No it's really 22" long - Page 2

The most accurate barrel I have owned was only 10 in. I think anything or 14 in. is a waste.

Yep thats what people with a small barrel always say.

I had a 21" once, I more prefear my 14". I guess it really just comes down to how you use it.

You CAN barrel tag from 5ft away, I guess that's something. Oh, and a word on length -vs- width...... it's the FIT that counts boys.

The whole marker is a "hey shoot here" marker. the hopper needs an "elbow" to fit, so the hopper has to sit an extra 2" higher and the barrel is a couple feet longer so it's really poking out from behind a bunker.

You can really reach out and touch your opponents... if you are jousting. I bought a 22" barrel for cheap and it stayed that length until I got home and introduced it to my pipecutter. Might be good for barrel tagging though.

16 inch barrels can be usefull for woods ball in particular but I would only own a 16 inch STIFFI (go ahead make your comments) cause everything else is to heavy. I bought a desert fox with an 18 inch boomstick (they ballence out really well with a 10 or 12 with the 18 I though i had a midget holding on to the barrel
