I used to shoot proball back in the day until the team colors series came out that was almost half the price per case.

walmart
usually the ones that come in the box but not the cheapest ones...they bust in the gun too easily

never did brass eagle, they sucked even tho they were cheap

always used Big Balls most of the time

got them from specialty stores.

ZAP worked well too

Anybody used Visible Impacts? Walmart has a case of 2000 for $38, and I've heard good things about them. The main thing I'm concerned about at walmart is that they may sit for a long time. I went ahead and marked all of the remaining cases of Visible Impact with today's date (on the UPC), so in the future I can get an idea of how long they've been sitting there.

I know that won't tell me how long they sat in the warehouse... but at least it's something.

We used to shoot ZAP a while back. They were good balls.

I just bought a box of WalMart paint about 2 months ago.

I shot about 500 balls and everything seems to have worked great.

@ actionvillage . free shipping for all order over $99 . Diablo Formula 13, Zap is good too.

those great american's worked ok from actionvillage if you're looking on the cheap. looks like a case of proball or zap is about the same though.

are you buying just to shoot around on your own? all the courses we play up here (PA and NY) make you buy their paint. is it like that in most places?

Also ordered them from there back when I played.

always used to shoot hellfire, but we got it at cost. otherwise it gets pretty expensive, especially since I played back and could go through a case a game in 10man

I play a lot of woodsball, as well as some outlawball (though i do always use my little radar chron, no desire to be overshot with a hot gun)

I tend to buy whatever is cheap at walmart that day, as my a5 eats through paint. When you play back or heavy in a woodsball game paint and air are never in abundant supply.

We have access to 10 acres of land that we'll be playing on this weekend. Most of the places here require field paint, but there is at least one that does not.

We played with the Visible Impact balls that we purchased at walmart for $40. They're pretty good balls! They're accurate. I didn't break a single one (of course, my gun has never chopped a ball). I'll keep buying 'em.
