Well £6 a set of barrels ain't to be sniffed at, so I got 3 sets of the 20g versions courtesy of Pure Darts lol. I also get 3 sets of steel tip conversion points for them in red, silver and blue. The conversion points needed O rings, but I still had enough of those left over from a year ago.

The versions are:

Red stems - ringed
White stems - facet
Blue stems - knurled & facet

Have had a couple of chucks with them and they feel good - and as they are barrels only, if I decide to get a soft tip board then I only need some tips and I'm ready to go - win win all round Very Happy

They're all fairly similar to be honest - probably all around the level 3 grip, with the facet and knurled ones being slightly grippier.

At £6 a set I reckon you'd get your money back if you didn't like them anyway lol

Well I am a dart tart Darren lol.

The way I look at it is they are a steal at £6 a set with the £1.49 for the conversion points (there are even cheaper points for 89p or £1.19 as well). And as I said above, if I ever feel like trying a soft tip board I won't need to get a set of darts as I already have them - all I would need would be some soft tips at a couple of quid for a pack.

Curious. Do you think the barrels actually weigh 20 grams?

I have some 16's and 18's coming anytime. Wonder if the weight is right on?

The reason I ask is because my Eric Bristow soft tips came labeled as 16 grams as well.

Barrels weighed 13 grams.

Never thought about the weight last night.

Bearing in mind I got the 20g sets I just weighed 1 of each set and the barrels on their own are all just over 17g - so it would seem that the stated weights are for the whole setup, not just the barrels. That may explain why it took me a couple of throws to get used to them last night lol

Weird. It seems like they allow 3 grams for the extra weight to make 20 grams. Just as they did with my darts. 13 gram barrels labeled as 16 gram darts.
Funny thing is, i can't get my darts to weigh anywhere near 16 grams. I put a medium shaft on and a slim flight. 14.6 grams is all they weigh.

Your's might be close to 20g with the conversion points though??

With the conversion points, stems and flights they are all between 20g and 21g, so with soft tips instead I would guess 20g would be about right
