    How much do reballs weigh?

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

      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.

          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.
