The only barrel besides the Flatline that adds distance if the Apex. If you're not into that either, then you're going to have to settle for a regular barrel. I suggest the All American.

Hmm... the J&J Ceramic and the Lapco Bigshot are both pretty good.
NASA and the Americans spent millions of dollars and hundreds of hours to develop a pen that would write in space.....The Russians used a pencil.

Another vote for the All American. Although it is a higer priced barre.

Lapco bigshot is perfect.

Its pretty cheap $50 and more accurate than the J&J

Whoa man, calm down. And yes, there are barrels out ther that increase distance. Those would be the Flatline and Apex. Any other barrel like you said won't add distance, only accuracy.

Ceramic or Bigshot. I love my Boomstick but its to expensive for an average player. No barrels will add distance like the flatline though.

Is it true that the J&J Ceramic doesn't come with an O-ring on it? And if it doesn't what size O-ring do i need...or can i just take the one off my stock barrel (the custom pro stock barrel that is) and put it on there?

I have a 14" All-American and I love it!! The Apex looks pretty cool, but for woodsball I don't think it makes sense... if you try curve around a tree, most likely the paintball will hit a different one along the way. The j&j is good because it cleans itself.

J&J for $30 @ ActionVillage.com. I have one and it works flawlessly using Evil paintballs. I didn't get an o-ring with mine, so I put the one from the stock barrel on there. Of course, I didn't get mine from AV b/c someone else had it cheaper. I ended up paying more in the end (vey bad dealer). The only other barrel I would suggest would be a stiffi, but I haven't tried one yet, looking to get one before year end though.
