Cheap, Flies straight, brakes on target not in marker, Green shell hard to see.
Weaknesses:
some of the balls are egg shaped, does not seem to bother accuracy
Review:
Bought 6 cases from, Action village $33 per case. No breaks when it arrived. Nice green shell, No dimples, a couple of the balls had some bad seams. It was used in 2 Spyders with J&J Barrels, Tippman Stock barrel, Hammer pump stock barrel. Preformed excellent. Was very accurate, I was using the pump and got 5 goggle hits. The pink paint is bright and thick, You know when you hit some one.
The paint fit all the barrels excellent unlike diablo that is so small that it just rolls through the barrels, witch is a real issue when when your using a pump with out a ball detent.
The green shell is hard to see, so people don't duck or move. All you hear is smack on the goggles. It is fun to watch people stumble off the field because they can't see.
I chopped a couple in the pump, had been a while since I used it. Paint squeegeed good and balls still flew great after I squeegeed.
Not as accurate as diablo blaze or formula 13 in the semi auto's. But it was pretty close, for the price you can deal with it.
It was the most accurate paint I have ever used in my Hammer Pump. By the end of the day everyone on the field was afraid of me, Because when I pulled the trigger they best be ducking. People don't understand it's not how much paint you shoot, It is all about timing.
I have a small field at my house, Got 8 experienced people playing with it they love it. A good friend of mine running a spyder compact with J&J Ceramic loves it he has fired about a 1000 rounds with out a break. He also mention it was defiantly more accurate than blaze. He lit me up when I snook in the back of there base. He fired about 10 times 7of them hit and 6 out of the seven broke. He was about 35 to 40 yards away. The one that didn't break just nicked me. I personally have shot 500 rounds through my Hammer pump with a stock barrel. It is insanely accurate. I have been nicknamed sniper. I took two people at about 65 yards out through the woods in the mask. It took about 25 shoots to do it. It is just a great shooting paint.
It has improved my game a lot. I can go on the field and know where the paint is going to go when I pull the trigger. It is awesome. I had to stop using my pump last game because people where getting mad at me for being so accurate. They all think I know some deep dark secret that I am not sharing. I is so funny. I will be driving in my car and just start laughing when I think of some of the sick shots I have made.
I loved this paint. It was everything paintball review said it was.
Conclusion:
GO BUY SOME, for the price you can't beat it.
Great Paint,
Flies straight,
Nice thick fill,
Hard to see shell,
No breaks out of 2000 rounds,
Fit barrels great.

Thick paint Cheap price dark shells
Weaknesses:

Review:
I have only used these in one war so far but i was very pleased with the performance one of my friends tried to cheat and say they werent hit i believed him but when i saw him before the next round i noticed there were several faded but still clearly visible pink marks. I came to the conclusion that he had clearly tried to wipe off the paint. So these work well in my opinion. I have had no breaks wut so ever
Conclusion:
I reccomend these to anyone who doesnt want to spend a ton i got a case of 200 for 68.95 canadian at my local paintball supplier.

Recommended Barrels:
J&J ceramic seems fine
Strengths:
Fly straight, bright fills, hard to wipe
Weaknesses:
Not many colors, dark black shell boring but less chance of giving away you position
Review:
These a great paintballs. At my local store they are 40 dollers for 2000. Online i seen them for 33 dollers. So they are a great ball at a great price. They also never break in your gun but do on your target. Great ball for the price. They are very good for recreational use. I use them at my local field and they are perfect.
Conclusion:
For the price they are good, i recommend using them. Other than the little amount of paint and ball color choice(who cares) they are great.

This paint is great paint for the price i bough it for. This paint has a great pink fill that is really bright and it also has a waxy feel to it so nobody can cheat, and wipe the paint during play. I think this is great paint, especially for the price.

Review:
i got a case of these my expectations wherent too high when i bought them but they where cheap as hell like i said above 35 a case and they come in pink fill and its always funny to mark the hotshots with pink paints so i bought them. i threw them in my cocker and they where amazing first 300 rounds no breaks next 450 i think one break but it could have just been splatter in my barrel i was also surprised at the acuraccy of these thing they fly perfectly strait out of my cocker. well later my friend ran out of paint so i gave him a pod of my paint he has a viewloader triad 150 shots not one ball broken i was amazed. the only few things i wasnt impressed with was the ugly shell colors but it dosent matter all ur oponent will see is the pink fill on his mask but it was kinda weird i pop open one of my pods and i notice this rancid smell coming from them they smell terrible but whatever it might have just been the batch i got. but hey if there all that way its that much more fun to shoot ur oponent, enemy, or friend with
Conclusion:
if your looking for cheap, accurate, and something smelly to shoot at ur friends this is defenetly ur paint. i would defenetly consider using this paint in a tourny if i was short of money

20oz CO2
PMI Remote Line
Recommended Barrels:
J&J Ceramic
Should work with alot of other barrels too
Strengths:
Accurate
Round
Hard to wipe
Don't break
Weaknesses:
If they do break (yeah right), it makes your gun inaccurate/hard to clean
Review:
These paintballs are the best I've shot so far. Ive used WalMart paint and field stuff, but they dont compare to this. These fly straight and far, they come round, they never break in the barrel if you take care of it, and hard to wipe off. I shot half a case of this stuff and I didnt break a single one. Ok, I broke one because I tripped and got dirt packed into the barrel, I tried to see if I could get it out by shooting but it broke on the dirt packed in my barrel, so I had to turn it upside down and dry fire to get the dirt out, then it was pretty inaccurate because the paint has chunks in it, which makes it hard to wipe. And it was a pain to clean out the portings too. The fill spread isnt very good, but the fact that it doesnt come off makes up for that. As long as you take care of your barrel this stuff is perfect, perfect perfect. And theyre pretty cheap too. Best paintballs Ive ever shot
Bore: Medium
Fill spread: bad
Fill thickness: Excellent, makes up for the above
Accuracy: Good
Breakage: Excellent, never break
Conclusion:
Accurate, reliable, and hard to wipe. What more could you ask for? There not too expensive either, BUY THESE and see if they work for ya!

Jt 2-piece, i love this barrel i know a few people who have these and they love these things. This barrel is so accurate
Strengths:
Thick fill
Accurate Balls
Weaknesses:
Shells only come in ugly green color
Thick shells don't always break
Review:
I really love the fill in these balls and the accuracy of these balls. I just hate the colors of the shells and the thickness. The balls look extremely cheap due to that there are like 3 different color greens. The fill is really thick, it is relatively similar to chronic, in that it hardens as soon as it dries. There really isn't anythign special about this paint.
Conclusion:
It's alright paint i personally like primer better...they are both just as accurate. Just that i broke more of these in my gun, i didn't break a single ball out of a box of primer.
Some WallyMart junk sunfire or starfire or something like that (yuck) and some no named paint from Ebay (not bad whatever it was in those unmarked boxes) that I got for a steal.
Marker Setup:
A-5, flatline, thunderpig (16 inch), and stock barrels
Recommended Barrels:
They all worked really well. These balls are just on the small enough side that the flatline loves them.
Strengths:
Cheap, not one break in the gun or barrel (all 3) in 6000 shots.
Weaknesses:
They have very pronounced "seams" where they were put together.
Review:
You can find these really cheap on Ebay. They person I dealt with shipped them well and there wasn't a single broken ball. If your looking for perfection, these aren't it. Having said that, they fly mostly straight, break where they are supposed to, are hard to wipe off and have thick vibrantly colored paint. If your okay with a few curve balls every now and then, this is great stuff to play with.
Conclusion:
Its worth buying. Without a doubt. I'm not sure if I were in a competition this would be my first choice, but for just playing with the guys this stuff can't be beat.
THICK fill
Accurate
Cheapcheapcheap
Breaks on target
Weaknesses:
Soft shell
Cant pick color
Get some small ones every so often.
Review:
Zap Spank is THE best practice paint you can buy. It is cheap, fairly accurate, and breaks on target, not in the barrel. Have yet to break any, but my Spyder is LP. Thick chalky fill cant be wiped. I love it, and will definitely buy it again. My friend is using a TES, and these work great with it, too. Dark shell cant be seen in the air, but you cant see where you're shooting. Its a trade off, I think, in the shooters favor.
Conclusion:
You should get this paint for practice or for recball. Either way, if you get a fresh batch, you will be very satisfied.

Review:
The first time I even heard of these is when I was checking out ZAP paintballs here on paintball review. When I read about these I decided to purchase a box. The first thing I did was start shooting them when I got them. I was shooting fast and none broke. They were all hitting the same spot almost every single time. The next Saturday I went down to Splat Attack (good field) and put them to the real test. It was awesome. I hate it when people can see your paintballs coming at them and trace them to your spot. Not these. They had no clue who was shooting at them. Plus the pink fill was extremely visable. I had an awesome day and highly suggest these paintballs to anyone.
The great thing is you dont have to worry about wasting paint cause this stuff is so cheap.
Conclusion:
Recap:
CHEAP
Accurate
Semi Thick Fill
Bright Fill
Camo Shell
I highly suggest this paint. If your still unsure, just buy a box (its cheap) and test it out. You will not be disappointed!
