broken around five balls. They are real good balls when they are round, but when packed too tightly they tend to become eggish in shape and dimple easy. All in all i think they are a good buy. |

| Review: |
first of all i dont know what all of you people are talking about! These paintballs are great. I usually am not a fan of jt except for their gloves and tank covers. i used these at a practice one time and they were great. i could easily see that i hit somebody or got hit myself. they also didnt hurt at all and they broke easily on target. I didnt experience any curves at all. The only problem was that they are a little big so i could not use the stock barrel on my cocker.my fault for not having a barrel kit! |
|
| Conclusion: |
great paintballs, cheap, good fill, accurate..Buy them |

| Review: |
I've had different results with the two different colors, so I'll do a review for both.
Pink:
These are OK paintballs. There pretty cheap and they work well enough. They do break in the barrel occasionally but theyre easy to clean and I buy these from my local field. Average Paintballs that do what theyre supposed to.
Bore: Medium
Fill spread: medium-good
Fill thickness: medium
Accuracy: medium
Breakage: Medium
6 out of 10
Yellow:
I've never seen anyone have any luck with these. When I myself shot these, at least 90% of my balls broke. YES, I did say 90%. Im really not sure why theyre different from the pink ones, I heard it has something to do with the production of the yellow color or something. Anyways, Whenever I buy Elites from my field I ask for the pink ones, and if you get these, I reccomend you do too.
Bore: Medium
Fill spread: Medium-Good
Fill thickness: Medium
Accuracy: Can't say
Breakage: HORRIBLE, they always break in the barrel!
1 out of 10 |
|
| Conclusion: |
Pink: If you want some nice, cheap, rec/practice paint, get these.
Yellow: No matter what you do dont buy these!
I give the pink a 6, but listen, dont buy yellows! |
