wich barrel is more ACCURATE, and wich one will perform the best with low pressure. I have a gun running at around 350 psi and I use proball paintballs(same size as marbalizers, small). Remember, I need an accurate barrel that is good for low pressure. thanx

Marbs are small - but they are .688 cal. The AutoSpirit is .686 and in this case better suited to El Tigre, All Star, Direct Hit, or Hellfires... paints that are "Very" small.

For Marbs - the J&J is the better choice.

so, what exact bore is the ceramic, .688?

I also hear that the ceramic is more accurate at 14 inch length, is that true?

I don't know, but I don't really like the J&J barrels. I don't think they're very good.

If you use Proball, the AutoSpirit is the way to go. It is the right bore size. Like Ogre said, Marbs are more "medium-small" than "small". If you end up shooting medium bore paint, like Premium, go with the Lapco BigShot.

toxic

The way that a ball bounces around the barrel or drags against the inside of the barrel can have a profound effect on velocity fluctuations. Ball will touch the sides unevenly sometimes and drag will slow the ball down. The longer the barrel is, the more pronounced these fluctuations can be.
For this reason, a shorter barrel will have less velocity fluctuation than a longer one.

I like lapco...little bit loud but that is ok ...accuracy is good IMHO

Amargio1, how does Direct Hit shoot out of your Autospirit? I'm thinking about getting the stainless version.
