So if you could help me out and suggest some paintballs that be great and if their is any paintballs from walmart that are matched for a .689 bored barrel because their isnt a paintball shop here and i can olny buy from walmart(i know they suck :tard: but the olny other option would be to ship balls here) thanks :clap:

.689 is probably the most common size. Most every manufactorer makes .689 paintballs. Diablo, RPS, PMI, etc. If walmart is the only place that sells paint... well lemme check their website and see what they carry. Err, not much. Looks like you get to pick from BE or Gameface. I haven't tried gameface paint but I know be is pretty bad. My advice would be to buy each brand at the local walmart in small quantities like 100rds. See which works best. Shouldn't cost more than $5 for each bag/tube.

We have some RPS here at our Walmart. I suggest those for the barrel. Plus they last a long time so you don't ahve to worry about ow long walmart has had them.

Well if walmart stocks rps then absolutely. Good brand. I usually have never seen any good brand paint at walmart though. Your evilmart is like a diamond in the rough if it stocks rps tho!

PMI/RPS Premium! I use them for my .689 CP barrel and theyre sooo accurate! (great match!)

Here in the Canadian Walmarts they carry a Zap torx paint by the pail it's not bad you get the odd non-round ball, the only bad thing it's stains.I like it though it's thick paint like evil.

really, no one can tell you what paint to shoot, because paint varies in size from batch to batch, hell even case to case, or bag to bag, and depending on weather conditions.

and if you can order the paint it would be better than walmart they dont rotate the stock so bye the time you see the paint its already dimpled and bad!!

any paint should work decent. .689 is the average size.
