I was at walmart the other day and i was walking in the sport section and i saw the Pathfinder barrle for around $30 . I also herd from a freind that J&J barrles were good and only $22. they were both 16' and i think ceramic. which one is better in preformance and price.

Ive never heard of the Pathfinder before.  I would stick with the proved performance in the JJ.

If my opinion counts for anything I have a friend who has one of those it is for his spyder it works well it preforms just as well as my other friends JJ he also uses it with a spyder his Pathfinder is only 14 inches though.

J&J FTW.  J&J makes an awesome product but 16" is pretty long.  Any reason for that size or is it just the one you happened to see?  I reccomend the 10-14" range.  That 2" extra is suprisingly a pain and can get in the way.  Thats just my opinion though.
Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your...

No, anything over 14 is quieter.

I got one for my Ion, but the funny thing is, the stock barrel performed better.  Probably needed a better paint to bore match, but I always use medium bore paint which should have worked fine.
