Recommended Barrels:
umm my cmi truflight worked the best but theese things are so random good luck finding a bore match
Strengths:
Cheap..............and i guess you can put stuff in the plastic thing they come in
Weaknesses:
Chop; fill way to thick; stink; very very very random bore
Review:
allright i have shot about 4000 rounds of this junk over the last few weekends, I bought this crap like everbody else because it was soo cheap. my thinking was they are paintballs and its less that 40 bucks for 2000 how bad could they be?? very bad. It seems like each ball is a completly different size some of the balls shoot well, some if them get stuck in your barrel and some of them roll right out of your barrel. Theese things stink! upon opening the diaper pail looking thing they come in you are greeted by the foulest oder in paintball! i noticed all four bags already had several broken balls and lots of loose oozing paint, the fill is so thick and so blue i shot my buddy in the head an his scalp was still blue a week and several shampooings later! do not shoot anything you dont want remaining blue. i have chopped so many of theese balls and had to clean my barrel so much that my fingers are blue. after theese ball explode in your gun have fun trying to clean all of it out so you can continue to play
Conclusion:
If you absolutley can not afford better paint (or figure out a way to make them) then i guess theese will work but keep several squeegees on hand
Dont break in barrel but they dont break on target sometimes
Weaknesses:
Smelly, smelly, smelly, smelly, smelly
Review:
Im on my way to orbital(best paintball field ever) when I got there i opened the balls up and i thought something died and was rotting in the bags of paint. They are the most smelly paintball ever. Good thing about them is if you hit someone you dont like thell smell like a moldy bathroom for a hour. They dont break in your barrel but sometimes they wont break on target
Conclusion:
I give them a 8 because of the smell and sometimes they dont break on target
Pmi Razzor because the price is great, barrel is pretty good,
Strengths:
Cheap, Cheap cheap,cheap,cheap
good for every day use
bright guey paint
Weaknesses:
thick paint,
some balls will shoot curved.
No colours besides Blue
Review:
I have to say everytime myself a few friends are out for a game, zaps are the way to go, cheap, cheap and cheap. Between like 10 of us we get like 3 box's (6000), never had any broken balls in the bags... only broke a maybe 6 balls after shooting 6000 of them in different marker set ups.
I have used several different colors of these balls.
The Pink/Yellow Shell with Pink fill is the best. It breaks easily on contact. My CO was longballing and hit a fellow player in the groin area twice with both breaking. It shoots through breaks easily (J&J Ceramic) quickly.
The Blue/Green Shell with Blue fill is decent. It breaks on contact most of the time. I was shooting at players less than 25 yards away and 2 of 3 just bounced.
Conclusion:
At Academy 2,000 balls only cost $30. This is the best ball for those people who cannot afford shooting higher priced balls all the time. The Pink/Yellow shell is the best to buy.
Vl Heavy metal: not near as good
Be afterburner: not as good
Marker Setup:
VL Orion
11 inch barrel that comes with it(hoping to but a 20inch progressive)
VL200 hopper
20oz tank
Strengths:
Fly strait
Thick fill
Good for snipers
Gives good welts
cheap
Weaknesses:
Smell really bad (but that doesnt really count)
Review:
I've only used a couple kinds of paint and these have been the best so far. They fly strait, Ive never chopped one, they are good for shooting throught trees and bushes, they have good shells, and only a few have dimples or an egg shape. Really cheap at $59 Canadian for 2000 paintballs.
Conclusion:
Good paint. Great for sniping and woodsball. I'd recommend it because its cheap to buy a whole bunch(2000 for $59 Canadian)
Tippmann 98 custom with Blackpoint Engineering rifle butt, high tension spring kit, 18" smartparts progressive barrel, Winson 4X15 scope, 16oz tank with smartparts valve.
Strengths:
cheap, Thick-skinned. durable, etc.
Weaknesses:
OFten blow up in the hopper
Review:
These balls are okay, but nothing spectacular. They work quite well, but for some unknown reason they seem to like exploding inside the hopper, even without an agitator. But when they do hit, they hit hard, which is fun, 'cause you get to see the other guy hop around like a jackrabbit on steroids. Hurts like hell to be shot with one, though.
Conclusion:
These balls are good, but try the extreme sports series for the extra ten bucks and give yourself a real treat.
-In quantity SMELLS.....am I right?
-Long Barrels
-Thick Paint
Review:
-Pros Cheap, you can buy alot of these I bought my 2000 at this one place for X amount and it came to $0.0174 per ball. Pretty accurate, wind is always a problem, Shell is thick, brother-in-law shot me in my right shoulder and I watched the ball hit and fall to the ground without breaking I laughed at him.
-Cons If you buy like 1000 or more of these grab a nose plug. They stink! I noticed in my 32 Degrees Nyte Stick they get stuck in the long 16" barrel. When a ball does bust, be ready to strip your gun, barrel and cocking bolt. The paint seems to me is to thick and jams everything up.
Conclusion:
For the cheap price go for it, long barrel competitors stay away.
Wild Streak (CRAP NEVER BUY THEM)
Diablo Dusk (Pretty Good)
Big Ball (The best)
Marker Setup:
98 custom
Recommended Barrels:
any
Strengths:
C H E A P!!!
dont curve a lot
dont bust in barrel
Weaknesses:
They have one colored shells if there has to be a weakness
but none really.
Review:
I saw these at acadamy for $30 for 2000 so i had to pick them up. When i got home i still had some wild streak paintballs left so i put a few of those in the hopper and a some of the ZAP. The difference was tremendous!!! The wild streak curved and had a slimey, dark fill. When the ZAP came out they flew straight and had a thick, bright fill.
Conclusion:
If you dont mind using seconds and you need cheap balls BUY THESE!!!
Good Shell
Flys straught
Thick fill
Cheap
Comes with bucket
Weaknesses:
Smells like Sh*t
Some balls are not circle
Review:
These are good balls for practicing or playing it the woods. They have a thick fill so there hard to wipe. Me and my friend fired 500 of them and none of them broke in the barrel. They are a great price too. Where I go they are $29.99 for a bucket of 1500 paintballs. The only bad things are they smell like sh*t and somethimes the balls are not circles. They got dents in them. These are great paintballs and they are a great price.

Review:
I went to wal mart casue my friend said he bought 2000 there for 35$ so i decided to head on down to walmart and check it out. I bought it and took it home. I opened up the box and all of the bags looked like somebody had taken a freaking hammer to it. I went back to walmart a few days later and they had to go through 12 bags just to find good quality bags. And man was i pissed.
Lesson learned here guys never buy this paint or any paint expecially at walmart
Conclusion:
Never buy this
