Sorry if reposted,
Is there anything wrong with using Vballs in the A4 (or any gun for that matter?) And how well do they actually work...
I figure why waste money on paint snapping at practice when i can do it at home.
Thanks

Oh by the way, I dunno who took the time to post that long leaf spring bend trick for a lighter pull, but it worked GREAT, we did it last night.
Nothing wrong with using them that I can see. I shot a few at the PSP in June and they seemed to fly fairly straight. They will have a lower velocity than normal paint if you dont adjust. Like if your shooting 300 fps with real paint using these will be lower like 280 without changing the velocity screw.

Ive shot em, they r kool, but they dont seem to break very well....
If ur shooting in ur backyard, they are great.
What is Angelboi talking about? In his backyard? Breaking? I can't tell if he is joking.
The vballs are made of a fuzzy kind of dense velcro material. They are made to stick to a velcro target. I've shot them with my A4 without problems, although I could see someone being worried about a bit of fuzz or lint getting stuck on their sensi.
They're definitely made for indoor use. If they touched the ground outside, they'd pick up dirt like crazy. I guess you could wash them, but I don't know if they'd hold up. Also, they are REALLY small bore. I was shooting some with my cocker with the smallest freak insert and they were still rolling out. Their small size / weight is what probably causes them to chrono differently than regular paintballs. Other than that, they work pretty well inside. They do stick to the target well.

I guess the bolt just bounces back... or your gun explodes.

We use them in the house for snap shooting practice with revy, they only shoot about 25 ft accurately.
