Above^^ Lapco Bigshot: A very good barrel that is well priced. (50$ or so) Revvy 12v: A motorized hopper made by Viewloader. Popular. ( Prices vary) RVA: Rear velocity adjuster. Look below. Rocket Cock: Look below. PMI Perfect Drop: A drop forward made by PMI. JT Slammer: Look below. If you are going to get HPA, don't get a 45/3000 (unless you have an LPK). It won't give you enough shots per fill. Get a 68/4500. With all due respect, Bomber Brigade, I could get about half of what you can get off of a tank that size. So, I'm not wrong if I am relating the shot capacity of the 45/3000 to my gun. Maybe a 98C could get more than my A-5; I dunno. But I don't think that my statement above is "wrong". |

I would say if you want a good barrel for woodsball, go for a Flatline. even though I don't like them, they preform well in the "bush". With the extra $60-70, I would look into a 12volt Revvy hopper, and an expansion chamber to break up the CO2 or a Rocket Cock II. Good luck! ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.)

Save up a wee bit more and get a flatline barrel. This is the best barrel you can ever buy for woodsball because it is the only barrel that increases your range. You should also look into buying HPA. HPA is used instead of c02. It gives more consistancy between shots meaning that the paintball are also travelling at closer speeds which in turn gives you greater accuracy. It also lets you fire at faster rates without freezing your marker up. And if you play in the winter it works alot better than c02 does in the cold because temperature dosnt effect it. Also look into getting a motorized loader if you dont have one like the 12V revvy or the Ricochet Ak. -------------

Thanks for all of the advise fellas... One more thing i ask of you...
Can you tell me what an expansion chamber is??? Sorry i am not a person to know these things ------------- _____________________________ You Cant Wipe Welts!!! |

an expansion chamber gives more room for c02 to expand, allowing it to
becomre more of a gas than liquid when it is let into your
barrel. an expansion chamber with more stages is better, and only
a few more dollars. and i would suggest a J&J ceramic, it is
much quieter
than the bigshot and for the same price, also lighter.
