Anyone know where I can get a handheld paintball bore sizer?

Hmmm that is close to what I was after but not quite right. I have seen people in videos use these things before. You just slide a few paintballs through the series of holes that are marked and you can check the roundness of the paintball and the caliber of it blah blah blah. I just can't find them anywhere.

That's pretty much the idea. The only problem with those is I have heard some really bad consumer reviews.

So your saying they aren't exactly the same as the barrels?

The sizer is great, I just dont like the barrel.
Not as accurate as my Apex or Freak barrels.
I do use the sizer all the time.

I have the hammerhead one as well and works great. You can buy them separate for about 10-12 bucks. Also have and old school Empire one similar to the one Icehouse linked.

I just checked out the hammerhead one and it only matches two of the five Flasc barrel sizes.

You don't need the bore sizes to match what you have for barrels exactly.

But isn't that the point of having a bore sizing kit?

I run a Freak kit on all my stuff and I just take a hand full of paint and put a few through until I'm happy with the fit. If you turn blue trying to blow the ball out the sizer, chances are your doing it wrong! Also I check later in the day if it warms up and some times go to a larger Freak. Its funny I was getting .675 paint for the longest time but the last three boxes have been .685?  Feyd...................
