u could buy a stiffi, but i wouldnt suggest wasting money on a barrel on a marker like yours. for that gun a cp 1 piece is an excellent choice. the j&j ceramic and cp barrels r different, because u had bad experience with one doesnt mean the other is going to be the same. the cp is best for the money, and pretty accurate IMO. (yes, i do own one). if u really want, a 2 piece is a good one also.

I was looking into the stiffi, and i still think its a good possibility, anyways have you heard anything about the matchstik? is that better or equal to stiffi?

never used a matchstick, but if u r willing to spend the money on the stiffi go ahead.

you think its worth it? is it dead on accurate and fairly quiet. I already know 1 plus is the carbon fibre construction.
also what bore size??

They can be bought in different bore sizes and are advertiesed (sp?) as one of the most quiet barrels on the market.
(Has any one else noticed these multiple I have gun A and want good barrel but no more than 200 to spend on it?)

Want something dead on accuarte? I'd recommend a .22 calibre rifle. It's a paintball gun, they're inherently inaccurate. I have a CP 1 piece, it's great and I haven't seen anything from a higher end barrel that has impressed me enough to think the higher priced barrels are that much better. Get whatever makes you feel good, if possible borrow a barrel from any of your friends that have spyders and try theirs out.

I went paintballing today, same friends with teardrop and the ceramic. I thought i'd try them out again. overall i though my stock barrel was the best with the ceramic, i dont know what it was but it was terribly inaccurate like there was a big dent in the barrel (although there wasn't) and i tried the teardrop. I cant say anything bad cause i know the velocity seemed much higher cause the paintball was flying in circles when it came out of the barrel.
when my friends tried my barrel it was bad on a spyder fenix shooting draxxus midnight it broke every time he shot somewhere (with teardrop it was fine) and then on the goose, the thing wouldn't shoot
anyways it was weird but if you really thing the cp 1 peice will work, ill try it out. if it doesn't work out for me i know a friend who could use one until then thanks for your help.

when i bought my cyborg it comes with a match stick this is one of the best barrels i have ever used. and it cheap for a kit. it light, shoots darts, and it is very quiet.

the matchstick is very similar to a CP 2 piece. Don't hesitate to get it.
Look around a few sites have the CP 1 piece for $40-$45. I would recommend criticalpaintball.
