Best Barrel Lenght (Woodsball)

never get a barrel longer than 14" for anything.

Keep the barrel short the longer the barrel the harder to bring it to bear on a target in thick brush.

definately a 12, cuz you dont wana hit it on trees n stuff

I like the 8" A-5 Bigshot, but anything over 14" is too long.

Ya anything that is 14" is just the same or worse.

I highly recommend a 12" or 14" and no longer. A 16" barrel will most likely just annoy you and cause you to bump it into things. A 12" barrel will be just as accurate as a 14" so just pick the length you prefer. My friend has the 8" bigshot and he loves it. According to him (I haven't used it myself yet) it's just as accurate as the 12" which he also has. I don't know if that is true for other small barrels though so I will only suggest that one. I think you should go with a 12" though. It seems to me that 12" is the perfect length for my style of play since I tend to do a lot of moving around. You say you don't move much which is alright but in time that can (and probably will) change. Should that happen, you might find yourself looking to make your gun more compact and a huge barrel will quickly start to bug you. Since the added length has no real performance benefits, it makes more sense to get a 12" or 14" so that you don't need to worry about changing your barrel if you change your play style a little. It's your call though, you know yourself better than I do.

why are you scared to get hit if so your in the wrong sport bud^^^^

actually im not scaryed to get hit buddy it happens that i find snipering and assassination tactices the most sucessful. Also when paintball orginal started everyone used sniper tactics. 1 paintball was fired every mintue even with teams 20 on 20

What ever

Well, i like the 14'' barrels because they can be super accurate.  The con with those is you might bump it into trees or something.  I have played woodsball with my 14'' progressive rifled barrel.  I have not ever bumped it into a tree.  The barell still looks out-of-the-box new.  It looks new because ive coated it with a thin film of rain-x, baby oil, and wd-40.  This makes a very thin film that will protect against some abrasions.  My advice is:  get a 14''.
