Gotta love paintballs at 350 FPS

To be honest it doesn't look that bad. I get shell cuts all the time too

[Target Practice]

Note to self: Do not play with Big Chops. JK. I don't see what is so hard about it. Just chrono before you go out. You use a couple of shots, a not-enough-to-matter amount of air, and a couple of seconds. No Worries.

Oh well, c'est la vie.

i had a tippmann 98 that was shooting 375 fps.... it was indoor with the longest shot being 60 feet.... limit 265fps... I didnt get kicked out because i didnt realize i had my gun pointed down for so long.

your welt looks a little like the Dye symbol.

I bought a new raven mask to try out this weekend and I got one direct in the lower lip/center of the face guard. I don't know how it got though enough to split my lip, but it felt like I got punched a good one. Spitting out blood for a few. I bet that one was hot.

May not have been hot. That's happened to me too. Different paints have different shells and some can almost act like a plastic more than a gelatin. When it fragments on your grill some small bits can fly in and cut you, even at safe speeds.

it happens often when the ball hits your mouthpiece of your goggles and it shatters the paint and you end up with a bloody lip!

damn, u took it very easy on it. my friend got shot in the side of the head by a 350, made his ear ring like a mofo and luckly it didnt crack the mask. We were calling , check the speed of that, they chrono the kid and thats what came up.they chrono before every game so he turned his full blast. So the next game, all hell broke lose when 10:1 was capping him the next game! that was cool, never forget that one.the screaming and the ageny. early days of paintball in Hawaii

I'm sure everyone's been hit by the "newbie holding his bottomline spyder down" and popping you a shot. At this indoor, I was moving up the right, and my team told me the left side was clear... it wasn't. Some newb was waiting for me with his spyder pointed at the floor. All I remember was a WHAM WHAM WHAM and I was on the floor. He hit me in the side of the head at least 3 times and I think he hit me in the temple, which is not good with the soft ears on my Proflexes. I was dazed and confused for a good 30 minutes and had to call it a day after that.

[PissedGodzilla]

excuse me for probably making a stupid question, but what would pointing your marker down at the ground do about velocity?

is it a co2 thing?

[Loud Tim]

yes it is if u hold the gun so that the tank is pointing down the liquid co2 makes the gun spike.
