0.20g BBs are almost as bad as using 0.12g BBs outdoors, they fly everywhere after 50ft or so, and have zero penetration in brush. I remember at one point my 350fps MP5 took a mag and a half to get a single hit on a guy lying prone under a cedar tree, was about 50ft away, what snagged up the BBs most was a bunch of 2ft high dead grass about 5ft away from him, in between him and myself. Since I've gone 100% 0.25g, I've never had a problem with penetration, and have actually had to practice more trigger control (where I'd have to fire 10-12 0.20g BBs through brush to hit a guy not far away, I'd be seriously overshooting him and hitting him literally with every BB of 0.25g.)
Incidentally, I rarely use anything lighter in my KSC Glock 19s, than 0.30g BBs. I've even run 0.43g with outstanding results, even out to 130ft away.
