What to do!?

Hey guys, I'm relatively new to paintball, I just got my first marker a couple months ago. It's a Spyder TL-R and I'm loving it but im wondering what I should do to it to make it better (preferably more accurate rather than faster). I play almost exclusively woodsball and this is my current setup:

TL-R with:
14" sniper barrel
CO2
Drop forward
Gravity feed hopper

Everything is pretty stock, so im just wondering how i can improve it.
Any suggestions would be great, thanks alot guys!

what's this "sniper barrel"? what brand is it?

the onyl thing you can do now to make it more accurate is to buy paint that matches your barrel bore. you can find charts here

I'm skeptical that it works, but it's worth a shot If anything, you get better efficiency out of it.

Teh general idea is to get paint that's a few 1/100 of an inch smaller than the barrel. Or you can buy a barrel kit, buy whatever paint you want, and match it when you go play by using whatever size barrel back works.

Thats a pic of the barrel, it doesnt have a name on it and its part of the spyder sniper kit, so my best guess is it is a spyder barrel.

I guess it's just the stock barrel that Spyder's come with, labeling them as "sniper"

Anyways, the first thing I would get is an electric hopper. Something like a VL Revy or an Empire Reloader II would be perfect for you. They feed around 12 bp/s which you'll have trouble out-shooting int he woods. It's also something you can transfer onto a new gun, if you outgrow your spyder.

After that, aside from investing into a HP Tank, there's not much I can suggest you do to your spyder. Save up for a new gun (I know it hurts and is really hard to save up, but that really is your best option).
