    they aren't too bad, as long as you get some that hasn't been sitting too long on the shelf. If I have to get paint from wally world I like these and the super swirls

      In the past I have bought alot from there. The GREAT thing is that if they are dimpled badly or anything else you can take them back and trade them up till you get good ones!!! Try that at your nearest pro shop.

        I guess i am lucky. The guy who runs a local shop checks all the paint before he lets you leave the store. Thats what I call good customer service.

          yeah, that's more the exception than the rule. Kudos to the shop owner. I'd definitely shop there if it was near me

              I've used it before. It's not bad paint if I recall. It is a bit on the small side though. Of course, I was using a Blazer, and their barrels are a good .70.

                I'll have to check those out if they're cheap. I'm playing up in NH this Sunday and my RA and I will be stopping by a Walmart to pick up some cheap paint (it's BYOP day). How much for a case?

                    they cost 38.00 a case. sounds like they would match a proto barrel nicely.

                      I used ot buy super swirls but they stopped selling them at my walmart. Out of the 3 choices: big ball, impact and... that other cheap one (dont ever buy) Impact is the best one. I wish i could get those super swirls back though...

                        I know they're selling Nightmare at our local K-mart and "Franken-balls" I think thats what they're called, its by Brass Eagle. I think they also have Rampage but I can't recall.

                            Visible Impact = good for woodsball, but not tournaments

                            I'm assuming you're talking about Visible Impact.



                            Generally, these are great paintballs. They shoot pretty straight and rarely break in your marker.

                            Personally, though, I would not recommend them for tournament play. They're not brittle enough. Half the time they don't break when you hit someone. In fact, one time I was shot pretty close (about 50 feet) in the head, and the paintball didn't break.

                            Now, my friends and I usually play woodsball, and since we trust each other, we play that ANY hit counts (whether it breaks or not). So we use these paintballs all the time. However, when we play with people we don't know, we all use X-Balls because we need our hits to break. (X-Balls are the same price online, and if you buy $100 worth from some places like ActionVillage, you get free shipping.)

                            Hope this helps.
