these paintballs have the thickest shell and are very good in bad weather. i played in the rain and didn't have a single barrel burst. i was using my impusle with an all american barrel. i have had good luck with these paintballs the whole time i'v used them. these are the best paintballs for snow or rain.
Weaknesses:
these paintballs aren't the best in the humidity. for that get marbs or pmi premiums

I have use many others and these are my pick of the litter as of now
Strengths:
Very Little, umm always available at TriggerTyme (where I live columbia,sc)
ohh yea it didnt break in barrel
longer shelf life
Weaknesses:
Crap!
Expensive -Well where I live anyway
Not accurate at all!
Dont break on target half the time, target being people
Conclusion:
I dont use this paint unless they are sold out of everything else! I hate it! Might as well leave the marker and throw them at your target! You will get about the same result! Maybe i just had bad luck maybe not, You will see if you use it.
I've used Brass Eagle and Viewloader (they're both the same thing) paintballs. Compared to Proball, they have horrible accuracy. The Proball, with a stock Talon, with a grouping of a about 12 inches at 50 feet.
Marker Setup:
I use a stock Talon with a VL 200 with no sight.
Strengths:
I used the orange / green shell with white fill. The white shows up extremly well, and the fill, unlike Brass Eagle and Viewloader, is not watery but not too thick. As I said before they have a 12 inch grouping at 50 feet with a stock Talon. And for the most part, they go where you aim them with one exception (see the Bad).
Weaknesses:
One ball out of about 25 curved horribly off course, but that was when the 12-gram was almost empty. At first glance a few 'balls appeared to have a small lip where the shells meet.
Conclusion:
An overall good product, not extremely accurate, but good enough. And for 400 paintballs at $20 (at the Sports Athority), you can't really go wrong. I give them an 8 for above average quality.
I have used nelson challengers, proball platium, BE, RPS (never used marbs)
random others. I have had the best luck with not breaking in barrel with proballs, but since i have changed my barrle from 32 degrees carbon fiber to dye boomstick (not titunium) they seem to be inaccurate breaks and chops all the time. Great for use in cold weather with slow firing rec games. not tourny quilyty.
Marker Setup:
-I shoot a spyder se, w/dye boomstick and carbon fiber, up graded trigger boo yah lcd grip and low pressure added, and bob long cyclone.
-model 98 w/ j&j ceramic
-pro-lite w/ sniper barrle
Recommended Barrels:
carbon fiber, tippman sniper, or stock spyder (never dye boomstick)
Strengths:
The hard consistant shell breaks mainly on target not in gun with right barrle of course. great in cold weather little expansion of shell and bright fills and breaks good making it hard to wipe off of clothes.
Weaknesses:
To picky about barrle needed for great performance, not enough fill in shell,
noticable seel. That effects accuracy.
Conclusion:
Great for rec woods games, don't buy for serious practices or to get a good idea of what paint to shoot threw your gun just buy cause its cheap and effective for rec.
bought a case for $60 at a tournament. Many of them were dimpled. Way too many of them broke in the barrel for tournament paint.
Conclusion:
Most shot straight.
broke on target, but also broke in the barrel.
I would buy PMI premiums at a lesser price, but had to buy tournament paint at the tournament.
