    Hi MB
    The guys who have replied to your post are spot on with their comments. I use a 110 wettie double 14mm gun as my go to gun. I have also found the 110 with a single 20mm rubber as good simple alternative.
    My 2 cents would be save the dollars on the carbon barrel and stick with alloy. I believe carbon barrels are too light and not as accurate as the alloy. I have had to place a sinker in the front of my 130 carbon to reduce muzzle lift and the consequence of missing( it now shoots bang on!)
    The other reason I prefer alloy is that I drop my gun a lot to mark Cray holes and Paua beds and it gets dragged around by the surge a fair bit and I am not sure the carbon would like that so much.
    Whatever you choose just get out, get swimming and enjoy!
