Which BB type do you prefer?

Spa · April 18th, 2008, 01:45

I wouldn't mind doing a test myself, with 0.25's and 0.28's to observe a difference (which is most likely be slight). I will get back to everyone on this if you like, but in the meantime please continue to post and vote as I am taking everyones information into account.

Cheers!

0.28's aren't on the list, but I use them in all my guns.

Stock P90
M120 Upgraded AUG
Stock P229

.25

brusbilis · April 18th, 2008, 08:49

Marui 0.25

my reason? much more effective range , consistancy, and brush penetration.
manufacturer of the BB ? Marui, best for me
AEG that I use ? AK47 Marui
FPS of mine AEG ? 310 fps with 0.25 (= 350 fps with 0.2)

I only shoot bastards! I use .20s indoors with my TM M4 and .25's and .28's in my M14 socom outdoors. I also use the .28's in my shotgun and WE 1911.

.28

If you're going to set up a poll, do it properly and include all the weights, including those past .30. Polls are useless when the selections only represent a subset of the actual obtainable results.

.28's for me, and now that I have a PTW (thanks Crash) I think we will see how .30's do too.

Ias a big user of KSC's .25 till I started to notice how they fly apart on impact(a few years ago now!).Since then I'v been running AE .25's.My PTW has no prob's with them at all,not one! I have two mod.ed guns and two somwhat stock(they all have Prometheus 6.03mm tightbores).No feeding issues or other issues of any kind,so far! Seems for me aleast that the AE .25's are the best for what I need.I'v tryed others and just find small issues,but I think the AE's are more consistent size than others I'v checked.I think I have way too much time if I'm checking the size of BB's lol.

Running .2 and .25 KSC perfects indoors until I run out, but now have switched over to .28 and .30 BB bastards

Cushak · April 18th, 2008, 10:52

up till now I've neem using .25's.

But I use .3 BB Bastards in my APS, and I'll be trying those out in my custom M4 once it's finished.

jameskersten · April 18th, 2008, 12:53

I have good success with Metal Tech .25g in my ICS and I know of another PTW user on our team who used the MT .25 for a long time in his PTW with zero complaints. We just like using the .28 now. I am tempted to try the BBB .30g next time we make an order

Scarecrow · April 18th, 2008, 23:14

I can tell you from a pure quantity sold point of view, to date .25 for BB Bastard has been most popular, but .28 is slowly coming up behind it.

Bastard 0.28's FTW

Dracheous · April 18th, 2008, 23:24

REALLY depends on what game and what gun.

ie. my MP5's I'll use .28's my pistol I'll use .28's minimum but my sniper rifle I'll use BBBastard .30's, Straight .36 or washed .43's ((later for windy days))

Rukus · April 18th, 2008, 23:44

I run the .20's at the moment I do have a bag of .25's but haven't gotten around to using them yet. I can't remember what brand they are though. I don't have them here at the moment.

Currently I'm running with the .20's in my TM G36c @ 350 fps, TM M4a1 @ 400 fps, and my JG MP5 @ 390 fps.
