Ok good news. The bb's I recently purchased were surprisingly great!! Upon first visual inspection, the bb's appear seamless and hold a high grade of polish. Under a magnifying glass, I compared the bb's to the madbull 36's and came to find that the alphas had a noticibly higher consistency of quality... Surprising... The shooting test is what really surprised me. Because of the polished surface, they fly harder, fps wise, and farther than bio shot. I took aim at a target at 50 yrds and had 9 out of 10 hit... When finished, I took five pellets and opened em up to take a look. Out of all five, 1 had a slight inperfection on the inside.. A small air pocket only noticable through magnification... Above all, 5000 rds for 12.99 is a deal. Especially for .32's. I highly recommend these for any sniper, especially if you are on a budget. Hope this review helps.. -Happy Sniping
