Review:
Usually I buy Arctic Infirno for the cold months, but all I could find was this so I tried it. Its I know winter paint is expensive, but this fell short on the cost/benifit scale. Not worth it in my opinion. I'd probably use it again if its all I could get, but next time I will try a bit harder to fint some Arctic.
Conclusion:
its ok, not great, but not terrable either. Kinda like buying a $60 case of mid grade paint.

Review:

Review:
Been using Frostbite since it has gotten cold, and have found it to be very accurate, and reliable in cold temps. It breaks well and leaves a nice bright Orange mark. The shell is durable when using both HPA and CO2, and unlike some other winter paintballs it actually works in the cold. Feeds nice and fast, 20 plus BPS easily without breaking in the marker
The only downside is the way the fill reacts to the cold, it get thicker in temps below -5 and is a little easier to wipe, not that we wipe. And the only color available is Orange. But thats the price you have to pay for good winter paint. And at 70 bucks Canadian a box the prices is good to
Conclusion:
If you play winter ball in cold temps this is the paint you need. I give it a 9 because of the lack of colors and it can be easy to wipe in really cold temps.

Review:
DO NOT USE THESE PAINTBALLS, unless you like throwing money away.
I used these as winter paint along with Origin. Origin performed much better than this paint and would recommend it as your winter paint
The paintballs were dimpled worse than any paint i have ever used. The paintballs were not round any the seams could be easily be seen. The fill was gel and half the time would not break. Diablo Nightmare or Heat paintballs are better. Switched to Draxxus Blaze to see how these work since the local paintball store do not carry teh Nightmaer or Heat in the winter
Conclusion:
DO NOT USE THESE PAINTBALLS, unless you like throwing money away.

Review:
This draxxus paint is very very good. It works well in cold weather. I was playing in my backyard with temperatures around 5 degrees Celsius, or 41 degrees Fahrenheit. It shoots straight for the price, and will not break like brittle paint in your barrel or on the bolt in cold weather. My MR2 shoots like a dream now, and i thought it was my gun that was chopping balls. But thankfully it was the paint that i used before. Out of 200 rounds that i shot zero broke in the barrel or on the bolt on contact. As far as accuracy goes out of 200 when shooting at a 3 foot by 2 foot board i hit it from 60 feet 190 out of 200 times. $65 Canadian.
Conclusion:
Buy these paintballs if you live in Canada like me or if your climate is northern. I'm giving it a 9 because Marbs are better, but do cost more...
