Be prepared to get a million and one answers...

Depends on the play (indoor/outdoor) and what gnoos you are using. Generally speaking outdoors with most average AEGs 0.25g or 0.28g is recommended.

I use Nuprol Bio .25s as they are cheap, work very well in my AEGs and my outdoor site mandates bio. Others prefer Vorsk, Ares Amoeba, ASG, Evolution, ad nauseum, your mileage may vary.

Geoffs, BLS or ASG blaster are my go-to BBs.

 

[DerDer]

Used G&G 0.28g BBs and Airsoft surgeon 0.30g last year. The latter had some performance issues.

Recently picked up some Azimuth and Green Devil BBs.  Gradually making the switch to Bio. 

Also would echo Geoffs, they have worked nicely in AEGs that were picky with the ammo. 

 

[BigStew]

check with the site you intend to play at a lot of sites have there own supply and may have restriction on bio or not also quiet a few paces ban blasters for shattering.  weight wise 0.25 for pistols and .28 for AEGs but that depends on the gun some AEGs will be happier with lighter BBs.

geoffs.

0.48 super precision for low round count guns, 0.32g super precisions for pistols and everything else.

Afraid your asking an unanswerable question , your want an opinion on a very personal choice , it’s like “what am best gun ?” One players ‘perfect’ brand of BB is the next players ‘perfect’ example of a pile of shit ! Ultimately your going to need to see if the site your playing at has any restrictions on ammo(bio or non-bio to be used , only use the ammo they sell , etc)and then buy some and give it a go . Obviously your NOT going to buy a bottle of 10,000 bright yellow no name .12’s for £6 from Fleabay , just buy a bottle or bag of a branded name and see how they perform in your guns .

 

[padraigthesniper]

Geoff for the best then ASG for the rest.

 

[Lozart]

Strawberry.

Not an unanswerable question at all. You're right in saying there's variance but also there's well respected brands, and there's shit brands.

Even if it was just opinions, that still wouldn't be unanswerable. Opinions help people make decisions.

@mickyboy I switched to Geoff's last year, haven't looked back since - no problems with feeding through any of my RIFs

 

[proffrink]

Strawberry.

oh....wait

Also extremely disappointed

 

[The Waco Kid]

I favour the ones travelling away from me.

I've found it depends on the platform I'm using.... but I rotate between Geoffs, G&G's and ASG Blasters...

Oh I wouldn't touch Nurpol bb's with a barge pole...

 

[C-Diddy]

As other have commented, this is something you cant really answer, you have to experience.

My two pence:

I recently switched from Zero One Blitz BBs (local shop/site decent BBs) back to ASG Devil Blasters (great) and I have some Geoffs to try as well.

In an effort to convince myself that I'm doing the right thing by way of the planet, I've also got some ASG Open Blaster bio BBs and have to say the .28s were mint out of my TM 416. 

No surprise to see @AlphaBeartalking about Nuprol ?

 

[Cannonfodder]

Tbh I tend to whatever is for sale at the site. Weight wise I normally use .25s, but after yesterday I'm definitely switching to .3s

Don't get me started otherwise this topic will go off piste. Not that anyone does that on this forum.. @C-Diddy?

to be fair, this thread hasn't been derailed yet, so if anything it's due a little diversion

*runs*

I read something about strawberries earlier but I find the seeds get stuck in my teeth.... I'm more of a cherry man myself but each to their own I guess... ?
