Everytime i go to go play paintball, i have an accuracy problem. Its probably just me, but it seems the range on my gun, tippmann 98 custom is completley balls. I looked at the flatline, but i heard mixed opinions, such as that it has tremendous distance, bu you cant hit the broad side of a barn(not meant to be cocky) I just need advice on the most accurate and longest distance barrel within a good $ range.
thanks

yah no offense but i cant stand tippmans sure they are good and durable but there aiming sucks. Get the flatline it kicks just a bit off, a pain sometimes

Get a Smart Parts All American Barrel. This dude at where I play at "usually" get me out with this barrel cause he lobs them like 60 yards. I also has great accuracy. (he has a 16 inch.) Also you should try the 32 Degrees 16" Sniper barrel. on the reviews for the barrel it sounds like it has great range and accuracy.

first off, m98 customs kick ***. mine is great. anyways, i would look into a lapco bigshot. you can find them for around $50. granted they are hard to find, but it is a great barrel. secondly i would go with a JJ ceramics. that is what i have on mine and it works perfect. i've played with it twice and have had no ball breaks. they run about $40 at various places online.

all the accuracy comes from the perfect paint and barrel match.

Go with the Lapco, J&J ceramic, 32 degrees nyte stick, or my favorite The 32 degrees terminator. The Flatline does kick ***, but since you have to install it on the gun you cant just take the barrel out and swab it easy. If it gets gunked up on the field YOU ARE SCREWED. Personally I would go with the Terminator. This barrel truly is underrated. Not many people have heard of it. My brother has one and it kicks MAJOR arse on his Tippmann, its accurate as hell and fires just about every paint the same. PLUS ITS UNDER 50 BUCKS. If you can find one I suggest you try it, you wont regret it.

go with the terminator or the dye ss those are the two I have and they're excellent personally I like the dye cause it's more accurate and shoots further

A properly installed flatline barrel is the most accurate and longest shooting marker.

Flatlines are sweet if u get em in right. Awsome range and they ARE accurate by the way. Otherwise a J&J 2 peice $20-$30 cheaper than a boomstick, looks better, and its made of the same materials and both have similar bores, cant go wrong with it. If u dont like the J&J get a Smart Parts barrel, all of them are good.

my old model 98 shot great with either my dye or J&J, you cant go wrong with either, i havent tried the bigshot but i heard accuracy with it was awesome
