ok i see all these barrels being sold that go from 12" to 16" being sold for the same price does the length even help or effect the accuracy of the ball if the barrel is longer?

12"-14" is best. 16" works, anything higher and you waste air.

No, barrel length does not affect accuracy.(if it is greater than 4-7.5" I believe)

Only outside the range of 8"-16". Within that range, all barrels will perform pretty much the same.
