There is a relative size to most paints... and I have found most cases of big ball to be on the small size, requiring me to use my medium or smaller barrels.

No way the big ball at river side is .689-.691, it rolled out of a .685 cocker insert when I played. And the big ball I buy rolls out a .684 micro shot.

use it the way it was designed, fit the paint to your insersts. take a few balls from the batch, check them out. Paint size will differ with temp and humidity, as will the size of your inserts will with temp changes.

i have a freak kit as well and i have used every insert atleast once. so when fitting your paint try and get the ball into as tight a insert as you can without the ball getting stuck, it should rest in the insert tighty and be easilly blown out, if your face turns purple trying to blow it out then its too small.
