New player gun question(s)

Ok, i just bought a Diablo Mongoose II LCD

i also bought a Halo TSA LED loader, and 32degrees team colors paint


When i shoot those paintballs,they are constantly breaking in the gun/barrel.
Im not 100% sure if its the gun, barrel,or paint

i think mostly the paint bc my friend let me shoot some of his Draxxus paint,and nothing bad happened

but i never got the chance to put it on auto or multi burst, so not sure whast happening

will buying more expensive paint make all the difference, or does the barrel cause my problems

i know that full auto wont work well bc my loader cant keep up w/ the gun

if the gun worked with draxxus just fine then your paint prolly just isnt good. some good paint that i use is diablo formula 13 and premium is good also.

it is most likely the paint, and not simply because its bad paint (i never used it so i dont know its bad for sure)

what it would be is a bad paint to barrel match. paintballs come in slightly different sizes. even tho it says .68 calibur on the box, it still varies by brand. in all actuality, it can vary from .681 to .695, and a difference of even .002 can cause paint failure/accuracy issues.

the best way to tell if your paint to barrel match is good......

take your barrel off the gun
put a paintball in the end of the barrel
if it just rolls out the other end, it is too small
if it dont roll out, try to blow it out
if it wont blow out or takes a moderate to extreme pressure, it is too big
if it blows out with light to moderate pressure, its the perfect size.
