Frequently Asked Questions

The simple answer:

• 9 oz: 300-400 rounds
• 12 oz: 500-600 rounds
• 20 oz: 800-1000 rounds

However, CO₂ efficiency is a complex science with a lot of variables. The amount of ammo you can shoot through with a given amount of CO₂ depends on several factors.

• Weather: You will get fewer shots in cold weather due to less pressure in your tank
• Your Gun: Every gun is different. Most semi-auto guns use blow-back to recock between rounds. That uses CO₂. Tippmann's A5 has a pretty cool cyclone feed to load the next paintball. Let's just say those that shoot A5's come back for more refills and generally have larger tanks.
• Gun Maintenance: There are several O-rings and seals within a paintball gun, all intended to keep the CO₂ where it's supposed to be. Keeping them lubricated often will improve CO₂ efficiency.
• A full tank: Sadly, many fields and pro-shops don't give a full fill. We will! We full fill guarantee it.

How much somebody shoots depends a lot on how trigger-happy the player is. Terrain can play a big part though, specifically how far you can see. If you're playing in an area that is densely wooded, you'll shoot less than if you're playing in a more open area where you can see further. Essentially, if you can see where your opponent is hiding, it's far more likely that you'll shoot, even if they are out of range or behind cover. On a field with decent cover that you can't see really far, most people will shoot around 500 rounds in a few hours of play. We sell paint by the bag or by the case. Make sure the amount of paint you buy relates to the amount of CO2 you have.

Getting shot with a paintball can hurt a little, how much depends on the person. It's about the same as a good pinch or being snapped by a towel. Fortunately, there's a few ways to make it hurt less. You can wear a little padding. A hoodie or canvas jacket seems to work pretty well. Another way is just to get your adrenaline pumping. The more you get into the game, the less it will hurt when you get shot.

If you're not sure if you can take it, try this:

1. Grab an average rubberband
2. Spread the rubberband between 2 fingers
3. Hold the rubberband against your leg
4. Pull back the rubberband and let go

The best thing that can happen to somebody scared of being shot is actually to be shot. It's seriously not as bad as the hype.

Wear comfortable, durable clothing that you don't mind getting dirty. Long sleeves, old jeans or cargo pants, and a hoodie or jacket are ideal. Sturdy shoes or boots with good traction are recommended. Gloves can also help protect your hands. Does the paint wash out?
