2005 Vision Impulse, new style (03 shocker) vertical max flow, Eclipse Blade trigger
Recommended Barrels:
.689-.691
Strengths:
Brittle Shell, but not to brittle, SUPER THICK fill, BRIGHT easy to see fill
Weaknesses:
None really
Review:
I've shot Proball Platinum for some time now, and have never had any real problems. Be sure to get a good paint/bore match, and it will shoot darts all day. The best tournament/premium paint for the price, and colder weather. I tend to be partial to the green and yellow fills, seem to mark a little better, but the orange is awesome as well.
Everything, Not one is dented, perfectly round, no raised seam
Weaknesses:
A FEW do not break on target, other than that none.
Review:
These things are great. They fly straight as an arrow, no curves. Never break in your gun, great for long distance shots. This paint has a very hard shell and in cool or cold weather some will bounce of your targets so i suggest keeping this paint warm. You can rub this paint between your fingers and not feel a single defect I cant tell you how flawless this paint is.

The good about these balls is that the wont break as much as other balls going threw small brush. They are pretty straight and only curved a little with my gun (but i could use a better barrell).
Weaknesses:
They didn't break every time on a person. I shot my frind from 25 yards away and hit him 3 times and they didnt break. Later i shot him from 10 yards 1 time and they didnt break.
Conclusion:
I like this ball if i was shooting with lots of busses around you. I prefer a ball they is a little more fragile. It is a pretty good ball all around though i would use them again if i was short on cash. These are good balls for there price but I am going to stick with Marbs. My rating was a little generous because of the good price of these balls.
WGP Dark Raider, stock barrel that was upgraded half way through my bag to a CP one piece
Recommended Barrels:
what ever fits the paint
Strengths:
These balls fly fairly straight. Usually won't break in the gun, or on a person, or a bunker, or anyting else for that matter. Look cool flying through the air.
Weaknesses:
Very inconsistant. I only used a 500 round bag, but one shot you could point it straight down at a road and it owuld bounce, but then I dropped one and it broke. Two extremes. Two broke in my gun, but only one out of the whole bag on a player, most of my victims called them selves out after several hits with these. The seam is very notacible but dioesn't seem to affect its accuracy. The majority of these balls might as well be solid rubber, they bounce off everything.
Conclusion:
They fly straight, and they hurt enough to make your oponant call himself or herself out. I'll stick to my marbs and all stars.
marbalizer(old shell), Anarchy, Power Ball, few others.
Marker Setup:
I am using a 2000 edition worr games Autococker(RF) It has a palmer 3-way, freak barrel, an eclipse swing trigger, and a crossfire 68/3000 nitro tank.
Recommended Barrels:
I use a freak it's the only barrel you'll ever need.
Strengths:
They shoot well, fly straight, and seem to work well with my A/C.
Weaknesses:
That's funny I've never seen a ball bounce off a bunker before?! In other words they NEVER break! I had a guy dead to rights and I shot him 10-15 times(I thought iI was missing he told me this afterwards) and not a one of them broke. They bounced all off his knee pads, shoes, legs and yes even off the side of the bunker right next to him!
Conclusion:
It does fly straight and shoot nice but it never breaks! So buy a paint that breaks not this CRAP!!!
every type of RPS, ashamed to say brass eagle:), regular proball, sheridan, ZAP, all types of 32 degrees, and several others. The only paint that matches up to platinum is some of the 32 degrees paint (team colors), and PMI and RPS paint, thats about it though, the rest is pretty much crap, Diablo isnt bad either:)
Marker Setup:
2k cocker, rock reg, STO ram, Bomb 3 way, superfly bolt, 14" DYE boomstick, KAPP ball detent, 32 degrees hammer kit, nelson springs, Tornado Valve, KAPP drop zone2, DYE trigger frame, DYE stickies, KAPP trigger springs, Gladiator reg, and powered by a MAC DEV Conquest:):):):)
Recommended Barrels:
Boomstick works great, Big daddy, teardrop, freak, Bigshot, DYE Aluminum and stainless, all american, and several others....
Strengths:
Whats good? Pretty much everything, considering they have a very flat projection out of most barrels, they never break in your gun unless u dont take care of it, and usually always break on target. They look tight:)
Weaknesses:
The only thing i can think of is that OCCASIONALLY they dont break on ur target and just bounce, but not very often. And they can tend to run a little high in price:( they are a small bore, but work well in most barrels (specially the above) unless u have an enourmous bore:)
Conclusion:
Great paint, its all i really use considering thast what my field uses, and i love thick shelled paint, go buy ur self a bag of 200 or so and just try them out for ur self, u will be surprised:)
