i would say the 14" J+J Ceramic. or the 12" would probably be better to get around bunkers. i heard that the lapco bigshot isnt any better than the J+J but it's $20 more. i say J+J all the way.

J&J is a good barrel for the price, and it is also better if you still use C02 because of the material it is made out of. but on the other hand I like my 14" Evil driver barrel

If you have an A5 I would get the flat line fore both types of game.
But second best is the big shot it is slightly more accurate but the J&J cleans its self ------------- now you see me now I'm behind you |

I can't speak for speedball because I haven't played much. The flatline is excellent for woodsball. Four of the top players in our woods are using flatlines. Two A5, Two 98C. ------------- Jim Paley |

| I have an Empire Twister 14" on a 98C. Its great for woods and sniping and almost short enough for speed. Only draw backs are rifling in barrel makes swab a must. Tipps are a little long for really aggessive Mid and Front speedball. If you end up playing both you'll probably end up with guns for both. A backup gun has saved my butt, and my friends countless times. |

Both are good for the price. But if we're talking best, I'd say Stiffi, Boomstick or UL. I say get a FL for woods and a BigShot or JJ for speed. ------------- A-5, Flatline, Palmer Reg, JCS MP Folding stock w/RVA, ASR-1 sight rail, Remote. |

The flatline if you play mostly woods ball and I would get a boomstick if you play mostly speedball On the other hand if you want to pay less that $100 I would just keep your J&J |

Just keep your J&J Ceramic, that's so far perfect for speedball, or
even buy one of their 2 piece barrels, because the Boomstick is just
WAY overpriced for what it is.

Bigshot for everything. Speedball will bring a pure accuracy in the close quarters situations. Woodsball will bring unique distance and accuracy to your game. The Flatline is only good at long ranges. I've gone close quarters against one of them and I never got hit. To everybody's surprise, the sniper got sniped. ------------- Gun Info: 98C E-Pro ACT 14in Stiffi Offset Mount RedDot 45mmScope Shocktech ShockFlyBolt RocketCock II Cyclone Feed Dog Leg All TechT Cyclone upgrades 4 guns and counting!! |
