i love my flatline, but i got alot of other stuff installed to help her out. it took more money to get my flatty working accurately. which it does now. but not before i got the RVA, moded my FVA, a palmer and a remote.

but i can hit what i want at range so its worth it to me

the truth is its not worth the 100 bucks its more of a 40 barrel if u compare price to quality thas the only bad thing about the flatline its overpriced to make it look better than it actually is. but if ur rich the Flatline is definetly ur barrel if u get the upgrades to go along with it to get accuracy and consistency.

The flatline is the greatest barrel to come to woodsball. The extra distance and flat trajectory cannot be beat in the woods. Especially if theres a low canopy.

My flatline works like a charm, you just gotta use good paint,like marbs or anarchy. And you gotta get use to it, the "feel" of the barrel is much different than the regular ones. Give it a few weeks, and you will love it.

What?

NO!

How does a barrel get labeled 'speedballish'??? HOW!?

That said, in my minimal experience with the flatline, it is pretty sweet.

Well, since the members of this forum cannot help you, I have somthing novel for you to try.  Get both a flatline and J&J Ceramic and test them to see which is better for how you play.  Then come back with the results so that others facing the same decision can have facts at their disposal instead of everyones opinion.

I own both of them.  The Flatline gets used.  The J&J sits in the case.  ROF is not affected by the Flatline.  I shoot anything from Eliminator to Marbs, $35 to $80 per case.  No barrel breaks, even with the E-grip maxed out.  The Flatline shoots farther then any other barrel on the market..nothing else comes close.  The J&J is more accurate at 50 feet (and quieter) but at 150 feet the Flatline is much more accurate because the J&J won't shoot that far.
