Summery listed at the bottom
As many know, when I can make it out I usually sport my massive Cyma/echo 1 SVD
As far as internals go everything is pretty spot on besides the inner barrel, which apart from the rest of the parts that come out of the box, upon inspection is of very poor quality.
I went on to research what kind of barrel would be best for my svd, and even came up by Gunny's post in the tech corner. However the one thing that I can say for sure is that the global airsoft community is about as unified on the subject as the the former Country of Yugoslavia.
After spending my day researching the topic over and over finding fairly hard evidence, and convincing statements for every side of the inner barrel debate, I simply can't figure out which barrel would be best as every forum contradicts the other.
My SVD is alright with range (max range of around 200 ft.), and fine with accuracy and basic functions at the moment. However Im not seeing the huge advantage of my current (stock) 685mm inner barrel. Often I find myself having to rely almost entirely on ambushing and hiding which personally I find great for going at it alone, but useless when engaging head on. Especially when my ak can land shots in full automatic, although around 20-30ft closer, while being half the size of my SVD
I need a barrel that will keep around the same accuracy (or better) but mainly increase range. Ive heard from a few sites that the way to go is a PDI 6.05 (not sure the length though), or a madbull black python 6.03 (possibly 509mm)
I wouldnt annoy you guys if I didnt spend my whole day researching first and would like some advice.
Summery:
Me want new barrel for SVD. Everyone says different things. Help.
PS. Im sure if this is the correct spot for this post. My apologies if it is miscategorized

Some times you can go for a while on the field without seeing anyone else. A true trooper wont let that put him down. A true trooper will play with himself
