Hybrid PVC GB barrel question

Harness the power of precision mixtures of pressurized flammable vapor. Safety first! These are advanced potato guns - not for the beginner.

Hey guys. I've been working on my hybrid and really want a golfball barrel.

I was wondering if a PVC golfball barrel, 1.5" sdr 21 (rated to 200psi according to spudtech), sleeved in 2" sch 80 (rated to 400psi according to spudtech) would be safe to use in a hybrid, even at a 2x mix.
(the launcher will be handheld)

Is seems that it would hold the pressure but am not sure because of PVC's fatiguing property.
Life's too short to mark off the items on your wish list...

1.5" SCH 10 Metal (1.682" id) - fits golf balls, but with tighter tolerances than the 1.5" SDR barrels.

yes it would be able to handle it, and for quite a bit of time on only 2x. get higher mixes and then you run into trouble
