    I have a backup pistol with a mag of .12 and hop up turned all the way up now I can shoot around the corner

    @danielwarner4616 6 років тому +27

    .28 seems to be optimal for good flight stability while still retaining enough velocity to hit farther targets quicker in outdoor in a long range machine gunning battle rifle (400-420fps) setup in my opinion. I use them with my flat hops and I think it is much better than a .30 with that added speed

    • @muwuny
      @muwuny Рік тому

      Also .30s are double the cost of .28s.

    I use .12g BBs for my 40 mm grenades and hand grenades. I have a nice spray and range with them, specially with 40 mm
    .20 I use them on shotguns and AEPs
    .25: For my AEGs around 320-350 fps.
    .40 are feeding my bolt.
    I use tracer BBs indoors. They are really useful where light is low and help a lot to see your trajectory.

    • @SumsarTheThird
      @SumsarTheThird 7 років тому +28

      depends on the range. a heavier BB will leave the barrel slower than a lighter one, and leave the barrel with the same energy. however, a heavier BB will carry the energy further than a lighter one. thus being able to deliver more energy on impact = hits harder

  • @tacticoool

  • @Logan-dk8of
    @Logan-dk8of 7 років тому +6

    The reason for black bb's is that it is nearly impossible for enemies to track, and work especially well if you have a well sighted in gun and you know for sure it will hit where you aim.

    Buy .25 .28 .32 and use all three with your weapon untill you find the right one based on the range. Also buy PREMIUM. I play outdoors and use .25 for my pistols all have MapleLeaf drop in kits, which makes a HUGE difference). And .30 in my AEG

Is this a fluke? I thought they would be the same size just heavier. What size should I get that would fit my sniper rifle? It fires 460 fps with .20

    For .12's what about grenade launchers which are. Just meant to wuicly clear a room wit its extra wide shotgun spread essentially or grenades that throw bb's everywhere. Are those good for that since they are cheaper. No o wouldnt shoot them out of one of my guns unless it was an lpeg or *WALMART* springer. I say that because sniper rifles and shotguns that arent single shot will have issues.

    • @GuyGuysonHimself
      @GuyGuysonHimself 8 років тому

      Your fps will be lower with 0.25g bbs since they are heavier than 0.2g bbs. How much the fps changes between different bb weights depends on your gun. My gun's fps decreased by 100 when I switched from 0.2g to 0.25g bbs. Not sure what you mean by "does it matter playing indoors?". If you're ever unsure about a rule, just give your local field a call.
