What caliber is a paintball?

Very much so. Paintball guns come in .43 .50 and .68 caliber, none of which can be used in place of the other. .50 and .43 caliber has been shown many times to be inferior to the common .68 caliber however. The size/mass/volume/and ballistic coefficient of the .43/50 cal are not able to match the performance that the .68cal is able to produce currently.

Also within the .68 caliber range there are differently manufactured paintballs averaging about .685 but usually range +/- .015.

This paint bore, and its matching to the barrel bore is the most important factor in accuracy: If a ball is smaller than the insides of a barrel (barrel bore) the ball may bounce around inside the barrel as it travels. This will cause in-accuracy. However a ball that is bigger than the barrel bore may break inside the barrel from the friction. It is common belief that finding the proper fit between paint and barrel (paint to barrel match) makes for the best effect.

High pressure air, and all air for that matter, is about 78 percent nitrogen, so it is nicknamed a "nitrogen tank" . So a HPA tank is supposed to be filled with "nitrogen" which is really just air.

Is there a law that limits the noise emitted from a paintball field in Pennsylvania?

Your local zoning ordinance may have limitations on noises that are defined as creating a public nuisance. Even without an ordinance, you cannot operate any business that creates a public nuisance if there are people nearby who want to stop it. It is a question of whether the abutters want to sue or have the town/county take action by itself.

What is the best sniper scope to use with a Tippmann A5?

Generally without high quality paint-to-barrel match or first strike rounds, Magnifying scopes are near useless. A red dot or reflexive sight is preferred, but a low power 2X scope would be the best if you really wanted a cross-hair scope.

Maximum range in paintball is largely considered 150ft or 50yards, nothing that you would need a magnifying scope for are you can easily see that far with your eyes alone. Beyond that, paintballs are not the most accurate things either so even with really good paint and a really good barrel, a crosshair scope will only be telling you where the paint "might" go. The only way I would recomend a crosshair scope or magnification is if you are using first strike rounds as they will be more accurate and give you more range

How long does a battery on an electric paintball gun last?

It depends completely on the Paintball gun and how fast you fire it, if you keep it on between games, and the battery voltage and type. I would estimate a 9v in a tippman may last two straight days or so without firing.

Is the vibe a good paintball gun?

It depends on what your definition of "good" is. The vibe was designed to bring the performance of an electropneumatic down to the price and simplicity level of entry markers. It's a simple and dependable gun that performs very well. It's not as upgradeable as a BT or rough and tough as a tippmann but for entry level speed ball or rec ball its great.

How do you use a paintball fill station?

I assume you mean an HPA fill station.

You connect the fill hose to the fill nipple of your tank by pulling the collar on the fitting at the end of the hose away from the tank, while pushing the fitting towards the tank.

There will be some sort of lever, button, or knob you will push to open the valve to fill your tank. Once the pressure gauge on your tank reaches the "FULL" mark (either 3000 or 4500psi, depending on your tank), you release the button/lever/knobzperiodz

How many fps do paint ball guns shoot?

paintballs can travel very far a straight horizontal shot @ 300fps(no apex, or flatline) could probably reach 125-140 ft. After that you can arc your shots by little incriments that will increase the range by alot. When the barrel is at a 38ish degree arc @ 295-300fps the paintball can actually reach 300 feet. A first strike paintball can actually reach 500 feet when arched correctly. also everytime you arc your barrel you can make a longer shot by at least 10 to 25 feet down range!! test it out
