Re: Which type of barrel?

I was finally able to use my J&J Edge Elite kit and was blown away by the accuracy! I am in love with my setup now! I even took out a little crap talker with his $1300 angel.

Re: Which type of barrel?

The flatline diameter. As for those little speedballers with thier expensive as hell guns...all they can do is shoot alot and fast. 9 out of 10 speedballers cant hang with scenario/woodsball guys for too long. They just arent built for body breaking action that we so crave.

Re: Which type of barrel?

I utilize all of the above. I had a Armson and loved it. I use a CMI Thunder Pig with straight riffling on my spyder and occasionally on an A5. I have one A5 right now with a FlatLine and the other with an Apex. And then I have a barrel kit I use on occasion and a J&J Ceramic.

It just all depends on what I'm in the mood for and how I have my marker set up.

Yea, I got the J&J edge elite kit too, it's pretty sick, I usually just use the 14" inch J&J barrel though still.

Re: Which type of barrel?

Im looking at rifled. rifling may or may not work in paintball but those who use rifled barrels swear by them.
