reball for practice

[bluelite]

Can anyone give a review of the reball rubber practice balls that are designed to be played just like paintballs? What I would really like to know is how easy they are to maintain? Do they go out of round and if so, how quickly? Is washing them after use more of a hassle than they are worth? Do they leave any residue in your marker that is harder to remove than normal paintballs do? I did a search and the other thread did not have much info. My team is looking for ways to knock down some of our practice costs and this seems like a viable option if they perform as advertised. Anyone have any firsthand experience with these?

Run reball through my 05 approx 3000 times. No problems what so ever, no residue, not changed apperance at all. not washed them though just scopped em up and stuck em back in my hopper. My hopper has a bit of carpet fluff in it now but that's my fault not the reballs.

Personally I wouldn't fire them at anything I wouldn't fire a normal paintball at, so no tv is probably a bad idea.
I shoot them into a cool bag with a 'throw' wrapped up in it, they still go everywhere but it obviously knocks the speed out of them I have a vid if you know a host?

Hey Guys have any of you tried the - V Balls - they are supposed to be a target practice system, it says on the website, Im looking into getting them but wondering if anyone tried them yet and if they are worth it. http://www.vballs.com

hmm look a bit lame to be honest - look like they will be real light weight and look like they can easily be ruinined/broken/ripped
