Paintballs will vary in their size depending (Note the factors mentioned are as if they have just been taken from the package they came in the first time.) on A. Who made them, B. the Humidity when they were made, C. wether or not they are cheap pbs or if they are more expensive. (Price normally states the quality.) Cheaper ones would vary in size and weight slightly more then more expensive ones.

Note I believe I saw something somewhere I don't remeber where but it said their are like only 6 machines that make pbs in the good old US of A and mostly are ordered by pb companies.

Note: don't quote me on this I am sick and sleepy some. So I am having a hard time thinking strait.
