if i remember right, the UTG L96 is a clone of the maruzen L96/APS2. look for parts for one of those two, they should be interchangeable with your UTG.

i have promy barrels in many of my guns. i like them. i think ive used PDI a few times, but not enough to form a viable opinion on them.

I have used an assortment of both brands of barrels. Using both Promy's and PDI in bolt's I think PDI delivers a slightly higher quality barrel-of course I love both brands, either way you will win over the Madbull stuff assuming the rest of your hop up is in order. If you are feeding your rifle a high quality brand of BB and consistently use that brand, get a 6.01. Consistency is key for a bolt rifle, and if your compression isn't perfect, you need to get that fixed as well, it will drastically improve the accuracy of the rifle. Good luck!

pdi for a bolt is best imo, but that is just personal preferance. I dont think that there is a measurable differance as previously stated. Any type 96 cut barrel will work for utg, x-fire.org should have pdi stuff ;)
