Me and some friends are going to start playing at an outdoor field where you can bring your own paint. I just want to know what's the best paint to buy but staying at a reasonable price.

well.. it depends on your barrel's bore size, so that you can get a paint/barrel match. But if you are disregarding that, i would suggest RPS Bigball.

Yeah, thanks for pointing that out. This is regarding bore size. This is just for quality for reasonable price.

2 cases for 120 shipped online. (evil) thats pretty reasonable.

PBgear.net has a special - free ground shipping if u buy 100 bucks worth of stuff.

You can get 3 cases of Nelson Hot Spot, 3 cases of PBjunkies Joker, 2 cases and a lil something of PMI premiums....

I havent used the jokers or hot spots, but i've heard good things about value (cheap cheap cheap :) )

Diablo from Wal-Mart is alright in a pinch $25/1000. In fact, it actually looked better than a lot of paint I get at the fields. 2000 and not one oblong, dimpled, misaligned seam etc. I just got a wierd look when I asked the cashier to open them up and check for breaks:D

RPS super swirl from wall-mart is a good paint to buy only about 25-29 bucks for 1000 rounds.

I would either go with Diablo Blaze or PMI. I don't know what your paint prices run...but where I'm from I get Blaze for $44.00 a case. And I think thats amazing. But PMI isn't really around my area I have to go across state to get it but it is very nice. I like it and I think it shoots great.

Thanks guys I appreciate your posts but I have one more question. I just ordered a Minimag :D :D :D but I don't know what to oil it with. I have a little bottle of PMI oil and I think that might work but I wanna be sure.

VL???? I dunno...It doesn't seem to great to me. But hey that could be me. But yeah it is cheap. I guess I would give VL a shot to see how atleast your mini shoots to it.

And yeah that PMI should work fine.
