Just a quick informative post here. I bought a 12" teardrop for my A-5. at first i was hving some serious problems but I had way too much velocity going. I took the time to dial in the speeds properly and my gun now shoots with a 1-4 inch accuracy from 100 feet with CO2. I'm really impressed with it. It's just tricky finding the right velocity.

1-2? b/s flag. even the guy who did the big barrel review will give u the bs flag. you'll never get 1-2 inches from 100 feet with any barrel. fire 10 shots and tell me the greates distance between 2.

anyways, i have my velocity at 285 right now. the teardrop may not be the king of barrels but for a good price you get more than you paid for. to further stiffen the barrel during game I have the receiver glued to the gun and locked in via poly urethane (because it was always loose before)

1. posts acumulate fast. dont look at total posts, look at posts per day. some of us ahve been ehre a long time

2. whether you get shot with an angel, or a brass eagle, it still feels the same.
