What paint has the best bang for the buck

I know what some really good paint is but a lot of it is expensive. What paint is decent and cheap.

uhh not bigball. most draxxus is good, and i love the new xball series, bronze is cheapest, it has thick shells so its good for practicing because it wont break in your gun.

I can't really choose because the field makes us use theirs. Otherwise I used to use draxxus midnights alot.

I don't like menace for some reason. The black shell screws with my hopper on occasion, and that blue fill for some reason makes me ill... and it smells bad.

Well actually I have not had good luck with it as the field that I played at that used it as house paint had some really crappy menace paint.. all the balls were dimpled and deformed, but at $30/case, what do you expect.

I like the nelspot stuff -- cheap and I have yet to have really big problems with it.

I normally use bigball. But it has just recently been added to wal marts. Its not the normal wal mart style ball. It is actually decent. BUt when i have a little extra around 45-50 i usually get Pmi all-star. Last paint i got was Gold midas touch from Xpb. it was $25. No dimples, but 2 or 3 breaks in each bag. But after a little cleaning they was fine.

Ive tried some wallmart stuff and some brands of draxxus, all of which are alright.

However, i traded my friend for a bag of bronze xball and since ive shot that, im not shooting anything else. It the best paint ive ever used. Its a tad expensive tho, depending on where you get it its like 43-48.

a tad expensive? most high quality paint is $50+ when you buy it at your field. $43 is a good deal for field paint.
