I have an A5
w/RT. I want a barrel that is good from long range but can go full auto
for speedball without getting paint stuck in the barrel (not long) what
is a good choice? Ive been looking at the J&J Full Tilt and the 32*
night stick... but which length? or other barrels? thanks |

| A lapco bigshot is accurate. I would get a 10" or 12" |

And issuing that, the only barrel that adds ranges is the flatline and I don't think you really want the flatline for speedball soooo...you are out of luck on the range. |

| Well that would be the bigshot then. Or you could go out and buy a boomstick for 120 bucks. A full-tilt is a fairly good barrel though. |

Its impossible to fire fast enough to have more than one ball traveling through the barrel at any one time. -------------

| Paint won't get stuck in the barrel if your paint matches with your barrel size. Any of the above solutions are good. If you have the money, you might consider Freak or Boomstick. |

| SpeedBall and woodsball are too totally different games like someone said above you wont wanna use a Flatline in speedball and you wont wanna use a small, quick barrel in woodsball. Mabyee buy two different barrels to switch for each game. |

I had a Night Stick on my first 98. Makes your paintballs whistle as they pass your opponents heads for a nice psyche effect. Pretty accurate too, I was playing speedball and saw a little glimmer from above a bunker and I thought it looked like a fan toggle. Took one shot at it and turned my buddys fan on! He was really mad I eleminated him with a shot like that Great barrel for 20 bucks. |

Lapco Bigshot, Smart Parts Tear Drop, Smart Parts All American (my baby  ), or if you got the money, a freak or boomstick would work great.-------------

Just get a J&J 12in. It's a good intermediate, not a 21in woodsball
pole and its not a stubby speedball barrel. (yes I know a 21in isn't
practical)

From all the articles I've read it was 6-7, which would make sense to why lapco made theirs 8". ------------- A-5 E-Grip JCS Dual Trigger DOP X-CORE 8 stage x-chamber Lapco Bigshot 14" Beadblasted Optional setup: R/T Dead on Blade trigger |

And you wouldn't want serious accuracy in speedball? Of course, like stated above, length has nothing to do with accuracy. Any barrel that performs well for speedball will perform well for woodsball. -------------
