I just got a flatline barrel for my 98 Custom and i was wondering what balls worked well for it? Also the barrels can move a little if its not tightened and i was wondering if it had to be perfectly aligned to work correctly? Thanx ------------- -Noesliy- --------------------------------- 98 Custom Flatline Barrel |

if you call tippmann they will say to use MARBALIZERS........just wondering but since tippmann makes "werks" paintballs shouldnt they be the best for the flatline? you would think they would make them specificaly for the flatline -------------

Marballizers do work good for the flatline. They may be a little more expensive though. For your flatline it would help the accuracy if every thing was aligned real good. ------------- It Not The Gun It That Thing Behind The Gun |

naw im just kidding. to tell you the truth, marbs, fule, and all the expensive stuff is the best but all paintballs will work. thats a big myth about the sport is that cheap paint breaks in barrels easyer. Posted By: 133t

Yes, small bore paintballs are the best for flatline. I find that draxxus
are very good with flatlines. -------------

I tried evil the other day and it worked great in my flatline. I usually use marbs but I think the evil worked better. I've also had good results with team colors, midnight, and blaze. Any of those should work well for you. PMI premium works pretty well too if it's easier for you to find that. ------------- oreomann33: Everybody invades Poland Rofl_Mao: And everyone eats turkey Me: But only if they're hungary Mack: Yeah but hungary people go russian through their food and end up with greece on everyth |

Ok, well, the best thing, is search for small bore sized paint You can find that out http://www.ottersccustoms.com/images/paintc-pdf.pdf - here And if the barrel is a little bit loose, use some teflon tape, and wrap it around the threads of your barrel...and that should do it. |
