i cannt name the range because that would be determined by your markers velocity. as for the barrel i would suggest a lapco bigshot. alot of guys here like them. i've used it for the past 2 years and im really happy with it. good range, very accurate, light weight and stylish. ------------- "The key in war isn't to die for your country, but to make the othe bastard die for his". |

| i didnt mean range i meant effective range (highest range it will be accurate at) and what do you think of the all american does it parallel the lapco? |

| how much are you planning on spending because they do make some rather nice 2 piece barrels that are highly accurate (i dunno the effective range off hand) |

All American>Bigshot, IMO. The AA is one of the best barrels I've ever used. |

I love my AA. Even better is the Freak back with the AA front. That way you can get a perfect adjustment to paint size. Shoots darts.

Ok, i went paintballing in the woods today, and lemme say.. that flatline is dam impressive. Id say its by far the best barrel you can ever buy. It doesnt even start to drop for like frigen 200 feet. I'm definetly gonna buy one as soon as i can find a good deal. ------------- DjB |

Well, since how much you are spending on that, i would recomend not getting that, and getting a flatline. It will be alot better than an 18", 16" is the highest you would want to go, but 14" is the best, you only get push for about 8" and the rest of it is to focus it to make it more stable, after 14" it starts losing velocity. ------------- http://img100.imageshack.us/my.php?image=paintballequipment0ji.jpg">
