You match the paint to the barrel, not to the marker.

Search the forums for a paintball bore size chart and match it up.

PMI Bigball is 40 bucks for a case of 2000 and its really good paint.  no barrel breaks, no seams, no deformities, and they always break on target.

The big balls I got were really really dimpled. You can't say paint doesnt have deformities, all paint has deformities. Difference being most manufacturors take them and sell as seconds. It also depends on how long its been sitting on the shelf.

Draxxus Blaze are around $40 I believe. PMI Premiums are a few bucks more and have good quality.

Draxxus Dusk is what I use everytime. It's great paint never had a problem with it and it's cheap (about 30 bucks for 1,000 count.)
