Hi, i am new to the scene and have just brought a tippmann A5. I have been told to upgrade the barrel, but unsure which one to go for. I have used the apex barrel before and it was good, but which one is better. please give me some advice

Apex easily. Will give similar range but alot more accuracy and versatility. Flatlines create alot of bounce, Apex's less so.

Apex - Same distance as a flatline, more accurate, get that little spin dial thing. Paintball "WANTED" style ftw!

Apex hands down.

i read that the flat line can chop balls and is it a hassel to clean
not reli, i mean ive never had a ball break in my flatline and i must have fired at least 6000 rounds through it by now, n i only got it a few weeks ago.
tbh there isnt much between the two, but i personally feel that the flatline works better, but at the end of the day its down to personal preferance, try n use both b4 u decide which one to buy
