J&J ceramic

Is the J&J ceramic barrel a good barrel upgrade to replace the stock barrel on my model 98 tippmann.

Indefinatly

Accuracy is great
it is super quiet
and it cleans itself out if for some reason you do chop a ball
Oh and for its price it is a steal

any new 98 barrel is designed to fit in the 98 and 98c. the two guns do have different threads, but the newer barrels will fit both.

Yeah, great barrels, you should get one.  I don't know why people keep saying to get a Lapco Bigshot over the Ceramic though, when the Bigshot has no definate advantages over the Ceramic.  

i dont want to tell you to get anything you dont want but flatlines are really good for woodsball also like u said the ceramic is good and bigshot. if you want to spend more money evil pipe kits are dope.

I own both the bigshot and the ceramic. Both are cheap and accurate but I think the bigshot is just a little more accurate than the ceramic. It's not a huge difference but it's enough for me to prefer the bigshot. For example, let's say the bigshot lands 8 out of 10 on target in a given situation, the ceramic would probably land 7 out of 10. Not a huge difference but since I have both and can use whichever I want, I go for the bigshot. However, I'm not in tears if I have to use the ceramic, I still have great results with it. I actually use the ceramic on my SL-68II with a low power scope when I'm messing around doing target practice and it works pretty good. Sometimes it shoots dead on target and other times it's just a little off but it's generally pretty close to what I'm aiming for. Most other barrels are not much better but are significantly more expensive so I would recommend sticking to one of these two but this is your gun and your money so you make the call.

Everyone of my guns now use a J&J

Somebody is exaggerating.  Nothing under $100 is better than an all american and nothing under $60 is better than a ceramic.  Ceramics are $34 of actionvillage.com and worth their weight in nitro.[not quite sure I understand that one].  But anyway the ceramic is the best bang for the $ by far.  If you change your mind and want something else for under $50 go teardrop, not bigshot.  I'd never replace the all american on my shocker or the ceramic on my brother's E-99.

Oh yeah: I assume you are shooting a tipp. right? R/t is the best woodsball firepower upgrade available, mine rips w/ a little @ home mod.
