    In response to the person who wanted to know what we brand/type of paint usually used. I tend to use DXS paint, X-ball bronze, blaze, X-ball silver, X-ball gold (if I'm feeling..."spendy"), rec sport...I like DXS never had a bad day with the stuff. That and the field I tend to play at (Fox in Millington IL) has DXS as field paint (but they are BYOP, every day).

      Two years ago .689-.695. Now .684-.687. Does that tell you something?

          NICE!


          I use the .689.
          80% of the time it works every time.

            Yeah, whats up with all this small paint? I recently bought some paint at Wal Mart for a woods game and it was sooooo small it rolled out of a 679 insert!

                  Just remember

                  barrel A .689 does NOT = barrel B .689

                  that being said I usually use .687

                      I never use anything below a 691. I do not want to risk barrel breaks, and I care not for the small amount of difference in accuracy/efficiency.

                        I have to match to the paint, as I use a closed bolt marker (excal). So it varies from day to day.

                              I match paint, so .682-.687 most of the time, and occasionally .689. Never larger.

                                I have never even seen an insert smaller than 689! Been playing since the woodland days aswell! A 682?? Crikey!
