·What are your favorite bb's and weights? Also explain why.
I shoot with the madbul .36s. I'm shooting right at 490FPS. I have had great luck with tracking them through their entire flight. They also are pretty consistent even with my bad compression and misaligned hop up. My gun was hooking to the right, but the BBs were consistent enough that I soon started getting kills. I also play in very green woodlands, so it is least visible around here.the3rdeye88 said:I've shot .30 ASGI and king arms BB's through my m14. They're decent, but I would really like to find some white .36 or heavier, but I haven't had any luck. I highly doubt I would be able to track the green .36's. I'm shooting above 400fps too.
Wait, is that 375fps with .2s or with .4 bbs?fuzzywolly said:Madbull .4s at 375 fps.
.2s. She shoots slow, but I get more range/more consistent results than with lighter bbs. Although, I ran out of .36s and am curious as to how they would perform.toomanybbs said:Wait, is that 375fps with .2s or with .4 bbs?fuzzywolly said:Madbull .4s at 375 fps.
What kind of gun? what kind of range? where do you play?fuzzywolly said:.2s. She shoots slow, but I get more range/more consistent results than with lighter bbs. Although, I ran out of .36s and am curious as to how they would perform.toomanybbs said:Wait, is that 375fps with .2s or with .4 bbs?
Everything you ask can be found in the forum and on the internet. My posts aren't insulting, your taking them personally and making them insulting. If you want them to be personal and insulting I can do that. You make the point of having weight compensating for inconsistencies. *shrugs* It just doesn't work that way. Rarely at that weight have I seen any noticable increase in effective range over options such as BBK .32s, SGMs or Bioval .27s/3s or G&G .28s as well as some GBs and normally just reduces the maximum range of the gun. It's just the nature of the styrene molded BBs we use. Plastics at those densities doesn't work well with HIM and leads to air bubbles. Some have thrown around the Idea of a greatly slowed cooling, but this significatnly increases the cost per round and would require a solid understanding of plastic science and such. Metal rounds have been talked about in .66 and .88 but this brings up another set of issues such as reaction to eyewear, optics, barrels and such. Another option is gold BBs. It's a relativley soft metal, heavier than plastic and will take the molding decently. There is still the problem with cost and would probably only be used for maximum total range testing in indoor enviroments. Most of these are just ideas and will probably never come to fruitition. The ultimate option for regular civvies is tungsten BBs at 2.0g BBs, but will F**K your barrel in a couple of rounds due to the high impact of the BB's in the barrel with the skidding/vibration theories. Past that you need access to depleted uranium and such, lead may work, but there is also possible toxins and is still soft so damage to barrel won't be too high, but still it is just an idea. Lastly, just because silica is in glass doesn't mean it is.suppresedkilla123 said:Well to begin with I am just asking questions of things I do not know so no need to be rude so just stop posting insulting posts. I already know madbull bb's have airpockets, and are of decent quality but people seem to like them so I am thinking the heavy weight might compensate for this a little bit. Also silica is in a lot of glass.
Pushing 225 feet tops on my TM VSR 10 (stock hop up) which spits out bbs at 370 or so. I kind of want to put in a heavier spring for a bit more range, but I'll take what I got for the time being.toomanybbs said:What kind of gun? what kind of range? where do you play?fuzzywolly said:.2s.
