different formulation fill and shell that is more resistant to getting hard / brittle in cold temps.
^^^ that is the theory. Thin, watery fill has been the only consistent attribute I have ever seen.
The most remarkable batch was for a January game near San Antonio (typical ~40F - 50F). "Made in Columbia" . "Store at or below 80F". What were the odds it made it from Columbia to Texas while staying below 80F? It was the worst I've ever seen. Dimples, warts, and egg shapes. Some were so hard you couldn't crush them in your hand. Others would fall 18 inches and pop open like a cracked egg. Very thin fill. Apparently, about 1 in 20 or so were the extra fragile ones, as that seemed to be the average number of shots we would get before another one broke in the barrel. With so many defects, you couldn't tell if the paint in the barrel made any difference.
Boo! Winter paint, boo!
the pro caps winter we tested year ago did exactly like it advertised. it was the proper brittleness and toughness at colder temps when regular paint was inappropriate.

i love shooting some post world cup evil through my pump seems to break on everything.
way back in the dark ages we never played if the temp got below 60 because the paint got so hard. if its cold and hunting season is open i'll probably be hunting.
