flatline barrel.....

[PBSouLjAh]

i gotta question...people have been sayin flatlines have great range but not very accurate. does that mean its not accurate at long ranges(i.e 100') or dat its not even accurate at like 30 feet?

it means that it gets less accurate at extremely long distances. The paintball, when shot out of the flatline tends to get picked up by the wind after long distances, but overall it has very good accuracy. But i wouldn't get it because you're getting that cocker,a nd you miht as well use that 120 for the cocker instead of hte M98

with a good paint/ barrel match its fairly accurate at medium distance, Maybe slightly less accurate than a good barrel on it, but still better than the stock M98 barrel. At distances beyond what a normal barrel can shoot is where you really start to notice accuracy problems, at the furthest extremes of its range you may have a diff of 6 feet between where the balls hit, BUT about 7/10 will hit within probably 2 feet of each other. This would be considered unbearable for a normal barrel but you have to remember that your shooting at distances around 100 feet further than possible with any other barrel. At 30' a well installed flatline with good paint will still be more accurate than an out of the box stock barrel, ie. not hand polished.

The flatline barrel to me is not worth it b/c if you use that range to hit someone then the person will be able to move by the time the paintball reaches them.

That is a bunch of BS. You have not used it that much I see.
