    Posted: 27 December 2006 at 12:06am
I am getting a j&j barrel and am wondering which paint to use in it. I have been using big balls in my 98 pro and they shoot decent, can I use these in the j&j or will i get alot of barrel breaks. I always hear about paint to barrel match, and dont know how to find out what paint to use in specific barrels. Thanks

a J&J will tolerate basically any sized paint. Big Ball will work fine. What does your field offer?

Yeah, any paint will work in it. Sometimes the paint wont be as accurate as other paint but they will still work.

Just to avoid confusion... the chart lists the Flatline as a large bore barrel. This is true.

However, as Snake has stated... treat it as if it were a small-bore barrel. Small bore paint works best. Reason for the bore-ball difference benefit in this case is the necessity of space to create the backspin.
