good luck...tippmann hasnt done a very good job keeping the bore size consistant from batch to batch. i have found that larger medium bore balls fire well and some large bore. the best test is just drop one through ur barrel. if it falls straight through its too small...if it gets stuck and u can easily blow it out its an okay match, and if u cant get it out then its too big. sorry, wish i could give u a better strategy.
 
EVERYTHING varries with batch, weather, age of balls.

The only strategy is to drop the balls through. If you only have a big (for example) bore barrel then just buy cheaper brand paint, Diablo make all sorts of paint, but Hellfire is typically smaller than say Blaze, which is cheaper.

The best way to cope is to have a few barrels, that way you fit the barrel to the paint that is available rather than trying to dso it the other way round
