i'm thinking of getting a .40 caliber paintball gun, but i want to make sure it's allowed on paintball fields. i don't see why it wouldn't, since it seems like the size of the paintballs would leave a large enough hit to meet the required hit size. i called the two biggest paintball fields here(southern CA) and no one has heard of it, so they don't know whether or not to allow it, hehehe...

So does anyone have experience with .40 caliber markers, or know of their legality on the field?

Also, i suppose it would need quite a different velocity to have the range equivalent to a regular .68 caliber. can anyone shed some light on how the velocity would change?
