Paintball Size Chart

I have attempted to list all of the paintballs that are available. I had a hard time finding certain paintballs on other charts. So, I thought I would help out the paintball community and keep a chart of all the paintballs and there average sizes so that you, the player, can match your barrel. If there is a paint that you do not see, please e-mail me so that I can update this list and make it as accurate as possible for the paintball community. If possible, try and get a measurement. This will save me time and money.

And to those that have helped bringing new paintballs to my attention, a big thank you!

*By popular demand, I have decided to share with my fellow paintball fans with a printable version of the paintball size chart. Click here to view it in PDF format.

To find a barrel to paint match, find the paint in the chart below. Most fields and tournaments require the use of there paint. Find out what that paint is. Look for that paint in the chart below. Read accross and find out what size it is designated. Look at the barrel chart and find the barrels with the matching bore description. This will be the right barrel to paint match.

You do not need to have the exact measurement. This chart shows the average sizes. Get close to the size. In fact, best to use a smaller bore barrel for a paint. This will offer a good seal, keeping the air behind the ball.

*Paintball sizes can change due to many variables such as weather, freshness of the paintball, and overall construction. The best way to see if the paintball matches the barrel is to place the paintball inside the bore of the barrel. If it rolls out, the paintball is to small for the barrel. If you have a very hard time blowing the paintball out of the barrel, the paintball is to big. If you can blow the paintball out of the barrel with moderate ease, you got a match.

If you want more detailed information about barrels, read through my Barrels - F.A.Q. for lot's of info. Also an article concerning Range.

The chart below lists the average sizes. Were possible, I have taken at least 20 paintballs per 500 count bags in a case and measured them with dial calipers. Others have been recieve from the manufacturer. To learn a little about paintballs, visit Paintballs - F.A.Q. for how the are made and how to keep them fresh if you have left over from the days game.
