Hi guys,
Recently Ben shipped me 2 bags of BB king BBs for free for me to review. He shipped some 0.25 Bio and 0.25 Non-bio BB King BBs. They both were packaged very well and came in perfect condition.
I did a accuracy test at Dr. Duck's house using my DMR shooting at the center of a plain white piece of computer paper roughly 120 ft away (measured). I compared them to G&G 0.25 BBs as a control and here were my results.








Here is a picture of the range to the target (the white box):






I was shooting from a supported position using a chair. I fired 15 BBs at each target and here were the results:








Now of the three, the G&G 0.25g BBs did the worst while the BB King Non-bio 0.25g BBs did the best. The BB King Bio BBs came in second.
One reason for why the Bio BB's drop in performance might be because they had some injection nipples left over.

These were found more frequently in the Bio BBs then in the Non-Bio BBs.

If I had a chance, I would use BB King BBs if they weren't so expensive. They are $11.95 for 3000 BB King 0.25g Non-bio BBs and 14.95 for 4000 BB King Bio BBs.
While a bag of 4000 G&G .25 could be found for $12.00 at ASGI.

The roughly equates to:
$0.00398 per BB for the BB King Non-bio 0.25g BBs
$0.00374 per BB for the BB King Bio 0.25g BBs

$0.00300 per BB for the G&G 0.25 Non-bio BBs


All in all, BB King BBs are very good. They are a tad more expensive then other brand of BBs but they do yield a bit better performance in terms of accuracy. If you want BB King BBs, then I suggest the non-bio ones just because they have less injection nipples present.

A special thanks to:
Dr.Duck and Ben.

Grrr. Ben sent me the same BB's, you beat me to it.
Mine's going to be better, though, since I'm doing a video and shooting them through five guns ranging from 280 to 400 fps. So there.

EDIT: Mine are .25g bio and I didn't find any "injection nipples". Huh.

after seeing those accuracy tests at 120 feet I can't wait to try them out. a-grin.gif I ordered a bag of .25s for my M4 and .32s for my M14, we'll see if the .32s do better than my Madbull .36s
