this wasn't in a sticky (i think) so now it can be...

Ok, I checked all of the stickies and searched but I coudn't find a thread about an Xcel versus a J&J Ceramic. Unless the Xcel and Dye Stainless are about the same... So which is better a Ceramic or an Xcel?

[CoolT]

I say Ceramic just because the Xcel has a large bore. Xcel is a good barrel but large bore paint is usually the least used.

i've shot an xcel and loved it but has anybody tried a ceramic? my friend with 98 c says it's junk but lots of people say its good...
