Actually paintball sites tend to use hard shelled paintballs because they are less likely to break in the barrel - which is important when you are playing with ordinary people who have no inkling about how a paintball gun works, only ever use site guns and certainly don't carry a barrel squeegie with them. Makes the balls more likely to bounce rather than break although that is less of a problem when you are shooting at a plywood tank rather than Dave from H.R. wearing tracky bottoms, sweatshirt, two tee-shirts a fleece and cammo overalls.
