6mm paintballs

Has anyone used 6mm paintballs? I was wondering how good they are? How powerful does the pistol you use have to be to splat them? And has anyone experienced them break open inside their guns?

Dont use the paintballs, my experiance with them has been poor, they were miss shapen and exploded in my gun

I bought a small number of the 6mm paintballs, and yes there were oddly shaped, but also when held up to the light they had varying levels of paint inside.



I tried 60 in my friends kwc glock with hopup, and it worked 100% fine, every shot was ok and it worked well. Took a nice photo of the shed with little splats everywhere.



BUT when I tried it in my metal P6318 airsoft PPK, they repeatedly exploded inside the pistol, it never successfully worked with them. A bit disappointing as they worked so well on my mates pistol.

I guess that different guns work and others done then ehh. If you want paintball fun get a paintball gun modeled after a rifle

if you must use paintballs use them in a cheap springer that you dont care about never in anything high priced
