uhhhhh.....maybe an all american, any barrel will shoot these well unless its the wrong size
Strengths:
Thick pink fill.
Hard, but not too hard
Look good to eat
Weaknesses:
Non edible
Review:
Basically, for you're money (which you'd be spending alot of) this are the best paintballs for darker woodsy areas. You can see the paint all the way to the target since it wont blend in with any surrounding colours. And you can shoot your friends twice if they make fun of the paint.
Conclusion:
Good paint, expensive, but good
It gets a 9 because its non edible...and because its made by zap
RPS Marbalizers - all round better, perhaps really the best paint on the planet
Zap Chronic 420 Gold - more accurate and little larger than standart Chronics
Draxxus Hellfire - more expensive, comparable in performance, but better look
Severe Cyclone - more expensive , comparable in performance, more atractive collor sheme
...the regular field paint (Zap Tork, Draxxus Blaze, PMI Premium) can you really not compare with this.
Good for all .689" comon onepiece aftermarket barrels - popular Smartparts Teardrop and J&J Ceramic for exception
Great for all .685" barrels - mainly stock brass barrels of old Sheridan markers, but likewise various barrel kits
Strengths:
Size, accuracy, price, availability
Weaknesses:
Accuracy should be even better
Diameter should be even little larger
Fill like glue
Review:
Zap Chronics are one of the few real accurate paintballs, good enought for long-range shooting. It is pretty cosistently round, with decent seam, firm and elastic shell. Haves good size for most aftermarket barrels and not just inadequate for most of stock barrels.
Chronics are great especially for woodsball players with low-end markers, because they do not breaks in marker or on foliage, but breaks good on hard and haves good accuracy up to 120 feet. Fill is heavy and thick, like glue. It is hard to wipe off even after games - what can be useful, but likewise is it little annoyingly - according to whether you are shooter or target.
On other side, there are some other, more accurate brands. Zap Chronics 420 Gold (earlier known as Ultimate Chronic) are more accurate and RPS Marbalizers are even more accurate (perhaps really the best paint on the planet as his manufacturer says).
There are likewise some paint brands what are fully comparable with standart Zap Chronics: Draxxus Hellfire and Severe Cyclone, for exception. But Chronics are comonly more available and little cheaper, at least in my country.
Conclusion:
All aroud good paint... but not the best. If you will accurate paint and you can not buy better, or if you do not have need of better paint, Chronics are good choice... if they are fresh and in good condition.

Tippman 98 C with star fire bolt 16 inch QB barrel true view red dot scope
Recommended Barrels:
medium to small bore
Strengths:
They have great color and no barrel breaks.
Weaknesses:
They stain everything and are hard to find.
Review:
These are great paintballs. They are cheap yet good quality. Resistant to humidity and sun. You do not have to worry about leaving them out. I left a box in my closet for six months and they still shot well. They also do not get dimples as bad. These paintball are great for pods and fast shooters.
Conclusion:
Overall great paintball. I would greatly recommend buying them.
Strength:
Fill is the best. Thick doesn't even describe it. People can tell it's chronic by the mark, after the game is long over. Wipes are not a problem with Chronic.
Weakness:
Is so thick that sometimes people get called out for hits done in earlier games.
Not many colors available.
Review:
It's a top performance paint with the best fill in the industry.
Well this paint is reallllly good. I haven't used it in a game yet but I tested about 50 shots and it shoots very nicely. It works like a charm inside of my Piranha EXT stock barrel, it is very accurate. I shot at a 4 inch tree from like 20-30 feet, popped a quick 3 round burst and ever shot hit.
Conclusion:
Well for $42 bucks its a steal, but I saw that Tork is about like the same size and it is a little cheaper so I might buy that, but this things fill is really thick, its like slightly wattered down elmers glue, its really bright too. You can shoot it from any gun and is still brittle. I'd give it a 10 but Tork is slightly cheaper and it is like the same size, so it gets a 9.
Mini e-orracle w/ups
-Full Kaner kit
-Ricochet Apache loader
-Crossfire 68/4500 N2 tank
Recommended Barrels:
Whatever matches the bore, most likely a stiffi switch kit or a kaner.
Strengths:
Consistent
Thick fill
Bright colors
Brittle shell
Weaknesses:
When this paint gets old you can tell
Some people may say its expensive
Review:
This is great paint. I have used it through a VSC mostly and I don't recall it chopping but like twice out of a whole case. This paint is very cosistently round, great fill (like elmers glue) and all aroud good paint. With this paint especially, it seems to me like when it gets old it is really terrible, but most paint is like that I suppose. Another strength is that it is the perfect size for most stock barrels. It's good paint, but I haven't tried it all yet so I can' say its the best.
Conclusion:
I am giving it a nine and a go-ahead-and-buy, you won't be dissappointed.
Smart Parts Ion
Reloader-B
14"Freak Barrel
Blackheart Board
Recommended Barrels:
I have a freak abd it didn't work out for me
Strengths:
Ok Price
Weaknesses:
Chops
Breaks alot
Overall pretty bad
(From my experience)
Review:
I picked a case up at my local paintball store and I thought these were gonna be pretty good. I don't really like this stuff. It wasn't the worst though. I think like wild streak and that stuff is a lot worse. Maybe I had a bad case or something. This stuff just didn't work out for me.
Conclusion:
You can get it if you want. I might give it one more chance
any(if you have a phantom like me then you will need a detent ring kit)
Strengths:
-Accurate
-No dimples
-Hard but bust on target
-No in gun busts
Weaknesses:
-None
Review:
A very good paintball.Zap has done very well this time.I ordered these of off a paintball site for only $13 for 500,when i got them in the mail and got to use them i was very happy no busts in the bag or dimples.I used them the nest day and i was very happy with the accuracy and the no bounces i had.And no ,even when i double pumped with the phantom,in gun busts.
Works sweet in any barel (get a freak tho cuz there sweet)
Strengths:
22 bps with no chopping
Bright
Straight
Weaknesses:
None that i noticed
Review:
These are absolutly the best paintballs i have ever used. I have the stock barrel on my gun and they fly srrraaaaight as an arrow. Ive never chopped one. Very visible when flyin and when they in the target. I dont know how much they cost cuz when i bought them they were at an arena but half price so i donno. They do not chop unless you shoot up to 22 bps and you likley wouldt break many even if you hit that speed. There not hard...there perfect density. They look very cool like that really matters.

Weaknesses:
Exspensive- $60

Review:
most accurate paintballs i have ever used.They fit perfectly in my snapshot .689 barrel and were also the most accurate shooting out of my old flatline barrel i sold.I have used EVILS, & MARBS and cronic shoots better than both.These paintballs are a must (if you like accuracy and not choping).Unfortunently there are not much stores that sell them. my store accually just stoped selling them which sucks,now i have to go to evils,and marbs
Conclusion:
More stores should put these on their shelves.Awesome paintballs
