If you want to become a true paintball professional, you need to know everything about the required equipment for a match. The marker is one piece, but undoubtedly, the paintballs or game ammunition are another essential element.
Although there are currently different types of paintballs, the main distinction in this type of ammunition is choosing between winter or summer pellets.
You must select ammunition according to the season you'll be playing in, as winter pellets withstand very low temperatures without hardening or consequently cracking.
However, summer paintballs are specifically designed for high temperatures because a much thinner film covers the paint.
Moreover, what makes the difference is that you can choose special ammunition for each type of paintball game.
Types of paintballs:
- Reball pellets are used because they're very delicate and reusable. Indeed, the manufacturer will tell you how many times you can reuse them.
- Glow-in-the-dark pellets, specially made for night paintball matches.
- Single-use pellets, commonly used in paintball battlefields.
- Scented paintballs.
- Special pellets for indoor paintball.
