Freak with 14" All American front on my Impulse as that's what it came with.

Barrel length makes bugger all difference in accuracy and anything over the standard of 14" is pointless unless you plan to spear your oposition. I've tried all the different Freak lengths on mine and there is no differnce in accuracy. The same is true with other systems, 14" is generally the most common. Make sure your back bore is well matched to the paint you're using and you're sorted.

The blow test is a common way to size your barrel to your ball. Take a ball, place it at the end of the barrel and blow it through. If it rolls out the end before you get a chance to take a deep breath, you're too big, if you turn blue trying to get it out, too small. You should be able to blow it through the barrel with little force.
