this is cool

From Tiberius Arms -

Paintball's First Sniper Round

Utilizing a combination of aerodynamic shape and fin stabilization technology, First Strike Projectiles maintain their velocity longer. The result is 50% greater range and unrivaled accuracy. Finally players have an alternative to accuracy by volume or backspin gimmicks that simply change trajectory. Become one of the first true paintball snipers with first strike. First Strike conversion kits are available for all Tiberius Arms markers.

Test conducted by firing 5 paintballs and 5 First Strike Projectiles from the same marker at the same velocity (300fps) from a bench mount at a 45 degree angle

Max Range of a standard paintball - 337 feet
Max Range of First Strike Projectile: 510 feet

Test conducted by firing 15 standard paintballs and 15 first strike projectiles from the same marker, on a bench mount, at the same velocity (290fps) on an indoor range at 100 feet.

Watch it being discussed at Warpig.com http://warpig.com/paintball/technica...ows/pbextra09/
on PigTV. Looks promising,Ammo is made out of some type of plastic. Discribed as rigid But will shatter(like a potato chip).Makes it fly more like real ammo(not paint)

[extrabonez]

nice idea but idk about being shot at by a person shooting paint w/ chunks of plastic attached even if they do break on impact..that plastic still has to go somewhere..

Saw it on Nation. They look kinda cool. I wonder how much they'll cost.

I'm guessing you would have to have some type of clip loading system? Or feed one at a time?

looks like a mini badmittin bird thingy. you know what i mean. tem dollars for what 5? sounds pricey but maybe for a big woods game where a sniper would really important. wonder if many fields would allow them

a shuttlecock... yeah those are a bit pricey

[irishwarrior]

I would definitely get these if I could use them in my marker. Too bad it requires mags...
