I tried two fills: 100% OTR hard to buff, and 30% OTR hard to buff/70% OTR silver soultip paint.
In general: Feels good in the hand, and isn't too short to hold like a regular marker. It's also nice if you want to put the back end of it into your palm and write that way. Overall, a great shape. The nib is a great balance between soft and durable, and it's a great size for many different situations. It's like a slightly harder bullet tip version of a UNI PX-30 nib. In fact, you might be able to rock a PX-30 nib in this marker.
They made it easy to refill by making the opening wide and incorporating the valve into the portion that screws off, and also made it easy to dump out by having a plastic piece that keeps the marble from falling out. However, you need a roll of tape or something to hold it up while filling it because it has no flat bottom to stand up on its own.
100% OTR hard to buff: This marker writes streak free, totally kicks ass, and can go pretty long before pumping it again.
30/70 mixture: I'm honestly disappointed. I tried this after seeing the green ranger do it, and copied his ratio, but It goes dry after a letter or two. I think I need to keep adding more hard to buff. Maybe I will find the flow I need at 50/50 or more.
I definitely recommend it with a flowy ink like OTR hard to buff or OTR flowpen ink. At $3.50 it's hard to beat.
