I was thinking of either getting a dye boomstick or dye ss.
I was hoping I could get some feedback on these barrels and what would be a good length to get. Since they are around the same price I was woundering witch one is better.

I have a 14" Boomy and like it pretty well. It's bore size is very close to my J&J ceramic, which is much lighter, a little quieter, and shoots through a break a whole lot better. But, the Boomy makes a really cool 'clink, clink' noise when you shoot, and if you don't break, I think the Boomy is more accurate. I like the 14" length for outdoors/woodsball, length for you will depend on how and where you play and your personal preferences.

Have you considered the Dye Aluminum? It is the same barrel as the SS but lighter. I like it a lot and it is very accurate. I would recommed the 12" or 10".

I have a 14" SS that I got on an auction and I love it. It is heavy but it seems to stable out a little bounce I have when I shoot and also my 114 c.i. tank. The barrel is indestructable and to back it up Dye gives it a lifetime warantee. A 12" might be a better overall choice but I got a great deal on it new. It measures pretty large bore which I need for the monsterous local field paint. I would recommend it to anyone. Good luck
