Yah marbs are the best for flatline.

Also just to clear up some confusion choping is when the bolt breaks the paintball before its in the breach all the way, barrel breaks is when the paitnball breaks in the barrel.

I use pmi premoms and they work fine.

I have also herd that some ebay no names work good as well (they
may be cheaper).

Also go to PBreview.com look up the flatline berrel and they usaly
list good paints for that berrel.

good luck!!!!!!
now you see me

now I'm behind you

Don't use blue streak its retarted. It leaves blue streaks in your barrel. Maybe thats why they call it that WHO KNEW!

It may not have to do entirely with the paint, how fast are you shooting?, do you have a hopper that can keep up with it? Also, the bolt is metal, am i right? a new bolt would be part of the solution. also the velocity could be so high that it hits the ball too hard, i had a 98c and a flatline, blue streak worked A-oaky with it because i got a new bolt and electronic hopper.

in my experience buying paintballs by the bag is more expensive in the long run than just buying a box of 2000, for instance my local pro-shop sells paint for around 15 dollars, now a box of 2000 of the same paint usually runs 50 or around there, you do the math

and i can still shoot further than ur 1500$ guns

i don't really use a lot of paint. But I put 1000 rounds of TC Venom (not Dracula cause Dracula's suck) and not one ball broke in my A-5. It's pretty cheap too (except at my field) but it's good paint. They hurt a lot too.
