    12" for speedball, 14" for bushball.

    I like the compactness of the 12" for speedball, but the 14" is easier to aim, for when I'm lingballing in teh bush.

      12 inch... as Tom (a.k.a. god of paintball tech) says, when you have a barrell the length to the porting is the "effective length". The best size he says is 12 inches, and ten would be to little.

          I cant fire 14 in barrels. They are just WAY too big for me.
          I can stand 12 inches but 10 is my fave

            10" for a mag...12" for any other gun.

              12" is fine, with a Mag, like 2" of the barrel is already in the marker, so its like having a 10". Add that to the compactness of the Mag, and you've got a very maneuverable marker.

                  anything past 12 you start losing efficency as there's more drag on the ball and friction in the barrel which is made up for by turning the velocity up.

                  12's my favorite length, not too loud, efficent an not too long

                        I voted for 10 but I could stand 12.

                        There's a guy at my field who shoots like a 4 inch barrel. It's an Equation kit with just the back and a tip.

                          Do you have a single button on your computer that enters in this phrase for you? We heard you the first, second, third (and so on) time. You have claimed before that a 16" barrel allows you to "kill more people". Could you explain why, or does "rock the 16 or go home" pretty much cover it?
