Supporters Ian_Gere Posted September 8, 2015 Supporters Share Posted September 8, 2015 So Patrol Base are out of .25g Bastards so I was looking around and noticed these new G&G BB's. Has anybody tried them? In what? Any good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin proffrink Posted September 8, 2015 Root Admin Share Posted September 8, 2015 They're ok, but they don't compare to Bastards. I've been using Green Devil and Blaster Devils lately but not for long enough to give an informed opinion. Airlab also out of stock* : http://airlab.parts/collections/bb-bastard/products/bb-bastard-6mm-double-polished-ammunition?variant=1095848295 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Esoterick Posted September 8, 2015 Supporters Share Posted September 8, 2015 My mate was using the 0.28 G&G BBs the other day and they weren't feeding 100% of the time. However I don't know if this was his new gun or the BBs as he'd never used the gun in a game before that. His gun is a G&G SR-25 running at just shy of 450 FPS for reference.

Root Admin proffrink Posted September 8, 2015 Root Admin Share Posted September 8, 2015 Probably worth avoiding then - they're not even very well priced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Rock-climby-Dave Posted September 8, 2015 Supporters Share Posted September 8, 2015 I'll be honest, I just moved over to the .28 bastards instead. Can't say i notice a lack of speed and they still shoot plenty far enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Monkey Nuts Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 .28s all the way! does icequeen on eBay have them? I actually found her cheaper on postage than patrol base, although I do usually pop in to get mine in store. [Edit] No, she doesn't. Who is the uk distributor?

Just searched "icequeen" on eBay.co.uk but it says she is based in the US and also shows no items for sale - do I have the wrong person? Can you give us a linky?

Dannn Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 .28 basterds from patrol base as recommended by rcd for all of my toys, they feed flawlessly and Garry good speed and accurity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hudson Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 I used to use g&g .28s until my regular site went Bio only. Neverhad a problem with them & had great results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrightCandle Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 My Tar 21 before it got an R hop loved the G&G PSBP ammo. They seemed to just consistently hop where the bastards/ASG didn't. My G&G T4-18 however lost an appreciable amount of accuracy with them, it still prefers ASG ammo over anything else and it misfeeds with Nuprol and yet Nuprol works amazingly well in the S&T Tar 21. All I have determined from shooting different ammo out of different guns is that they all seem to like different rounds. Some of my magazine brands like one ammo type, some others, some guns are more or less accurate (measured on paper and in the field at range). You really have to try a variety and get a feel for what is good and bad in your gun because I don't think anything I know about accuracy in any one of my individual guns is likely of any use to you and yours unless its setup in the same way.

Supporters Ian_Gere Posted September 9, 2015 Author Supporters Share Posted September 9, 2015 I kind of agree, Bright Candle, some ammo suits some individual guns better than others and that may well not extend to others of the same model - just chance of manufacturing quirks vs engineering tolerances, but you can also generalise a bit - for eg Blaster Devils are better than plain Blasters, not by much, but noticeably, and Blasters are better than Excel & BB King, not by much, and in different ways, but it is there. IME Madbull & King Arms sniper ammo, Blaster, and Pro Ball are all about the same for range and accuracy, but Madbulls produce more flyers due to internal inconsistencies (I think). The Nuprol .25's I've used fed OK in a 6.03mm TBB and that was last March so during the time when people were complaining of jams, but their accuracy didn't match Blaster Devils. I've been meaning to try Bastards for ages and since i'm sorta flush right now, i thought i'd go for it, but i thought i'd see what the intelligence is on these PSBP's just in case they're TDB or something before switching weight as well. I need some gas anyway, so I may order a few just to test. Have you used the PSBP's Dave? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted September 9, 2015 Author Supporters Share Posted September 9, 2015 How about these Monkey Ball's that BB's Direct are selling? Any info, people? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoffreym Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 just putting in my 2 pence, I've been using a brand called Bad Wolf for about a year now (probably more than a dozen bags), ever since the seemingly lack of blaster devils arriving in the uk, and I haven't had a problem at all, probably rate them slightly higher than blaster devils as well. you can get a bag of 3500 .28s for about £11 shipped from ebay (I tend to buy them in bulk and he knocks a bit off the price). Re Monkey balls, a guy at my site uses them for his UAR, he hasn't said anything bad about them. http://www.fifthcolumnairsoft.co.uk/Ammunition/ http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BAD-WOLF-AIRSOFT-6MM-BBS-BAG-OF-4-000-X-25-BBs-PREMIUM-QUALITY-/301364958039?hash=item462ac05357 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshcowin Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 I like to use .28 or .30 but £18 for 2000 bb bastard ones is just silly Asg have just brought their cursed range of bbs supposed to be the best ones yet. http://airsoftzone.co.uk/consumables/6mm-bbs-pellets/028g-cursed-bbs-1kg-bag-of-3570-asg I have found good results with devil blasters personally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Monkey Nuts Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/221834332308?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT This is who I use if i'm not near patrol base. £12.75 can't be sniffed at in my book. I sent Bastards a message via facebook yesterday and got a reply within 20min saying the UK distributor is dragging their heels about ordering more, so he is going to chase them up. I hope the distributor isn't thinking about pulling out of the brand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrightCandle Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 This video tested the G&G BBs against a variety of others (not ASG or Bastards unfortunately). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MH2vDVZzBC4%E2%80%8B Conclusion was that the G&G were the best BBs they tested.

Root Admin proffrink Posted September 14, 2015 Root Admin Share Posted September 14, 2015 Best out of biodegradable BBs though, and most of those brands (and indeed the majority of bio BBs) are awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dysperse Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 I use the ASG Cursed ones. Not a bad price for a seemingly great bb. Only used 2 1kg bags though so.... just my 2 cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
