Whats the advantage of the CCi nickel barrels, and r they worth the extra bucks?

They are a smaller bore size compared to stock cci barrels which allows you to shoot small paint like blaze and marbilzer better. They also look nicer.

No, at least I don't think so. It just allows you to shoot a slightly smaller paint than the stock barrel allowed you to. The stock bore size is like .687-.689 or something ( I don't remember, I saw it on a chart somewhere).

CCI detent rings work great if you want to use smaller size paint. I use blaze and have a stock barrel, use the BLUE detent ring for that and it works awsome...BLUE is medium size too? Maybe I should try the RED detent ring which is the smallest...hmm?
