What barrel do you recommend?

[MotherGoose]

I have the Flatline and im not that impressed. Shall i keep it and get it professionally installed? What is more accurate (don't care that much about noise): the Lapco BigShot, J&J Ceramic or DYE Excel?

[pr0kch0p]

lapco bigshot, but they are impossible to find right now.

[paintballsprings05]

I would like to know which is the best barrel too, I am a sniper and assualt, half and half, so I want killer accuracy, adn something thats not going to get in my way, others say the DYE Boomstick, is this true?

[Q-Ball]

I would keep the flatline and get it professionally installed. If you still don't like it get a Lapco Bigshot.

[I win]

I'm not sure but from what i heard is that J&J And Big Shot are nice.

[alex]

you can get them at iisports.com for 80 bucks.

[Rascal_X5]

I would reccomend a smart parts all american, I have a 14'' and it rocks.

[JDoGG]

keep the flatline, but dont waste money having it professionally installed. do it yourself, its easy. as for the boomstick, dont buy it, save the 105$ and put it towards a Freak. and i had a bigshot also, but wasnt too impressed witht the accuracy.

[spray_and_pray]

i agree with jdogg so much the freak is by far the best barrel i have ever owned or shot save and het that it is great

[em1freak]

i like the bigshot but if you can save the money get the boomstick or even the freak with the insert that suits you best

[BOBO2]

Get rid of the flatline mine has olny caused me problems , get a Boomer.

[JDoGG]

i loved my flatline, when i learned how to use it. use marbs and install it right. youl have no problems. but i've upgraded to a cocker and love that even more

yeah the all american is a really good barrel. its accurate, not too long, quiet, and gives you good range.

[spray_and_pray]

if you do keep the flatline use big ball with it those balls are great for it

[Paint Bulley]

[I-PyThOn-I]

I have a flatline.......i think it sux *** when it is on right! aiming down is retarded so buy ANY straight barrel

[JDoGG]

its all personal preference, try some different ones out if you can. just get a good paint match and you'l be fine.

some helpfull thought's

A paintball does not care what barrel it came from or how slippery the inside of the barrel was after it has left the gun. Accuracy is affected mainly by what happens to the ball AFTER IT HAS LEFT THE GUN. If the ball has paint on it or is dirty, the paint will alter the flight of the ball due to irregularities in the flow of air over the surface of the ball. If wind pushes on the ball, it forces it off course and it won’t go where you thought it would. If the seam is not formed well, or the balls fill is of lightweight nature, the air will not flow evenly over the ball and it will go off course.

Here is a list of possible factors (in no particular order) that will affect your accuracy:

Velocity too high ( over 280 can cause curving)
Paint in the barrel
Dirt in the barrel
Oil in the barrel (after lubing gun)
Dirty paintballs
paintball seconds
Cracked paintball
Uneven fill mixture (old paint)
oversized paintballs
Wind
Humidity
Barrel bore too tight
Bent barrel
