i was just wondering which would be more powerful if built the same size, a inline or over and under?

and they will be powered by propane.

I would have to say inline, no bends to slow things down...

okay, would you say that there is a noticeable difference between the two?

Depends what you mean by "built the same size"

If you mean the same overall length, then an inline would have a shorter barrel and chamber than the over/under and this would negate any performance gained by lack of bends.

If you mean OVERALL length, as in the length of the entire gun, then obviously an inline would have a massive disadvantage.
If you mean COMBINED length, as in barrel+chamber as measured individually, then the bend is the only disadvantage to the over/under.
