The red or pink foam is ordered from china and is some what hard to come by. The beige foam is great for the price.
What type of darts are you planning on making?

I assume you're talking about the Hot Rod XL.

I haven't tried the Red foam but the Tan foam is what I use for all my Muzzle loaders (Maverick, Jolt, Triad). I don't use washers and felt, what I actually do is use a BB weight. I get better ranges in all three using BBs instead of washers.

A guy named Modman used to sell red foam, but he doesn't do that anymore. The only way to get "red" foam now is to get MHA pink foam. Beige foam is actually good foam, it is just harder to recover and you will probably lose a lot of darts.

Oh gosh yes. Those darts like to disappear without a trace especially in fall.

I wouldn't recommend using tan foam for clip blasters though. I find the grey Menards (Frost King?) foam gets me better ranges in my clip blasters than the tan does.



As for the 'red' foam. Wasn't someone (modman?) doing an order with the same company a little while back to make blue foam? I wonder what happened, did he go ahead with it or cancel. Hmmm...

That was me. I got scammed and lost a lot money. I used to sell red foam too, but that foam has been sold out for a while.
