So, what do u guys think the best paint money can buy is? right now I am using the RPS Slam (the ones with little words on the them) on my RT Pro and it chops about 1 ever 2-3 games. So, I used the new EVIL balls...BIG mistake... ever hopper I chopped 1-3 balls. Is there any better paint...So I NEED YOUR HELP.

What's your set up like, soccer?

Perhaps if you're chopping that badly, you could invest in the LX. It GREATLY reduces the amount of chops you'll have (to 0, if you have it set up correctly).

Also, were you experiencing chops in the breech, or broken paint down the barrel? It could be that the Evil you were using was too large for your barrel and they were breaking there. Just a couple of things to think about.

THANKS

My setup is;
- Automag RT Pro
- Smoke 12v Viewloader/ or other electronic hopper's
- drop foreward
- 68cu 4500psi Crossfire carbon fiber wrapped tank

Something to think about-

Chops will explode paint in the powerfeed. Barrel breaks are just that, usually you see the paint build up in the porting on the barrel.

Make sure your paint and barrel match size- Yes. Paint and barrels DO come in different sizes.

Also, the level 10 upgrade WILL reduce almost all occurance of choppage. Check it out.

--Edit--
Shoot EVIL! Works awesome.

Paint is WAY too inconsistent to have a "best" paint. I have had excellent cheap paint, and terrible expensive paint, and about every possible combination in between. A lot has to do with how the paint is shipped and stored by wholesalers and retailers. Variables galore.

I like cheap paint that is good, because I can afford to shoot a lot more of it :D I just bought some 32* playoff series (SAN Fran) good stuff for $39 a case!

I've had hellfire shoot worse (matched the bore size) than severe standard which I get for 30-40 a case

The best paint is the one that matches your barrel.

I have alwase shot RPS paint, Preminum gold,Marbs and now Slam, they are usaly very consistent and avrage priced in my area. If you are getting a lot of "chops" not barrel breaks then check you feed plug(do you have new or old style), check for a sharp burr in the feed neck or on your bolt, and check your bolt spring(if the spring is worn it can cause short stroking=chops) I would allso suggest a LX bolt kit, it wont stop ALL chops but when tuned proparly it shure makes it hard to chop:)

Marbalizers have always been the best for me. I shoot out of a Boomstick 99% of the time. It's reasonably priced (not that any paint is) too.
