Angel Barrels

Did anyone else get horrible amounts of ball breakages with the standard infinity.

Personally I've found it to be the worst barrel I've ever owned, on any marker. If the barrel was so good why did you all buy other kits?

Pipe has rocked my world for a bit, going to try some dye titaniums to see how they go.

No.

I have been using the standard barrel for years now and get no barrel breaks at all.

Maybe you should look into the paint you are using??

Certainly in the last 3 or 4 events(all I can remember) I didnt break a ball all day using the standard tube.

I own several barrel kits but I always use the standard barrel because it is just as accurate, lighter and better looking than the barrel kits I own.

No, I sold my barrel kits, just not needed. The only extra barrel I have is an ultralite. I use that at training as we only have a hyperball field and I don't like bashing up my stock barrel.

Like John says, if your are breaking paint, it's your paint that is the problem, not the barrel.

I've tried a few different types of paint. I think the better question is what paint are you guys using?

Draxxus/Diablo midnight is my current favourite Affordable and effective.

The main reason most people buy barrel kits is to get a good paint match. Not all paint is .688
