Hey guys, my newest BBs from Airsoft Atlanta came in and I promised to review them so here it is!

T.O.C
Packaging
BB finish
Air bubble test
price per BB
Results w/ and w/ out washing
Are they worth it?

Packaging:
The BBs came in the mail in a nice, snug, small box to prevent shifting while shipping. Included with the BBs was my shipping statement, an advertisement for Airsoft Atlanta, some tactical packing paper, and an Airsoft Atlanta magnet. (my 3rd on my refrigerator ha)





The BBs themselves came in a thick-plastic type bag with the Shiba Dojo Logo On the front of the bag.



(I put the BBs into the bottle)


BB Finish:
These are for some odd reason alot nicer than their .36's... They are more durable, have less imperfections, and are actually polished! Here is a handful of BBs i grabbed, to the left are good BBS, to the right are BBs with imperfections.



Now here is the same with the .36's.



As you can see there is a big difference with even less BBs.

Air Bubble Test
I cracked a few of these open and they had no air bubbles.



Price per BB
The pack of 2,000 .43's cost $21.99+$7.49 S&H. Each BB cost about 1.1 cent which is on the high side, but they are worth the price. (price calculated with out shipping)

Results With and Without Washing
Washing obviously Affected the BBs by allowing the hop rubber to grip the BB better, but also it cleaned off some black marks.

Are They Worth It?
YES! Though i haven't fully shot tested the BBs, they are still worth it. I would rate these a good 9/10. People have been waiting for White Heavy weight BBs and now they are here!
Go buy some now!0.43g DOGE 2000 White BBs - Airsoft Sniper Grade Ammo

I'm planning on getting the .40g so hopefully they will be just as good as these :tup:

Great! I hope so! Would your mind reporting back?

I think your math is off some. More along the lines of $0.11/each.

Of course not. I will report back as soon as I get them and can get back out to a field to test them

Wouldn't it be ~$0.011 since it is $21.99/2000? Correct me if I'm wrong.

 

[p2skater1]

Ah yes, but also I had a typo in the old amount too.

Oops. Late night forum posting at its finest lol

 

[p2skater1]

They would actually be 1.1 cents each because 1.1 cents a bb, times 2000 bbs= 2200 which is $22.00.

Aren't these just the Amped Airsoft defective batches, re-branded and marked up? They have the distinguishing characteristics of that small 'dimple' on the rounds, as well as a slightly rough external shell, due to an imperfect polish. If these are the same(and I believe they are), you can get the same thing direct from Amped, for $10.

OP, you say the finish is better on these, but how do they feed in SR/M4/AK style mags? The batches I have gotten jam every 5 shots or so.

 

[p2skater1]

i could try about 50 in my Sr10 tomorrow, but all i have are high caps.

UPDATE: Range and Accuracy Test

I did a quick test yesterday with Shiba .43s, Shiba .36s, and BBKing .43s. I was testing for 220ft accuracy (range which most AEGs cannot reach), feeding, and max range.

BB Co. - 220ft accuracy - Max range - Average feeding

BBKing .43- 8/10 - ~320ft - 6/10

Shiba .36- 8/10 - 290-300ft - 9.9/10

Shiba .43- 9/10 - 330-350ft* - 10/10

I am getting ready to order shiba dojo .45 from airsoft atlanta, I am running HPA in a bolt M82 with a 715mm inner barrel. Are these bbs a good choice?

 

[Shoushen]

This thread is a little old, but I'll answer from personal experience with the .43s.
NO, not really. They weren't bad at first, but I now have a bag of them that range from 6.5mm to 7mm...

Got a chance to try out these .45 bbs but they would not feed in my magazine. The surface of my batch of bbs are very rough, not slick at all and they bunch up and will only feed if you take out the mag and hit it against your hand. They feed ok in a pistol magazine. Don't know if I should wash them or throw them away...too expensive to throw away.

 

[treadhead]

Pretty sure the reason why my .45 bb's won't feed in my midcap magazine is that the spring may not be strong enough to feed them, maybe someone can build a hicap magazine for my M82....or maybe add a second spring? Suggestions?

 

[luke213]

Well for the m82 not sure. If these are the same as Ajax customs bbs which I've heard. Then the answer for me was running short hicap mags for my m16. They feed fine in my vsr10 but not any midcaps I've tried. I did have luck with an old star real cap which makes me think double stack is just too much abrasive action against the mag tube sides.

Take care
