Pros: Super thick bright fill
Cons: none
This is hands down my favorite paintball I've used in 21 years of playing. Super duper thick fill that is no-wipe. Colors are super bright. Balls are always round with no dimples.

Anarchy always shoots great, never breaks in my barrels, breech or hopper but always breaks on other players.

For the past 3 years every case I've used (easily 50-100 cases) has been 0.684 bore for me and it's always refreshing to know it will be consistent ~ I can't say that about RPS paints like Premium or Marbs.

Pros: THICK fill, nice shell, cheap price
Cons: Shell varies between cases.
One of my local shops sells Nelson paint, and my local Dick's Sporting Goods sells it as well, so it is not hard to come by around here.

I performed a drop test just like I do with every other paint I buy. Yet again 10 paintballs varying distances.

5 balls, shoulder height (5')
1- Broke
2- Bounced twice then broke
3- Broke
4- Bounced twice then broke
5- Broke

3 balls, 3'
1- Bounced
2- Bounded
3- Bounced

2 balls, 2'
1- Broke
2- Bounced

These paintballs tend to break on their seamsand not shatter like some other paints.

I have used more cases of this paint than probably any others out there for many reasons.

Shell- The shell is thin, but not so thin that you have to worry about chopping of breaking paint.
Fill- Wow, is all that can be said about the fill, it is as thick as mayonnaises, and if I'm lyin' I'm dyin'.
Seam- They do have somewhat of a seam, but it does not hinder the flight of the ball, they are very accurate when matched perfectly.
Consistent Ball Bore- They have always been around .688 for me, some cases would vary but only by around .001 or so, nothing major.

Now the some what bad.

Shell- The shell tends to vary sometimes during different seasons, sometimes it is a bit thicker and sometimes it is extremely brittle. So depending on when you buy it, the shell may be different.
Fill- The fill although thick will start to thin out at around 95* F, so if you play in Florida or somewhere else hot, be careful it will thin out a bit.

As stated before, I have used a lot of this paint for one main reason, it is cheap. It can usually be found for around $40-50 which is not bad for such a great paint that will never let you down. In all, get some if you can. Nelson has been around for a long time, they know how to make paintballs.

Pros: Nasty fill
Cons: hard to find
This is up there as some of my favorite tourney paint if I can get a hold of it.
I've had the least amount of problems with this paint the same can be said about Marbs do to the slightly harder shell.

The shell seems pretty equal with Marbs and i've had less problems with
barrel brakes playing in different temps. Almost no seam,variety of shell
colors (no 2 toned just single color only)

The Fill is just nasty,very thick and plenty of it,it explodes and and just sticks.
Hard to wipe,easily seen. The down side is the last thing you want is a bolt chop and a barrel break. I've never had a bolt chop with this but I could only imagine. But I've had a barrel break with this once with a Stiffi it was a mess
to clean and I couldn't shoot through it without causing more breaks.

This paint stains,the best you can do is get it off as soon as possible and dowse the area with water to try and get at least some of it out.

The bore size is smallish usually .686 and under

For the quality and price it's hard to go wrong with this,I personally wouldn't use this for woodsball/recball since this stains pretty well and some fields won't allow paint that stains. It's a good buy if ya can find it

Used it a few times, brittle enough so it breaks on target, not a bad paint. Would use it again.

Pros: Thick Fill, Consistant, Pretty
Cons: Kinda TOO thick fill, kinda pricy some places
Well i've used all the best and worst brands of paint, and Anarchy remains one of my favs. It is very consistant, breaks well, and has a VERY thick and bright fill. The fills is kinda TOO thick tho in some instances. My tree is still very blue from over a year and a half ago, and most of my gear is stained somewhere from all the anarchy in this area. Its still really nice paint tho.
