I can get a decent price on a new standard tippmann barrel but if the match barrel is going to cost the same to get machined with better accuracy results i would rather go with it. Is the idea worth chasing?

When you say throwing fliers, what dispersion are we talking about, and what level of dispersion are you requiring? Those ultralight barrels were made for shooting speed steel at close range.

The standard Tippmann barrels generally shoot exceptionally well. My one is good enough I don't think I'd bother having a better one machined to fit.
