T4E Battle Dust 0.43-Caliber Powder Balls

I have used both the.43 caliber paintball and the .43 caliber powderball or dust ball. I have found the paint version is good, but not as accurate as the dust version. The paint makes a gooey mess when they break in the barrel or chamber, which makes it harder to clean out. The dust version is much simpler to clean out if and when they do burst. Overall, I prefer the dust balls to the paint filled for it's durability, accuracy and easy clean up.

Grat alternative to kingman paint. Cleaner, no breakage. No mes. Still leaves proof of hit. Great for my 4 kingman pistols. I will order more.

Using these in a paint ball pistol for target practice and they shoot great! Easy clean up is the best part. We "shoot" in the back yard so lots of empty paint ball hulls and paint splattered fencing was becoming a problem. Battle Dust was the perfect solution!

Great ammo. I use it with my Walther P99 and its Accurate and heavy hitting, 5 Stars

I've been playing paintball with my kids for years using regular paintballs and Kingman Erasers. Battle dust balls far better than reg paint balls. Extremely accurate!!!

I have tried to use these powder balls in a .43 caliber Umarex P226 pistol which I have owned now for 6 years. I do have occasional breaks with paint and was expecting these powder balls to withstand more pressure from the magazine spring along with being more durable during the firing cycle. It seems that even though these balls feel more solid, and many are considering how much of a dent they leave in the wood target backers, they still are easily damaged in the magazine. I have had numerous breaks in both the magazine and chamber while using these powder balls. Breaking paint is bad enough but once you break a powder ball in your chamber or magazine it totally gums up the works. The slide will jam when trying to cycle the next round and the magazine will be inoperative if a ball breaks mid stack. Talk about a mess to clean out! With a paint ball break I can shoot through the rest of the magazine without issue other then loss of accuracy then swab the bore, insert a fresh magazine and go back to shooting. With the powder ball breaks I am totally out of action. The swab can't get enough of the residue out and cleaning the magazine is impossible without submerging in water or blowing it out with compressed air. It's a crumbled mess of waxy chalk and it gets in everything including the CO2 port. Just a horrible experience with these so far. I may have a bad batch or maybe these just don't like a pistol with a working slide but for now I'm sticking to the paint balls. Accuracy was no better with these either. In fact they drop much more since they weigh more so my aiming point has to be much higher with these. I don't think they will pose as much trouble in my RAP4 rifle since it uses shell cases to hold the balls and this should prevent damage in the magazine when under pressure. They may still have breaks in the chamber but the rifle is much easier to break down and clear out any debris. I was hoping for a much more accurate ball and less mess but neither of these situations have transpired. Again, this could be a bad batch but for the cost of another jar just to see if that may be the case is just not worth it for me.

They're ok...

These are really nice balls. I bought them for use in my KT eraser. I've had no issues with breakage at all, but that is likely because these balls are HARD. They can't be broken by squeezing them between your fingers, or even by spiking them into the concrete ground. Not even close. I've had a few bounce straight back at me off of trees that I've shot. I would not buy these to shoot at your friends. They are really fun for target shooting though, and look really cool when a puff of white powder explodes off your target.
