It all depends on the bore size of the balls, and the size of the barrels.

It's probably a mix of both. That's not a great gun, and the stock
barrel on it probably sucks a fat one, so combined with cheap paint,
you'll get a mess.

It is not as much as the gun as it is the barrel. Some barrels have favorit paint, or favorit paintball size rather. An example would be the flatline likes small paint so Draxxus and Diablo work very well with it. ------------- http://img204.imageshack.us/my.php?image=260991706090alb8rs.jpg">

Find out the bore size of your barrel, and find nice paint that will match its size. ------------- http://www.sloganizer.net/en/">

I use Draxx in everything it seems ok to me. fool around with different paint to see what your barrel favors ------------- 
There can only be one.
