Hammerhead - Display Sponsor 2014

HAMMERHEAD barrels are the most advanced paintball barrel in the industry today.

Gun-drilled from solid aluminum bar stock, and not tubing, we are able to hold extremely tight tolerances to produce the finest quality barrel possible.

Our barrels are manufactured to exacting tolerances for accuracy, sound displacement and weight.

Each barrel is carefully milled, honed and polished to ensure the finished product does not deviate from our engineering parameters.

TESTING 

Our engineers under took the task of developing a barrel specifically designed for paintball to meet strict requirements.

Existing technology could not meet these needs. Test results showed some of the same principals in the rifle industry applied to paintball but key differences existed due to the liquid fill and ball characteristics. 

RIFLING PROCESS

Our rifling process is carefully done using the same process used to make military barrels. The rate of rotation, the depth of rifling, the precise number and dimensions of widths of lands and depth of rifling has been carefully selected after many hours of testing to perform better than any other barrel on the market. Our goal through our patented combination of sizers, rifling, porting and muzzle design is to leave you with an unforgettable paintball experience.

KEY FINDINGS

Degree of twist of the rifling is critical to accuracy. Accuracy and downfield sound transmission is positively effected by reverse porting. Reverse porting is critical for proper ball regeneration. Paint quality is less sensitive to a rifled barrel. Ball grouping improvement is achieved with lower standard deviation.
