Well, we've all been using the same style or similar variation of hop rubber until recently. It's just not something that's come into question....


I've done many reclamations of BBs from soft targets, haven't noticed anything really absolute apart from the odd ding, but those have been written off as metal air nozzle marks (from ptw)
I'd have to take a closer look at them if I try it again...

Anyway, used bioshot and BB bastard between tests and found the same thing occurred on both. I'm leaning towards an issue in physically altering the BB rather than how they're affecting the flight dynamics of the BB purely through spin and applied force. But, you know, I'm open to ideas lol
