Ammo!

Hey all, what ammo do you use? Some brand names, web links and weights (also some reasons to back it up would be nice too) I need some more and i want to get the right stuff this time ;)

the club sells bags of excel .2s for standard use. Sniper use, go with Maruzen Super Grand Masters. They are expensive ($28 per 500) but they are THE best sniper bbs you can get

because they are $28 for 500?!

seriously though, they shoot straight EVERY time. I suspect if you were to get down to the nitty gritty they would all be perfectly round and exactly the same shape and weight.

don't buy them as i used to use them when i first got my airsoft gun and now i've tryed excel i've realised that aim bb's are really inaccurate( i thought the gun was inaccurate but i was so wrong,it was the AIM bb's)

Excel are my favourite out of Tokyo Marui and AIM (i havent tryed any others),so i recommend excel unless you can afford the Super grand Masters

Right, so if i want excels, i need a bag for my pistol and then a couple of bags to suit my mk1 rifle... Derek says hes using .35 or something, do excel do heavier ones?

You can buy .20g excel bb's from TAG for quite cheap,

as for heavier bb's im not sure,bb bullets sell Straight metal bb's (not sure if youre aloud to use them in games) and AIM .30g bb's and Marushin 8mm bb's:

TAG sell them for $25.00 per bag or $45.00 for two.

The reason they are slightly dearer is that the extra money goes towards the club costs.

TAG website,

Purchase of more BB's (bulk)

Helps with insurance, ecan lease, and any other costs

The idea is to try and keep our club fee cost down.
By buying from the club you support the club and its members.

once you include p&p i'd say it works out anyway ;) Can whoever does it bring 1x bag to the next game? Also, how many for $25, 3700? What are payment terms, cash or bank xfer? (I'm a shocker for forgetting cash) ;)

if you are snipering with an upgraded gun (350+ fps) do not use anything less than .29. In fact i wouldn't use anything other than SGM. When i used my rifle SGMs were dead on the mark with no variation (hence my 3 100m kills in nelson)
