Honest review Best-price finder Insider intel
A one-piece alloy BBCOR newcomer that swings light and hits HOT, rivaling pricier $500 composites like the Meta and Zen. A genuine top-3 BBCOR bat.

Our Review
We put about 1,000 swings on the Vandal BBCOR and were blown away. The ball comes off this one-piece alloy barrel HOT, with zero sting or vibration, and the composite end wrap keeps it light and fast through the zone. Honestly better than the banned Slugger Meta and a legitimate top-3 BBCOR bat.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Extremely hot off the barrel with the ball launching on contact
- Zero stinging or vibration; feels solid in the hands
- Light and easy to swing thanks to the composite end wrap lowering MOI
- Ring-free barrel avoids the dead spots created by rings
Cons
- One-piece alloy feel may not suit hitters who prefer a full composite barrel
