Paintballs

Choosing the best paintball gear comes easy with so many manufacturers of paintball markers, goggles, carrying cases, and accessories. All of that means nothing, however, without quality paintballs to sling downrange at your opponents. Within the paintball realm, there are many different types of paintballs, including those you can reuse for practice or “clean” games, recreational, and professional-grade. Each type has different levels of brittleness and specifications to which they must adhere. 

In addition, players can also take advantage of “first strike” paintballs to defeat their opponents. These new sniper projectiles feature the same rounded paintball shape players are used to, with the addition of a finned rear section. This tail section helps the paintball stabilize in flight to increase accuracy over longer distances. Though they are more expensive than traditional paintballs, first strike rounds tend to be well worth the investment. 

Players who choose to shoot first strike paintballs may need to adapt their marker for these rounds. While the projectiles themselves retain a tighter tolerance than most round paintballs, they do require a tight seal for optimal results. First strike rounds measure within a few points of .68 caliber, so you’ll need to adjust your marker accordingly, potentially with a conversion kit. In a pinch, you may be able to unscrew the barrel, manually load the first strike round, reattach the barrel, and fire. This takes a lot of time and can make you vulnerable to attacks, so it’s not always an ideal scenario.

Though slightly higher in price than your typical paintballs, First Strike rounds should be something every paintball player gets to experience. These projectiles feature a stabilizing rear section that acts like rifling to keep your rounds flying faster and more accurately over longer distances. Specialized markers with magazine-feed systems are necessary to use First Strike rounds. The brittle shell resists temperature changes and moisture-related damage, and are fully biodegradable and safe for the environment.

The T4E Powder Ball (.43 Caliber) is a chalk-powder filled round designed for home defense and force-on-force training applications.
