I am either going to purchase a boomstick, normal titanium or ultralite ironman i have not decided yet, or a freak set. I was wondering which would be the best, and if it is the freak should i use freak or all american fronts. thanks

I would say get a kit over a single barrel any day, as for the fronts, the only difference is the AA front is quiter.

I would take a single bore barrel over a kit any day. Especially when it comes to Boomer and Freak. Unless you have a closed bolt marker, I truely find the freak useless, you dont need to have your paint matched exactly at all times to get an accurate shot. As long as the barrel is bigger than the paint, you'll have a good shot. Get like a .690, or .692 boomer and be done with it.

Ya, but you will get crap effeciency like that. I still believe there is an accuracy gain to the barrel/paint match. I own a boomer and a freak, I do notice a small accuracy gain when using my freak mached to the paint, over the boomer with smaller/larger paint. I have not done any official testing, its just my opinion.

The boomy is pretty much overrated, but again, what CK said is true.

You would be surprised how much your efficiency goes down, its close to unnoticable.

Unless you find an awesome deal, and you get it used, you can't.

Thanks for all the input guys. I think I am going to go with the freak, is there a difference in accuaracy between the freak and AA fronts?

Nope, no difference at all.
