Hi i have an a5 and need a barrel with a very low report yet still very accurate i play bushball mainly and in wet but not pouring down cats and dog's sought of weather...

my friends and i have decided to play 5 on 1 thats why i ask,i dont, dare i say the forbidden S word (sniper) and yet i love  the 1 shot hit's I'm more of a half dagger half saber sought of player if that is indeed the correct term for how i play so a barrel that's not to loud or long any feed back would be great thank's

The J&J Ceramic 14 inch is quite and accurate, but you wont find a barrel that will totally silence your shot. I have one for my A-5 and love it.
Oh and if you break a ball it will clean itself after a few shots.

Do you have any other upgrades?

apex is nice, but costs alot more, try a whisper barrel from 32 degrees, 14in is ideal for the a5

I would go with a 12-14" JJ Ceramic.
