Paintball Quality

My local field sells these brands in order of their price. What are the current opinions of the following; how cheap can I go without problems? All I've shot is Marbalizer.

I'd like to get away with Shrapnel, but from searching it looks like the best cheap paint may be Stinger.

Marbalizer

Premium

Stinger

Shrapnel

I usually stick my gun under their mask and ramp on their face for a few seconds to disorient them, then I proceed to tank whip them in the nuts repetitively until they pass out in the middle of the field so I can wear them on my back like a buffalo hide and sneak behind the rest of their team. lol

Well it might be FPO. Stingers are great paint for the money. Ive only used them once but they performed pretty good for me. The fill was a little runny but you can expect it to be like hellfire.

I hate Stingers The size of them is so random they drive me insane! I tried to use them in my Phantom but some times I would get roll outs because they run so small they would roll right through my detent rings and the next ball would be so big I'd get a break. What's the cost difference your field is charging? Cheap paint is great if you want to shoot as much as possible but I like to hit people with paint that will actually fly straight and break on target.

Go with either the Marbilizer or the Premium.
They're both a bit pricy, but in the end, it's worth it. You get what you pay for.

On the other hand, when I went to ChicagoLand Paintball when I visited over there, and used the Premium they had, it was a little dimply and I got barrel breaks like no tomorrow... The shell wasn't as brittle as it usually is either...
That was the only time I ever had that kinda problem with Premium, ever, so I'm hoping that was a one time deal, or just a bad batch
