The 98 custom stock barrel is absolute crap so anything is better
The J&J ceramic (not mine I used my friend's) This is probably better than the Linear mainly because of the shoot thru breaks cleaning. |

| Review: |
I bought this barrel for my 98 Custom because I knew that I needed something better than the stock one. I looked around badlandspaintball.com for a nice cheap barrel that was still a good barrel and I read a few reveiws on here and decided to buy it. I dont have any real complaints about it. It does the job and works well. I know that there are better barrels out there, but I dont have any problems with this one so I am sticking with it.
I have heard from some people that these are not that easy to clean, but that hasn't really been an issue yet because of the ACT. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
A good barrel for quite a cheap price. Not the best barrel, but it gets the job done and is probably the best bang for your buck. |
