I recently tested 6mm paintballs (again).  Unfortunately they
have not improved.  I do NOT recommend them for RC tank
combat.

breakage rate at ten feet onto a flat surface
electric Airsoft gun = 60 percent
spring Airsoft gun = 90 percent

effective range for accurate aiming
electric Airsoft gun = 10 yards
spring Airsoft gun = 15 yards

I also tested the new Kingman Chaser 11mm (0.43 inch)
pistol.  It is very impressive.  I could reliably hit targets at
35 yards with 100 percent breakage rate.  One 12g C02
cartridge fires about 90 rounds.

It is currently $140 and may be a little difficult to mount
in a turret.  However it appears to be very popular and the
price may drop later this summer.

The Chaser will never replace 0.68 markers for long-range
gunners but may be useful for small tankettes and armored
cars with small turrets.
