| Review: |
This barrel is one of the, if not the best non barrel kits on the market today.
PROS:
~Awesome Chrome/Black Look.
~Accuracy.
~Comes In Many Sizes To Match The Position You Play On The Field.
~Quality.
~Lighter Than Expected.
~Strength.
~Aluminium can be annodized. Because of the physical properties of aluminium, the front (black) end of this barrel can be annodized to match the color of your marker.
~A little bird told me DYE will be selling a Boomy Kit Soon.
CONS:
~Price. But hey, if you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen.
~Two Piece Design + 'Cocker = Headache. Because of the 'Cockers front block, sometimes it can be difficult to get the chrome end of this barrel off. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
IMO, this is the best barrel you can buy. DYE ROCKS! |

This is a great barrel from dye. I was turned away cause the price, but there are online sites where you can get them for $60. I highly reccomend this barrel to anyone who wants a great barrel that wont fail you. You can get any size back for this barrel, and it is dye. |

| Conclusion: |
I got mine for $60, and it hasnt failed me yet. |

| Review: |
This is a very nice barrel. I got mine for $100, not bad for such a good barrel. I've used this barrel for two full days. Each day lasted about 5 hours and throughout each day I used about 1000 rounds of paint. So, it's had about 2,000 rounds go through it and I only had one ball break. As for accuracy, it was right on and everything shot straight. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
With such a low price tag, you really can't go wrong with this barrel. I'd highly recommend it to anybody looking to upgrade from a stock or even a lower class barrel. |

Flatline and conventional barrels. |

| Marker Setup: |
Tippmann A-5 Response/ Dye Boomstick 16" and classic Tippman 98 Custom |
 |
Recommended Paintballs: |
Super swirls work great. |
 |
 |
 |
 |
| Strengths: |
-Provides great range and keeps ball travel straight.
-Smaller barrel is great for CQB |
 |
| Weaknesses: |
-Crome plating is highly visible. |
 |
| Review: |
The barrel provides nearly identical results to the flatline barrel without the reliability issue of it. Additionally, the barrel without the extension provides a great close range option and is quite accurate and straight-shooting, but it reduces range and increases noise. The full length option is actually quiet. The only problem that I have run into is the visibilty of the crome-plating especially in sunlight. I have had no problems with breaking paintballs. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
Great performance with increased range and accuracy with two combat options by barrel length provide a great setup. However, be aware of the visibility of the crome in woodsball. |

| Review: |
the dye boomstick is simply awesome. this barrel is not much diffrent than the dye ultralite except it is much more weighy and stronger to me it also seems a bit more consistent. This barrel seem to be the most accurate gun to barrel to bolt setup i have ever seen. i my self and a very accurate shooter and with my rat valve at 225 psi i can hit a mountain dew can 20 times ina row at about 50 feet. This is the most accurate barrel ever and is much better than Lapco and the Nazis or i mean smart parts. You willlove this barrel. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
Get it you can get them very cheap on pbnation |

| Review: |
Pros:
~Come's with the "Dye" logo on it, that's the key selling point.
~Very nice design and looks.
~Chrome/Black, will match just about any color of your marker.
~Two Piece, longer tips could be put on and smaller backs can be used.
~When it's clean, very accurate.
~Newb envy, every newb in the nearest 100 miles will be jealous cause you have this barrel and WILL bad mouth both you and your barrel....see reviews under me.
Cons:
~Expensive, the cheapest i found this barrel was for $120. I bought mine for $100 off a friend who sold his Timmy and had no use for this barrel, so i put it on my cocker.
~If u chop paint in this barrel, god help you. The balls will fly in every which direction.
|
 |
| Conclusion: |
If you have to have the best parts for your gun and money does not matter to you, purchase this barrel. The milling on it is very nice and will look excellent on your marker. |

Well, I've seen several stock barrels on guns, and a flatline.
|
 |
| Marker Setup: |
Spyder Imagine
2002 Boomstick :)
more coming soon...when i get money |
 |
Recommended Paintballs: |
i use blue streaks because they fit the barrel perfectly.
For those who dont wanna spend money, go with those (unless there are better ones for less.)
for those who spend alot on them, try whatever fits in the barrel best |
 |
 |
 |
 |
| Strengths: |
Extremely Accurate
Light
Good Company
Quiter than a stock barrel |
 |
| Weaknesses: |
Not a set, so you cant change bore sizes |
 |
| Review: |
I bought my barrel for 105$ It didnt work well at first because i had to much oil in my gun. After completely cleaning it, it started working great. The first time I took it out to play with it (when my gun was working perfectly) it shot like a dream I actually hit people through brush, and they were very far away. I have had no problems with this. I also have a friend that has one and he says it is the best barrel he has ever seen.
My Imagine is stock (besides the barrel) and on a windy day i can hit within a 2 foot radius from about 75 feet away. I can also nail targets even farther away with brush in the way or a small opening to shoot it through...it performs perfectly. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
It is the most accurate barrel available. It is worth every penny. I have seen it against stock barrels, other upgraded ones, and a flatline. This barrel is worth every penny you will spend on it. The nicer your gun, the better this barrel works. Buy it. now. |

 |
| Review: |
the accuacy of this barell compares to none other I have used or played against. at 100 feet I can hit something the size of a tennis ball 9/10 shots. I have made kills at about 70 yards several times. I couldn't do that with my flatline. the lenght of it will sometimes get in the way,thats why I ordered a new tip for it . I cannot think of anything really negitive about this barrel |
 |
| Conclusion: |
even though the price is kinda high I would recomend this barrel to anyone...don't waste your money on a flatline thats not as accurate (it just shoots farther) |

| Review: |
well i have to say this is a good barrel but not what i expected and i still love it but i would say it is overpriced (well i wouldent say it is over price i know it is overprice)
it is a good barrel and an accurate one but i thought it would be better it never chops balls ( i shot 1000 today and didnt chop one) it is a little heavy but only if you cant lift an extra 2 pounds (if you cant go to the gym and work out) it is a quiet barrel also but the freak and AA are alot quieter but not as accurate |
 |
| Conclusion: |
well i love it but i thought it would be better so i give it a 9 but if you have the extra cash get this if you dont get the ultralight or an AA because they are just the same thing but lighter and cheaper |

| Review: |
Was skeptical at first because a friend of mine has a flatline which is suppose to be the barrel to get. I paid more and was kinda nervous about the outcome. I have been using the barrel for about half a year now and am satisfied. However if I had to buy one again, I would shop around a little more to try to get a better price. This barrel runs circles around the flatline. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
Shop around for a good price and then buy buy buy buy buy! |
