apex.(and not just because i have one). also, like sniper44 said, 300fps is
300fps, no matter how you look at it. it works better with smaller, textured shelled balls, because if it's set too high, it'll catch the bigger ones in the end of the barrel(just my experience). also, playing some recreational airball, i've gotten a few outs with the curve feature. only thing: it's short, with very little porting, so it's kinda loud. only bad thing: it's VERY hard to clean in the middle of a game. |

Apex for sure there is not even any comparasion dont get me wrong i am tippmann all the way but the apex is just leaps and bounds above the flatline it is easily just as accurate and has the curve features which work very well

^ i agree, a hooked/sliced ball would be useless in 99.9% of situations. by the time youve got the barrel switched to the right mode, youll probably be shot anyways. |

i find when playing paintball i realy dont have the time to look were my enemy at then look at my barrel and set it so it can shoot around a corner. Because by that time my target has probly adavanced on me and has shoot me or binned me down. Tahts why i wont get an apex I have a flatline and its not perfect i wish it was more acruate. But it gives the range you need me and a buddy held of 15 people guys with 2 flatline sfor 25 mins got 8 outs and most balls shot at us just fell to the ground. get a flatline its werth it

Werks barrels kills that last statement. Other than that, they are the best. |

I'm gonna have to say Apex. I received mine yesterday and I tested it with some cheap paint (Scorch). IMO it is more accurate than my friend's 98 Flatline and goes much further.

Definatly go for the apex...
it's much easier to clean and if dirt get's inside of it, it still has more accuracy than the flatline, and it's less $ and the flatline is just too loud for stealth and suprising them because if you shoot at them and miss they'll definatly know where you are! So by all means the smart paintballer would go towards the apex, and the ones who are really smart would lean towards getting a jj ceramic cuz sure... they're are a little more $ but they will beat any other barrel out there in woodsball,speedball...etc. so if i were you and i had a choice between a apex and flatline... the apex would definatly win my vote |

think normal apex or flatline... but faster... Either will work fine, the e-grip has nothing to do with it. |
