| Review: |
Accuracy:
Now there is a reason why many people complain about the barrels accuracy. It's probably because they are using smaller paint. With the correct bore to paint size, its pretty reliable/accurate when shooting at far range.
Looks:
I wish Tippmann gave us different options for the barrel shroud as i do not like the current one.
Range:
Does it really increase the range on your marker? Yes, but just make sure you adjust you velocity to accomodate the barrel's needs (somewhere around 260-280 fps)
Installation:
The installation process is pretty bad on Tippmann's part. You'll have to losen the front bolts on your marker in order to fully attach the barrel and then tighten it afterwards. Just a little flaw though, no biggie. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
If you're looking for increased range, particularly for woodsball, this barrel is recommended. If you want to actually hit people from far instead of just scaring them, get paint that matches its bore size .690. |
