i just bought a promaster, and i was wondering if i should get a different barrel first or a new feed neck.

yeah, i just got one too and was wondering if it would be a good investment to get a new barrel or barrel kit.

if your hopper fits in the stock feedneck without sanding, then i'd say get a new barrel first. I personally wouldnt get a barrel kit. you can spend $20-$60 on a single barrel that shoots great, a barrel kit IMO isnt needed or worth the money unless you just have a ton of money to spend. check out CP, macdev, J&J, and Powerlyte barrels. actually, powerlyte speedline 2-pieces are selling for incredibly low prices right now and they are fantastic barrels, check out the powerlyte website. used CP's are also very good deals and are some of the best ive used.

It would totaly be woth it to get a barrel kit... Seriosly it helps more than you think if the paintball matches the bore to your barrel you will get much better accuracy and a lil better efficance also

So if you have a halo(or loadrer that fits feedneck well) get a barrel kit

The stock barrel is pretty darn good, quiet, accurate and most suprisingly shoots thru breaks very nicely. The only reason in my mind to change it would be for the "bling" factor or if you wanted a longer barrel. It sux when you have a big money barrel and you can not get it to work as well as the stocker. Thats why my Dye barrel stays on my Cocker.

IMO the only reason to get a new feedneck would be if you wanted lower profile, had extra money and everything else was upped, or your hopper doesn't fit or moves around so much that you can't play with it. I say get a barrel because it will enhance performance more than a feedneck.
