At least for a good price too... I want the most acurate ones and easiest to break... Which brands do you guys use for this?

I bought a jar of lol Kmart kind... They sucked... for figure for $5 for 200CT.

Xball.  Very nice.  Bronze,  Silver,  Gold,   all good.  I prefer bronze in my tippmann though.  They just work great.

I figure it was a NEW user forum... So that is why I asked... I did use search... Trust me... I am not the one that you gotta be telling to use search... You know how many different opinions and different things come up when you search a generic term like that?

The paint type really depends on the size of your barrel. FInd a decent
paint that consistently matches the bore size of your barrel, then use
that.

The Black Box paintballs from actionvillage.com are decent. I swear by the DBX Practice paint I get from D.ick's.

Nope.  There are several sizes of .68 caliber paint.  The sizes can range from .687 to .693.  Here is a size chart you can reference:  http://www.ottersccustoms.com/paintc.html

Not a big marbs fan.   too pricey and the shell is too thick for my liking. Plus they dont make ones that break pink and its so much fun to cover peoples camies up in pink paint

yea a darker color is harder to find because people want others to see who they hit very clearly.  altho clear fill is pretty cool if you just want to test fire your gun w/o rents freaking out or the wife (whatever your individual case may be depending on age variables)
