Paint does not typically have a bore size marked on it because it can vary from the day it is made to day it is shot.
One mistake many people make is not paying attention to the temperature that they are using their paint in or the temperature they keep the paint at during a game. It is always funny to hear people complain about paint on Sundays during a scenario game after they left it sit in the back of a truck over night in freezing temperatures.

yeh you can get marbs at dicks, but they are pretty beat up.

for christmas a relative from england gave us some money for paintballs. We had to buy them as she asked us to spend it on paintballs as she knows how much we play.
So we tried Freedom Balls.

DONT buy them if you have an ELECTRONIC marker.

But i have a tippmann 98 custom, and damn they flew straight. Yeh yeh the fill isnt great, but the ball color is cool, and i say it again, they flew really stright for me at least.

Cheap paint that flies stright. Good enough for me!!!

hey man, thanks for the tip. I went ahead and ordered a case of the RP Sherer Stingers for $35 a case and have had no chopping, no dipples and they flew straight as an arrow.

Just realize what can happen to paint in transit to your house by UPS. UPS trucks are not climate conditioned, have you ever seen how they handle those boxes?, If you order near the weekend and it doesn't arrive by Friday, it is going to sit in a un-conditioned warehouse somewhere... etc..
I can never blame someone for buying paint to save money, just don't expect it to be a great deal everytime.
