-Breaks easy
-Often comes broke in bag.(Store Fault)
Review:
When I first started paintballing I would buy these all the time just because they were cheap and they worked good enough for what we did. I started with a VL Orion so your going to break a few balls no matter what paintballs you use with that gun. If you dont want to spend $60-$100 a box for paint then get these.
Conclusion:
If you just play with friends and arent a serious paintballer then get these.
They best compare to 32* team Colors neither is very goof

Recommended Barrels:
Well, I used a .689 Lapco Bigshot with them and that worked great, don't go smaller than .688 or barrel breaks are more likely
Strengths:
The price, Wal-mart avaliability (see review), Nice fill
Weaknesses:
Inconsistant performance, Random barrel breaks in any barrel (even .691)
Review:
I suppose I should say first why I purchased them in the first place, it was 10am on Sunday and we had an unofficial field set up in the woods, We Had air, Chrono, etc but, we needed paint and Super-walmart is open 24/7 and at the time none of the paintball stores were open on sunday, and these had JUST been stocked on the shelves before purchaseing them.....
This paint doesn't really like to break, not the toughest shell I have seen but, close. Definitly a larger size paint that wouldn't roll out of any barrel that I own. Not something that is very accurate or consistant due to seam variations. The price is right so I didn't expect perfection anyway. Strangely the balls would randomly break in the barrel when used with any size, even the Stock Tippmann 98 barrel which is fairly large bore.
The only Guns that seemed to shoot this paint without randomly breaking it was a Tippmann .68 Special (stock barrel) and a Shocker 4x4 (16" AA); even my Brass Eagle tigershark would randomly explode paint with this stuff, it was about 70-80 degrees when used.
Conclusion:
Don't use this product unless you have no other choice, I would still reccomend over 32* team colors though.
nothing compares with this. i've used visiual impact, stingers, and pmi premiums, but this paint is the worst by far!!!!!!!!!
Marker Setup:
Spyder Imagine w/ Bandit Bolt-Shocktech Springs & Low Pressure Cell-12'' Smart Parts Teardrop-New Designz HP Valve, 48/30 HPA, Revvy 12v
Recommended Barrels:
none, i wouldn't want to have to clean it.
Strengths:
Price?
Weaknesses:
Everything but price.
Review:
Well pretty much this was the first paint i used in my paintball career and i'm glad the person i was playing didn't have these, because i wouldn't be playing paintball if i thought all paintballs were this terrible. It breaks when you don't want it too and it could be the worst accurate paint i've used, but i hear wild streak is worse...........
Ive seen people use many brands of BE paint, all without much success.
Marker Setup:
98 custom with RT trigger and 14inch j and j
Recommended Barrels:
Dont even bother with this paint
Strengths:
Price, still doesnt make up for quality
Weaknesses:
Accuracy, range and barrel breaks/chops.
Review:
To sum up BE brand paintballs, in this case Blue Streak, they flat out suck. Many balls are out of shape to begin with when shipped well, and Walmart carries them, so their only going to get worse from there with bad treatment. Dont be surprised if half of your box is smashed in. The balls themselves are Misshaped, oiley, dimply and anything in between. They break in your barrel or chop VERY often, and they occasionally jam up your hopper if your using a Grav feed. PMI Premiums might be a bit more expensive, but your at least gonna be happy with your days play.
Conclusion:
I can go to the bathroom, scoop some into my hopper and use it more successfully as a paintball than this crap. Stay away unless its your last resort.

Had this with a spyder compact deluxe edition /w Taso winforce
Recommended Barrels:
Taso
Strengths:
Shoot fairly straight, solid color ball, and they're hard shell.
Weaknesses:
THE FILL on this paint is a dull blue, and its not very thick.
Review:
I bought (2) 500 count boxes of blue streak paint. I ended up leaving them sitting on the computer desk for bout 2 months until I finally went paint balling. The shell on these balls is really hard, hurts to get shot by these, but instead of marking your opponent, the paint seems to get absorbed by clothing, AND it's a thin, soft blue fill, not very easy to see especially if you're far from your enemy. I was only using a Spyder compact Deluxe with this paint, with a 16" Taso Winforce barrel, and the paint shot very true. The spread was maybe about a foot in diameter. I used these in a night game in the hills behind my friends house, so with the lighting I couldn't tell if he was marked, only if you have honest player... then this paint is good.
Conclusion:
I think this paint worked out great, but it does has its flaws. but if the paint was thicker, and more like a bight yellow, pink or green, then it would be good paint. This paint would be ideal for practice with your friends because how it marks, and at PB parks people try to wipe, and this paint can easily be wiped.
Tippmann 98 custom
Dead on pro seal power tube/front bolt
expansion chamber
armson stealth barrel
Strengths:
Cheapest paintballs you can find at walmart
Weaknesses:
Thick shell
Bad paint inside(very light in color)
Review:
I only use these paintballs for practice games/shooting. If you play a game with them you wouldn't know if you hit the other players, paint inside is like water mix with a hint a blue, bad visibility.And the thick shells will just bounce off of people anyways. For practice shooting(at trees,walls) thats fine but playing on a field is a big no with these paints. Using a tippmann 98 custom i only break about 1-2 blues out of 500(using practice paintballs at my field i didn't chop yet) If you don't mind chopping and only need the paint for PRACTICE shooting. Blue streak is for that.
Conclusion:
Bad paint for playing field(bad visibility)(thick shells are hard to break)
JUST Good for practice shooting but it chops a few
Rating:
5 out of 10

Review:
When i first started paintball these were the first paintballs i used. At first i thought that's how paint is suppose to be un till i tried other brands. They were horrible. Every time i shot some the paint was so thin is could be wiped off. 1/3 of the paintballs in the 1000 count box broke in my barrel.
Conclusion:
Not recommended.....Recommended paint is PMI Premium
All i know is that i was ballin at a friends house and another kid had them and they were all stuck together so i took them out and smashed them against a old rusted trailer and they broke but were still stuck and some still didnt break so yea idk what was wrong with them but id like to know what happened to them
