What paint to get

everst75 · 08-05-2012, 07:46 AM

Hi I ordered my first pump recently and I wanted to know what paint to get. My field currently has draxus (i don't know what grade, it is red with orange fill) and I was wondering if I should get different paint while playing pump.

Get the highest grade you can, but you'll only need a bag of it which is always cheaper than buying a full case.

^ Yes! The better quality paint will give you the best accuracy and more of guarantee that it will break on your opponent. You must also make sure that you have a good paint to barrel match to ensure the best accuracy. I started using evil with my sniper, and I dont think I will ever use anything else.

I say shoot what ever you can get your hands on. Figure out what works best. For tourney style play get the higher end paint. For woodsball maybe a mid grade so the shell isn't too brittle that you can get through a few leaves.

Peace-

Evil or Ultra Evil
All Star
G.I. sportz 5 star
Premium is decent

Thats all I could think of at the moment.

Valken Redemption is my favorite

Honestly IMO i've seen to many cases of bouncy Evil d: no clue why, but my Empire Premium has treated me BEAUTIFULLY i've had maybe 6 barrel break's TOP'S over the past 8 cases i've shot. Premium does excellent, but any professional level tournament paint should do just as good! You're best bet though is to try different kinds and see what you like to use!

the best most expencive paint your local field has. you need to make sure that the single ball you shot at a body breaks, plus its much harder to shoot somone with paint thay doesnt fly strait

That is not always true

The most expensive paint is not always the best, it really is personal preference and what works good with your marker.
