I want to get the largest order of paint together we can and try to get a discounted bulk order from Draxxus or RPS so I want your estimates/orders now. I think we should get as much Hellfire as we can, but I don't want to foot the entire bill.... Last year I ordered between 16 and 25 cases so I'm hoping if we get it all at once we can save some cash and put it into the field...
We'll get whatever paint most people want....
Harvey: 6
Mansmith: 6
Fred: 6
Barber: 2

Depending on how much a case, i'll be in for probably 6. I was really impressed with xball last year, but if i can get better for around the same price, thats fine with me. I wouldn't mind a nice sade of blue for my color.

After much thought I decided to order 2 cases of Anarchy, one blue/yellow, one silver/pink. It's $46.95 a case, $12.50 per bag, $.0275 per ball. Anarchy seems to be the largest bore and most consistent paint I can find (per $) and after last week that is a definite plus... For this weekend, Karnage remains the economy grade at $35 a case, $10 per bag, and $.0225 per ball. We'll use the rest of the Karnage up before I worry about making a real order for everyone, but at least we have a little more coming for next weekend. I literally spent 4 hours searching before I decided to go with the 2 cases of Anarchy. I was originally going to try getting a selection, but for the extra $ this just seemed like a better move. Xball still seems to be the best overall value, but I thought the larger bore took precedent this week.
Mansmith if you can find that review it might be helpful for next time... I think the Draxxus is out, it has one of the smallest bore sizes and thats just not good for any of my guns. It also costs $15-20 more per case. I would consider the rec grade, but it's almost the same price as the Anarchy so we'll see.

well if anarchy is the key then I prefer Mayhem as it is Purple Shell/Blue Fill so thats my seasonal call.

Well you can buy Mansmith's Karnage for $35ish, or get a a few bags of Anarchy, or wait for the next order. lol
It was pretty much a matter of shipping I wanted to get as close to $100 as I could without breaking it. I wanted to get as little paint as possible, but still get free shipping. I had $10 in gear so 2 cases of Anarchy were the best solution. Rec sport was only a little less expensive than the Nelson, but it was just cheap enough to deprive me of free shipping. With the larger bore size and slight difference in price the Nelson just worked better for this order.
