They are excellent for their price. But the downside to them is that even with a motorized hopper they chop cheap paint. I was using 32 degrees competition paint and it was choping. My friends was doing it too with his A-5. Other than that they are sweet for their price. ------------- TIPPMANN 98 CUSTOM 14" Progressive barrel 32* Black gel grips BT-16 Double trigger Pen Spring Mod X-core Expansion Chamber Vertical Adapter |

Meh they're not that great. I had a SP progressive on my Impy and it was nothing to brag about. It had ok accuracy even with a good paint to barrel bore match. There are better barrels out there. -------------

I have a friend who has one of these, i use the J&J Ceramic Barrel.
The only difference i've seen between the 2 is my barrel is quieter, and if i do break a ball, because of the teflon coating inside the ceramic barrel, i just have to fire another round and it cleans itself out, my buddy has to squeegee his marker. Plus my barrel was about $10 cheaper. -------------
