Both these barrels have great reviews and are the same price, but I won't be able to get the BS for 3 weeks for the same price as the 32 degrees. The thing is Lapco has such a great reputation I'm just not sure which one to go with.

Get the Bigshot. The 32 degrees is 16 in.! That's too long for a barrel.

can you get good distance off of the big shot? because I know that the sniper has great distance, I was wondering if that's true about the big shot?

Barrel 20 ft 50 ft 80 ft
Dye 5.5" 13.5" 25.0"
Smart Parts 8.5" 18.0" 28.0"
Bob Long 4.0" 10.5" 26.0"
Lapco 4.0" 6.5" 17.0"
They did a test at paintballtimes.com and the lapco Stainless Steel Autospirit outperformed all those barrels with the greatest legnth and accuracy.
Yeh i've heard that the 32 Degrees Sniper barrel was great even with how long it is..I would purchase it if it was shorter though..but i may consider buying it later on now that i have my Custom products barrel :)

The range of a barrel is determined by the velocity at which it is shot at. Therefore, all barrels have the same range, unless they put backspin on the ball. (Like the Flatline.)

they used all the barrel on a tippman 98 with the same velocity.

I wasn't saying that your figures weren't accurate. They never said that one of the barrels shot farther than the other.
