What do you look for in BBs?

[jcheeseright]

I’ll give them a look. Do they do .32+ as that’s all I use

.30 is as heavy as they go. If you're cool with chucking loads of non degrading plastic into the environment over .02 of a gram though, that's your look out.

All that matters to me is how well they shoot.

I tend to use .2's mainly as for some reason the f2000 doesnt like .25's and its easier just to be consistent with all my guns rather than faff trying to use different weights for different things.

I did use stealths for a while, and whilst they do work as intended (ie people dont duck cos they think your dry firing) it also means you need to be really confident in your sights otherwise your going to end up in a bad place of "is he not taking hits or am i missing".

Bag or bottle doesnt matter, it goes in an odin speedloader anyway (fantastic product btw)

I am cool with it. Range/accuracy above all else. They make bio’s in the weight, consistency and strength I want then I’ll buy them regardless of the cost. I’m spending £18 per 1000 now, if bio’s cost £30 I’d buy them.  Until then, they can stay with sites that require them. Instead of going all tree hugger on people that hate them, why not tell the people who make them to make what we need?

I've never really considered using Bio bb's, I have this image of spit wads... They get wet / go soggy mid flight and........SPLAT!! haha

Ideally I'd like my bb's to whistle like a dropped bomb or scream like a TiFighter overtaking a Wookie.

I'll settle for pew pew plink though...

that wouldn't be impossible, the romans had such a thing for slingshot ammo, i imagine it wouldn't be hard to get the same effect from bb's although likely the accuracy would be appauling:

Sounds to me like you haven’t had a .48 wizz past you at 480+FPS, they whistle. @Duff

I think it’s more a matter of chemistry, .30 is as heavy as they can go with the materials available that’ll; a. Biodegrade and b. Perform well enough to be worth using. 

That said, they’re the most consistent BBs I’ve ever used, nothing else has come close for quality.

All I want is decent performance for a decent price. 

Im sure Geoffs or whatever are amazing but the price just simply isnt worth it for me. 

Bag/Bottle I dont care about, currently use bottles because thats what ASG Blaster Devils come in, and those are the brand I stick with. Weight vs number, I prefer number. I dont care how much it weighs, Id much rather see " X number of Y weight BBs" rather than "1kg of 0.25g bbs" ans try to do maths and figure out how many Im actually getting.

BBs are what affect the accuracy of airsoft guns the most out of all "upgrades".

First criteria for me is BIO, the sites I play at do not allow non-bio BB's, then followed by weight, then quantity. I usually pay around £15-20 for 4000 0.25g BIO BB's which I use for my AEP & AEG, not fuzzy on brand. For my sniper I did use 0.32 Valken Tactical BB's ( £18 per 2500 ) but now trying 0.40 Novritsch BB's (£12 per 500).

Only buy Bio's and would even if the site I play at didn't require them. Bag or bottle doesn't matter , I keep a small funnel in with my kit and fill using that either into a speed loader or straight in to hi caps. Tend to use .25s
