Oddly enough, I can't seem to find the answer.

I think the idea is they match paintballs... ~5grams dunno. used to have some. cant find any now otherwise I would throw one on the scale :(

Paintballs can't weigh more than 3.5 grams for safety reasons (and few weigh more than 3.2g). I'd imagine Reballs are similar being that they're supposed to imitate paintballs.

2.6g according to my scale.

They are substantially lighter and smaller, like under 0.67". They will shoot almost 10% fps faster than a paintball. So 300fps on a marker shooting paint would be 330fps with reballs. Most paintballs weigh from 3.0 to 3.2g.

Thanks, I kind of suspected they'd be lighter than normal paintballs. I guess using them for certain types of marker testing isn't appropriate.

They're fine for basic function testing, but not particularly good for air efficiency or barrel tests. Warp feeds don't like them, and Level 10's will probably be somewhat picky with them.
