less ...or more?
No video test is gonna convince me either way. Until I get to spend some time with a 50cal on a field, I'm not gonna make my mind for or against.

i agree with jack.
and a lot of people should have the common sense to realise that:
1) No-one is expecting the world to go 50cal overnight.
2) No-one should expect to like 50cal from a bunch of hype and promo.
3) No-one is expecting you to make the switch - either straight away or at all.
The only way people are going to be convinced or sold on 50cal is when they get to see it in action, for real, themselves. not on a video. in their hands and on the field.
until i have done that, i will remain open minded.

I will have a goTell you what is a better idea......... Let's get someone who has not posted on threads and voiced an opinion, as some of your posts are anti .50
Dex, I read a quote that the costs were comparable to 68 paint of the same quality. Anyone got some real figures ?
I have real figures.
But you have to know something first.......... When comparing the prices you have to bare in mind that the ball has to be made with the same materials. There are 3 different main ingredients......... Peg (most expensive and best all high grade tournamnet paint is made with peg), Starch (cheaper than Peg but will leave chalky marks, almost all other grades are made with starch) and finally Oil (the cheapest of the 3 and the worst for the envioroment and most low end cheap paint is made with oil).
All of the prices I am quoting are for PEG filled balls.
