Hhmmmmm...

Aimed entirely at training (the non tournament kind), so I doubt they'll ever be used in our markers.

BUT...

Bottom of the page states that they'll be bringing this 'golf' technology to the paintball, with the same goopy, bright coloured fill we've all come to know and love.

I tested these out last year. at less than 25 meters, they were more accurate than paint, over 25, they swerve off a bit, but travel further. And... the powder looks awesome when it hits something, the pink fill ones i tried looked like a blood splat when it hit someone...

You are right, but the hit is more than obvious!

Didnt RPS try something similar a few years back with a double shelled, deliberately dimpled paintball?

That stuff was awesome!

Ask Madtoxic how much these things sting on impact

To be fair they are designed to be fired at someone in full military kit
