What barrel??

[TheMuRph1018]

Which barrel should I get?

[Mad Ogre]

Depends on the type of paint you like... doesnt it?
You like small bore?
Take a look at the Autospirit.

[TheMuRph1018]

Does anybody think the titanium boomstick is better than the ironman boomy or is it just a lighter version?

[Mad Ogre]

Some lighter - and a lot more spendy.
Titanium aint all that... If a paintball marker maker wants to dazzle me with titanium - make the whole reciever out of titanium.
(Not just colored a grey and called it "Titanium")

Myself I just got a Barrel from Palmers for my auto mag.

I would say that smart parts All American are very accurate and quite and that they are even quieter then a boom stick but they do not look as good as boomstick

[theomacy]

if you are lookin for accuracy and paint/bore match go wit the freak

[FOGO]

Why do you want to spend so much for a barrel? Because it's pretty? because everyone have one? because they say is good?
Don't!

Try to understand that all barrels are equal!
First of all, don't trust in any barrel that advertise is the most accurate!
Some of "good" barrels don't have quality.
You must believe in the best barrel makers, like Lapco, CP or Equation, they have precision in the bore size!

BTW I don't believe on Freak System, it's a too short barrel with a long muzzle break (it's a stepped barrel)

I would go with the Dye SS. In price it is between the boomie and the Ceramic (i think) and its performance is also in between IMO. Its better than a ceramic (great barrel tho) but a touch under a boomstick (cuz the boomer is a 2 peice). But if you want a boomie for less get a J&J 2 peice. Interchangeable tips ($20 apeice) and same materials as the DYE make it a great barrel for a lot less. If you live in TN go to hollow buzzard paintball they have em for $60 but they are backordered for now (im first in line when they come!!).

I have to disagree, my friend has a Dye SS...and for some reason, it breaks a lot of paint. My ceramic hasn't broken one ball yet. Maybe it's something internally, but my ceramic seems to work better then the Stainless.

1. buy a freak system
2. If you don't want to spend that kind of money but a 32 degrees terminator or a taso eliminator (they are the same barrel just different materials) I have shot a lot of barrels and these are by far the best ever accurate and quiet and cheap. The terminator is only 36.88 on http://www.888paintball.com. these are what i had before i got the freak and when i bought them i sold off all my other barrels cause the $37 term outshot every barrel i had.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that I don't know anything about paint barrel matches. So are you saying that Marbs, Premiums, Midnight, and All Stars wouldn't work? Because, last time I checked the Stainless was a medium bore barrel, and most of the paint there is medium bore.
