 Has anyone have any experience with these "V-Balls"? They are supposed to be reuseable practice balls that last "hundereds of shots". If anyone has used them, do they shoot like real paintballs and how much are they?

I still want to know if they shoot like real Pb's. They would be a waste of money otherwise.

They are just for target practice and testing your gun. Not for shooting at people. They could possibly go through lenses.

Well, practice isn't about looking pretty and isn't jsut about moving around. You have to be able to hit your target. If you can't practice hitting someone, what is the point of buying these balls (be the way, they are fuzzy looking.

V-balls make a good tool for practice shooting, improving your snap shot, and just plain giving you something to do on a boring day where you can't be out at the field. V-balls, featured in the March 2004 recent issue of Action Pursuit Games, are 68 caliber velcro balls designed to work in your paintball marker.

You can also shoot your friends with these inside the house (while wearing masks of course) and not make a big mess.

We carry them. I've shot them and feel like they're pretty close to shooting the real thing. A handful of guys were in my warehouse after the big game shooting each other with some V-Balls.

At short distances they're just as accurate as regular paintballs. However, they do seem to be a little bit lighter so the further you try to shoot, the more likely they go off course a bit.
