Necroing this thread as I did some testing today with these BBBMax BBs.

- I had 4" gong targets at 20ft and 75ft.
- I also had 10" aluminum pie plate targets at 50ft. - 60ft. - 70ft. - 80ft. - 90ft. and 100ft.
- The temperature was 25c(30c w/humidex) with very little wind.
- The rifles used.... a G&G SIG550 and G&G SIG552.
Rifles are stock, other than the 550 has a tightbore barrel. They both shoot @ 390
fps. I also was shooting a stock KJW SIGP229R I believe it shoots about 330fps.

- The other BB I was using today was Madbull .28g

**** These BBBmax BBs are damn nice shooting BBs, I tell you what. ****

- Here is what I experienced....

- With the BBBmax, ALL targets hit with first or second shot, every time from 20ft to 100ft. With both rifles. With pistol I was getting hits consistently about 30% of the time out to about 60ft at the 4" gong.

- The Madbull BBs performed OK in the 552 (which is slightly more accurate than the 550 with the Madbulls). The 550 had more flyers with the Madbull ammo than the 552 with the Madbull BBs. The 552 shoots the Madbull BBs about 80% as accurate as the BBBmax. at the further distances. The 550 about 65% as accurate as the BBBmax.

- The BBBmax BBs really worked well in the 550. It was shooting as good as the 552 when using the BBBmax BBs. So I think that the accuracy issue I have with the 550, putting out flyers a bit too often, is a BB related issue.

- I had zero issues with feeding or jamming with the BBBmax... I did have issues with feeding, and jamming in the mags, with the Madbull BBs, in the same mags that I had no issues with the BBBmax.

- It seemed like there was no flyers at all with the BBBmax. Every shot was consistent. Very very consistent. nice and flat and very tight groups out to 100ft. Very Impressive accuracy.... very impressive.

- Where I target shoot is like a dump for the R.M. there are old abandoned vehicles there. As well as other good target materials. I shot at some of the vehicle windows from about 50ft. THESE DID LEAVE VISIBLE MARKS IN/ON THE GLASS.
the mark was a circular ring, a little smaller than a shim.
- I shot at the windshield, the door windows, triangle vent windows, and none of the windows cracked or shattered.

- I also shot at other surfaces there....concrete, plywood, steel, aluminum eavestroughing, posts, styrofoam insulation. I did not see any more marking than a regular BB would leave.... although the BBBmax did bounce quite far after hitting a hard object. Farther than a regular BB.

- visibility... into the sun, you could track them very easily. With the sun, they were very hard to see, almost impossible the first 50ft. with a light shaded background....with a dark background, they are more visible... but with a regular grass, gravel, clayhills type environment, only after about 50ft... that first 50 ft they are moving hella fast and very hard to see when shooting with the sun.

- I have not tried these in wind, but I assume they will react pretty much like any other BB in windy conditions.

*** My overall opinion....

These are a great performing BB. Really the best performance for a BB that I have seen. If these do not penetrate eye protection, and there is no glass to shoot out at the game site, I don't see why these couldn't be used in a game. IMHO
I would not have an issue being shot with these BBs.
