    floating vs bull barrel

    I was wondering if any of you have changed your rifle form a floating barrel to a bull barrel? If so did it improve your shot accuracy. I have mixed feelings of tunning the harmonics of a barrel. If you go to a bull barrel will that take the harmonic tunning out of the equation and leave you one...

    Why are 3000 psi gun tubes so high?

    I was shopping today and saw some larger tank for paint ball guns that were under 30 bucks. They were rated for 3000 psi co2.
