    Posted: 05 September 2004 at 4:09pm
well ive been playing for a little over a year now and its time to get a new gun.  im leaning towards a tippmann 98 sniper because i always play woodsball adn i found it for  $300.  im kinda tight for cash (300-400 dollars), is this the best choice?

Eh, I geuss if you play Woodsball there isn't a better gun. Maybe the A-5 with Flatline. I here the A-5s Flatline is better, but IDK.
yay do i win?

Expansion chamber isn't needed if you don't have an RT that is for sure but if you don't/can't get Nitro it makes it better for winter play, and when you shoot fast.

Unless you are playing in the cold I don't think you will shoot fast enough with just the stock trigger setup to freeze the gun. At least to justify spending $60 +.

oh now i get what you mean. but i still think the accuracy gaind from an x-chamber is reason enough to buy it.

an expansion chamber adds both....it stops all the liquid co2 from going into your gun....no liquid, no shot spikes more consistant. Which will make it more accurate
