Need a decent stock barrel replacement

[Dirtjump9]

Hello all!
Sorry for creating another "whats the best Tippmann barrel" thread but I have a serious headache from sorting through all the lame "buy a Flatline 'cus they are the best" posts. :blink:
Right now I have a Tippmann 98C with the crappy stock barrel and I am very dissapointed with its accuracy. I'm willing to spend about $60 for a new barrel. Like everyone else here, I want the best accuracy and flattest trajectory I can get for the money, and please don't even bother suggesting the Flatline; I really don't like it because it bounces too many balls and cleaning is a pain.
Thanks so much for the help, I really appreciate it! :)

The All-American barrel I havn't really been keeping up with the mid-range barrel marker but if you are a little strapped for cash go with a teardrop, they are great for the price.

[ShadowStrike]

Yeah, you want to go with pretty much any Smart Parts barrel. ;)

[yellowpumpguy]

Yeah, any Smart Parts barrel would be nice. The Teardrop and the Progressive are the same, but the Teardrops porting just looks different. They both shoot darts.

I know you dont like the flatline but the flatline has the flattest trajectory

[Nocturne]

but has the worst acuracy of almost any after market barrel.

Thanks for the suggestion; Its much appreciated! :)
I was looking at the SmartParts barrels and they seem pretty nice. I'm just looking for that good accuracy and maybe a little less noise.
BTW, Has anyone here tried the 32 Degrees Terminator barrel? I've heard that was a decent barrel too :huh:
:)

Well... I did a quick search on E-bay and found a nice, slightly used J&J Ceramic barrel (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7163758711). Came out to $24.99 UDS... Not a bad price if you ask me :)
And again, thanks for all your imput! :D

like the many people before said any smart parts would be fine. yea the cermic is a awesome barrel deff get that. my friend has that on his 98 and he loves it. he let me shoot it the other day and it is so nice and accurate. if you want reviews on diff barrel or other tiems then check out www.pbreview.com its a pretty helpful site. i have always used it

ya smart parts is good but my friend has an empire twister and the distance is awsome! it is also very accurate because it is rifled. the distance is good thoi because it shoots a lil high
