Draxxus is my favorite paint (reason I carry it at my field). Even the cheap stuff (Triumph) is great for the price. Bronze is my favorite because IMO it beats comparable RPS paint. It has a brittle shell, but not so brittle it breaks in the marker. Great fill, it's bright and I have never had a problem with it staining. http://www.procapsdi...t-grenades.aspx, you can find all their paint and msrp.

I like Bronze. Breaks well but not too brittle. Good all around paint. Triumph is pretty consistent size wise but tends to bounce pretty bad. In my experience anyway.

I use triumph and rec-sport for my practice paint, but I always use silver or better at tournaments
My sig was edited / removed because it was not within the rules. Images used in signatures are to be less then Width of 600px, and height of 160px. Only ONE image is aloud in the signature, and it must be 30k or less. Only 5 lines of text are aloud. No text larger then size 2 is aloud in the signature.

My image was over the 30k AND My text was too big I really am a muppet

I like DXS silver the best, not to brittle like gold is and more brittle than bronze is, kind of the best of both worlds.

this is probably the best paint i shoot. Bronze would be cheapest, then Silver, then Gold is at like 65 bucks a case. But that's superb tourny paint. I like to shoot Bronze and their Blaze alot.

Use it. I love the Bronze. I also used midnight before, but it swerved all over the place. Bronze is your
best bet. So consistent and havent had barrel break in like 10 cases(so far :P). It's also a plus that my local proshop
sells it for like $40 a case in the store.
