External rifled holes are standard to obtain pin-point accuracy and quiet shooting without sacrificing air efficiency. |

I have used some weekend warroirs in this barrel and they shot pretty good.
but the best paint the I have ever shot throught this was RPS Allstar now that paint shot good out of this barrel.
But if you are looking for some cheap paint that shot good was the PMI PREMIUM they shot good and didn't cost much at all. |

| Review: |
I bought this barrel because I read that it was light and could handle almost any paintball due to its large bore size. I have tried Zap Primer, Great American and Nelson Hot Spot through it and they all worked great, although I think it is really a medium bore barrel--the 32 Degrees Ice Cold seems like it's an even larger bore.. I like Great American paint best for three reasons: 1. small diameter fits almost any barrel, 2. well packed for reduced breakage risk in shipping (I order them on line from Action Village -- free shipping over $100), and 3. fairly thick paint for good visibility on breaks and tougher to wipe.
This barrel is medium quiet, very accurate, great looking and super light. For $40 from ActionVillage, you won't be disappointed. A real bargain that will improve your game 100%. Finish on barrel is high gloss black; seems very durable. I wiped muddy goop off of it several times yesterday and never scratched it. The Zero Gravity has turned my black Spyder Imagine into a marker without mercy. Get it. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Get the ACI Zero Gravity one-piece barrel and you won't be sorry. It's a bargain at $40 from Action Village, and if you order a couple of boxes of paint with it, you'll get free shipping ($100+). I use the 13.5 inch model on my Spyder Imagine and it's an awesome sniper weapon. Accurate, light, great looking (it's gloss black finish perfectly matches the black Imagine, FYI), and large enough to handle almost any paint. I buy the budget paints on line, which tend to be larger diameter. So, the Zero Gravity is saving me money by letting me effectively shoot cheap paint. Get it. |

| Marker Setup: |
JT Excellerator 4.0 w/ ACI Zero Gravity Barrel, VL 200, 9oz. CO2, 32 Degress custom Spyder Springs. |
|
Recommended
Paintballs: |
I used Winchester and they worked pretty good. |
|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
-Its VERY Light-weight
-Looks good with my 4.0
-a LOT (stress the LOT) more accurate than my stock barrel and a lot longer range.
-Not loud at all (significantly reduced the sound of my marker) |
|
| Weaknesses: |
Not much is bad about it except that paint is hard to clean out of the porting and mine had some rough edges around the muzzle that i had to sand down. |
|
| Conclusion: |
This is a great barrel for the price and I'd recommend it for anyone who has a Spyder-threaded marker. The first game I used it I noticed a great improvement (4-5 eliminations a game compared to 1 or 2) and I was even able to single handedly hold off about 4 people who had me pinned behind a tree (I shot all of them, even the last one who tried to bunker me)
I think it's a worthwhile investment and if you have the money you should definately consider it. |

Recommended
Paintballs: |
pmi premium works like a charm as well as marbs and 32* stuff |
|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
light, highly accurate, doesn't break a lot of paint. the barrel quiets the gun (who cares?) i think i'll chop down my stock barrel to like 5" and scare the pants off some poor first timer. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
if paint breaks in it, the porting will just clog up and destroy your accuracy, but this isnt a problem with good quality paintballs. |
|
| Conclusion: |
it is one of the best mid-priced barrel out there, according to me and everyone i have talked to about it. the only thing that might be better at this price would be a cp barrel. i love this barrel and it looks awesome on my rebel. |

Anything small too medium bore. pmi premium, marblizer etc. |
|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
Excellent barrel for the price. I bought this barrel for my bro for his b-day and i was amazed at its accuracy. The marker i tested this one was a rather well modded spyder and it performed flawlessly. At 75 feet the groupings were within 8 inches. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
Large muzzle break makes it difficult to clean without a sqeegie, you can just shoot air through it. As long as you match your paint well it is a great barrel. |
|
| Conclusion: |
If youve got a spyder or spyder clone this is one of the best barrels on the market for it. |

| Review: |
Wow, this is an excellent barrel! I would put this right up with a CP 1-piece! The accuracy is very good. On par with the CP and very good for the short length. This barrel is by far the lightest I have used. It barely weighs a thing! It almost feels like paper because it's so light. The ACI is also quiet. The awesome ports look great and do their job well. The price is good. Affordability is definitely an attribute. Again, the ports make the Zero Gravity look great. It never breaks ball and performs just as well as a CP. Buy this now! |
|
| Conclusion: |
Excellent, excellent, excellent. That's all there is to say. The Zero Gravity is highly recommended. |

Only weakness would be if you like smaller diameter balls. |

| Review: |
This is a great barrel, i have never killed so many people in speedball and the woods than with this barrel. it's rather quiet and i have around a 16 inch pattern at around 100 feet. aci has some good products, i reccommend this one. it has a bigger bore so alot of smaller balls roll right down the barrel so you need larger balls. |
|
| Conclusion: |
if you can find it for under $50 , i would pick this up-you will not be dissapointed, it has a big bore so you need bigger balls, but that's not all bad because it shoots CORE and other cheap balls very effectively. i recommend this barrel |

| Review: |
This is an excellent barrel which will upgrade, no matter what, any gun that is uses it. It improves, first, accuracy most of all which is the prime attribute when it comes to barrels. It also makes your gun very quiet which is nice in any situation. The price for the barrel is very affordable. The barrel is also light is a perfect size. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Overall, this is a perfect barrel suitable for anything. No matter what plan to get this barrel as an upgrade you will only benefit from it. |

| Review: |
this is one of the first upgraded barrels that was available forteh tippman carbine and actually the one I bought was for an F4, as you know the factory barrel sucks wind! this barrelis deadly ccurate at medium to long ranges, I was able to put 10 out of 10 shots into a 12 " target at 90' while shooting at 285 FPS and a little tighter pattern at 280.
This is a wonderful barrel for teh price.
I tried other barrels in this price range but none compare for this particular gun setup
I now have a procarbine that i am just setting up and with it I have ordered a new sub zero one piece and a J&J ceramic, the new hot barrel I will let you know what I find out
I would highly recomend this barrel for the budget concious buyer, one of the best on the market, deadly accurate at the right FPS settings, and very good distance, this is a keeper |
