Ok, i play woodsball and i like to be sneaky. I only want to spend around $70 or less so that limits it some. I live in the NW so something that works well when its slightly damp. I have an empire twisted which works well but when it gets wet at all it spirals and flies in all directions ps: Length doesn't matter but let me know what length you suggest w/ your vote. |

a UL on a tippy is overkill, and buddy their close to $100 (ppl over rate dye stuff too much ) , the bigshot is like $54 for the bead blasted one and it works great |

You people that say Bigshots are better than all the others for the money are wrong. Have you used anything else in comparison to the Bigshot? I own the J&J Ceramic and a Bigshot and I can say the Ceramic is a lot better than the Bigshot and it costs 20 bucks less. It's just as accurate if you use a good barrel match paint. It's A LOT quieter. The Bigshot is just as loud as shooting the gun with no barrel. The Ceramic is self-cleaning somewhat. No need to carry a squeegee with you everywhere now. And the Ceramic is 33 dollars compared to the Bigshot's 55. Definately get a Ceramic. Best bang for way over it's, umm..., buck. |

Just what I was going to say Boydster. The J&J ceramic is by far the best buy.

Many paintball vetrans will agree, that if you cannot win with the stock barrel, a new barrel no matter the price or technology will help you. Practice more, spend your money on paint. It will make you a better player. |

I hate it how people who own bigshots say the bigshot is the best barrel in the world. Unless you have something to compare it to, you shouldn't say that it is. And it's not btw. I agree with ItalionoGuy04 about the 12 inches but not the Bigshot. 12 inches will get the best possible accuracy and use less gas. 14, 16, etcetera will be just as accurate as a 12 so stay in the low numbers to keep a tight set up. People say a paintball needs 8 inches to accelerate and 4 to stabilize so 12 is the minimum. |
