In order to have the best time playing paintball, you must have reliable paintballs.  Paintballs that won’t fly straight or break before exiting your gun can cause you to be more of a target than a threat on the field.  There are numerous different brands and variations of paintballs to choose from; make sure you pick the right size and type that will work best with your particular gun….

Paintballs are made of a non-toxic, bio-degradable, sugar based paint encapsulated by a thin, harder shell of similar make-up.  Upon impact, paintballs break open, leaving a splat of paint effectively ‘marking’ your target.  The paint from a paintball washes off clothing with a normal wash cycle and will generally not leave a stain. 


Most paintball paint will naturally degrade in the environment, however if left to dry on its own may leave a residue that can be hard to remove, depending on the surface.  For the easiest removal, cars, houses and windows should be cleaned as soon as possible, preferably before the paint has a chance to dry. 


There are numerous different types and sizes of paintballs offered by different brands to choose from.  It’s smart to learn this information before buying so the size/type you purchase will be the best match for your particular marker.  First make sure you have the right size ball; paintballs are available in .68, .43 and now .50 to be used in a compatible sized marker.


Paintballs also come in various different grades ranging from cheaper, recreational balls to more expensive, tournament grade.  Recreational grade paintballs are for practicing or general play; they are what’s most commonly used at commercial fields and sold at sporting goods stores.  They often have a thicker, firmer shell and can be shot by nearly any paintball marker (as long as it’s the correct size).


Tournament grade paintballs are meant for higher end, competition paintball markers, often used in professional meets and competition.  These balls have a much thinner shell, break easier and are more expensive because they are more consistent in size and shape and therefore more reliable – nearly guaranteeing they will fly straight and break upon impact every time.


Recreational grade paintballs are best bought from a local store whenever possible.  The cost of shipping added to even the cheapest grade of balls makes them nearly cost prohibitive to buy through the mail.  Besides convenience, selection is the advantage of purchasing your paintballs from an internet store.  You will have much more choice of different brands, grades and quality when shopping online.


As you will be paying more for them anyway, you will find the best selection of tournament grade paintballs online than you will at a brick and mortar storefront.  Also, keep in mind paintballs can become damaged when traveling in the mail, no matter what shipping method you choose.


We know that sometimes buying your paintballs online can cost a bit more (because you pay for shipping), but the advantage is selection.  At ChoicePaintballGuns.com, we offer grades, sizes and varieties not found in your local store or commercial field.  Add a box of paintballs to your order and enjoy the convenience of having them delivered directly to your front door!
