The cost with paintball is prohibitive though. Now that every paintball marker is set up to shoot 25+ ball per minute you spray away a lot of money during a full day.


Almost no field allows you to shoot 25 bps. Most are limited to 12-15 bps and 300 feet per second or less. Cost is ultimately up to you. We have plenty of recreational players that come out spend $20-$40 for 5 hours of fun. I really depends on the field. Find one that caters to recball and you will have a good time for the cost per hour.


It's been a while since i played so i haven't been up on the technology but...how is it possible to cap the bps? Is that an "honesty rule" or do most of the mid-high end markers let you set bps now?


The high end ones can set the BPS in the electronics (usually in the grip).


Yeah it is definitely a recball vs speedball division.
