The best 20 inch paintball barrel?

Answer 1

The optimal size for paintball barrels is roughly 10-14 inches. Anything less tends to release the ball before it has a chance to accelerate. Anything more can use up too much gas, cause inaccuracy if not held completely still. A good "sniper" could use a 16-18 inch barrel, but ONLY if it is held still, with a bi-pod, in the prone position. Trying to run around with a long barrel (16-21 inches) is not only difficult to maneuver, but is actually less accurate when moving, or standing and shooting.

Answer 2

If you are looking for one of the best 20 inch barrels, it would recommend a 20 in deathstix. I assume you are using this for woodsball, and it comes in a great looking camouflage coloring. It is made by a company based in Australia, though they are not very well known. Though something to consider is that studies have shown that a 14-16 in barrel is far superior to anything longer or shorter. Really when you purchase a 20 in barrel all your getting is an extra 6-8 in and the higher risks of breaking your barrel in a slide.
