The year is 1883 – Corruption and greed has plagued this Wild West town since the booming cattle trade times of the Great Western Cattle Trail. The Dodge City Gang have dominated the law enforcement and whiskey trade of the town, although the locals have had enough. You and your sharp-shooting allies have been rounded up to oust the gang and hand back control to the mayor. Get your pistols out and confront the gang – yee haa!
Delta Force Paintball Australia, the country’s leader in high-octane skirmish action, has officially announced a nationwide transition from traditional .68 caliber paintballs to the more advanced .50 caliber "Low Impact" technology.
This strategic move is designed to enhance the player experience across all skill levels, making the sport more accessible, tactical, and—most importantly—fun.
Why the Change? The Science of "Low Impact"
For years, the .68 caliber ball has been the industry standard, but it often came with a "sting" that intimidated newer players. By switching to .50 caliber, Delta Force is prioritizing a smoother game without sacrificing the thrill of the hunt.
| Feature | .68 Caliber (Old) | .50 Caliber (New) |
| Impact Energy | Higher (approx. 12-13 Joules) | Lower (approx. 5 Joules) |
| Weight | Heavier | 50% Lighter |
| Pain Level | Significant "Sting" | 60% Reduction in felt impact |
| Accuracy | Standard | High (Less drag/better flight) |
"Our goal has always been to provide the most immersive paintball experience in the world. By moving to .50 caliber, we’re removing the 'fear factor' for beginners while giving our seasoned vets a more precise, tactical tool to dominate the map." — Delta Force Operations Team
The rollout is currently live across all Australian centers. Whether you’re defending the Tomb Raider pyramid or storming the Black Hawk Down extraction point, the new .50 cal era is here to stay.

Arm yourself with awareness and check out Delta Force’s top tips for playing safely in the summer.
With summer now well and truly upon us here in Australia, it’s the perfect time to get outside
and active in the uniquely adrenalizing Delta Force style! As always, customer safety remains our number one priority, and while the excitement of the sun does provide the perfect setting
for a day’s paintball, it does also bring with it some important safety measures we would advise players to observe to ensure they’re properly prepared for the hot conditions. With that in mind, we present Delta Force’s top tips for turning up the heat:
1. Dress for the weather.
With the weather this hot, it’s so important to wear minimal,
lightweight clothing for combat like shorts and t-shirts. You’ll still be well protected by our signature body armour or overalls, provided onsite, but too many layers will trap the heat and weigh you down!
2. Eat a warrior’s breakfast.
Fuelling your body for the active day ahead will go such a long way in giving you the battle ready energy you need for your paintball experience. Please make sure you eat well before coming!
3. Stay hydrated.
It is so crucial you stay hydrated throughout your day when running around in the summer heat. Our staff recommend the use of camelbacks or hydration packs to keep on your person during the session, otherwise cold drinks can be bought onsite if you forget to bring your own.
4. Stay informed.
Keep an eye on how the weather’s looking for your paintball adventure – booking the morning session is always a good idea if you want to avoid the peak heat of the day! And of course, our expert staff and marshals will always be onsite to make sure you have the smoothest, most enjoyable day possible. Sun’s out, guns out – see you in the field!
Delta Force Paintball was born in the 1980’s, in the south of London. Since then, the business has grown exponentially. We now operate over 50 centres across 7 countries.
