What's a good barrel for both close range and medium distances?
I play at Skyline paintball (crazy cool place) and it's a mix of woodsball and speedball. So I need something short and easy to move around small places (like in the town field) but something that will also still be fairly quiet and accurate. Anybody? |

All barrels will be the same range, except for the Flatline and the Apex, this being said if you want a little longer range go with one or the other. Other wise I would suggest a decent barrel kit like a freak if money isn't a big problem for you. If it is the I would suggest a lapco bigshot or a J&J ceramics in no more than 16 inches.

Some of the best barrels on the market and my personal choice. You may also want to check out a kit that has more than 1 front. They can be good if you want a shorter barrel and a longer barrel for different types of play. Edited by thejudge - 19 March 2008 at 1:40am |

No no noooo I know all about the physics involved in barrels and paintballs and all that stuff. What I mean is is there a barrel that isn't huge but still has a decent shot? And when I say "isn't huge" I mean 12" or under. I need something that can move around in a tight space but can still keep a good shot grouping.
12 " or under. lol |

J & J Performance: Single barrel or kits. The barrels don't move around by themselves. I'm afraid you'll have to do that yourself.
