It's hard for me to compare backspin barrel's and NON-backspin barrels, seeing as they both are made to perform better in different aspects.  Personally I love the backspin and would sacrifice a little bit of accuracy for the awesome range.  Although depends where/how you play.

i used to play with the flatline.  I liked it until there was any wid.  The wind+backspin=balls flying everywhere but where you aim.  That said I finally got sick of being inaccurate so i tried a teammates extra J&J kit.  I bought one the next day.  It was amazingly more accurate.  if i had to choose i would go J&J. and if you were already looking at dropping the cash you may want to check out a kit.  you dont need the one with all the fronts but the different sized backs allow for more accuracy.  The fronts are nice to have to switch up in diff situations and diff fields you may play on.
Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your...

518 votes in like 5 days for the J&J?!  Somebody rigged that.  Wow, this forum needs to check IP's of people who already voted or something, that's way to easy to get around(because there's nothing to get around.)

A good barrel kit with various bore sizes.  Even more important if you're shooting a gas hog.
 
I seriously doubt the mods feel that this poll is worth checking 500+ I.P's and then adjusting the data.

One of my teammates dropped his flatline for a jj a few weeks ago. Hes running an A-5, and loves the accuracy. After installing the apex, I was shocked at what the difference would make from the stock barrel. One thing i've noticed though, no matter what extra distance the apex gives me, the balls wont break after so far. They just mostly bounce. At the lord of the flies event, ill run jj
