Well this is going to go against what everyone else has said but i think they suck. I read a review of them in Paintball Games International Magazine and they said they sucked. Then I saw one being used on the field and it did suck.

Now you said how long your field is which makes me think you think this barrel will give you more distance. It is important for you to remember that the only barrel that will get you more distance is the flatline.

What I keep telling people, it really dosen't matter what barrel you have soemtimes.  You can have nearly as good accuracy as some of the higher end barrels with your nitestik if you use the right paint in it and have a relaible air source.

Someone knows what they are talking about.

There isn't that big of a difference between all barrels (excluding kits). For the most part, they are all microhoned on the inside, and the only real difference is the porting.

I would say good paint = more important than good barrel.

^^^ I dunno about that.

I've tested the All American and the Big Shot with paint that matched both barrels. The All American was noticably better.

I recommend the All American to anybody with a Tippmann. For some reason they are an awesome barrel on a 98. I'd also recommend the Boomstick, but they aren't worth the extra $30.

Well, you are paying only like $30 for the nitestik, 50 for the bigshot and 70 for the AA, you are going to see a difference, just is it worth the extra 40?
