.30 or high bbs in BIO?

Postby God » Fri Jul 15, 2011 10:46 am

I have been scouring evike/ASGI for bio(Oregon and its liberals/tree huggers-.- ) bbs and I can't, for the life of me, find them. I've found lots of non-bios though. Any recommendations on where to find good, heavy, BIO bbs?

I am under the impression snipers in OR can't use non-bios unlike some other states-

as far as i know, heavy non-bio BBs are typically allowed for bolt guns due to the dramatically lower volume of fire.

yeah if they feed right.

Hopefully their supplier fixes the issue with their bb's

they fix that and they are a good value.

I've always been allowed to use non-bio bb's in my bolt action.


And not that I would recommend it, but when was the last time anyone checked to see if you were using bio bb's or not?

Oh, well, if I buy .36s or higher, most game hosts here should let me use them in non-bio form?

If so, that'd be great! =)

i don't think i've ever seen any kind of ammo other than metal be banned from sniper rifles. you are shooting maybe 100rds in a day as opposed to multiple thousands, so the environmental impact is negligible in return for better accuracy and most hosts/fields understand that.

The reason for the bio's is not because of tree huggers. Sniperzden, our farm and several others I am aware of are either on a food producing operation or are in near proximity to one. There are USDA regulations and inspections regarding food safety that apply. I am the consummate anti tree hugger, and in fact have had the privilege of putting a bunch of them in jail. I demand bio on our farm to keep Uncle Sam in his proper place....that is off my farm........FYI

It's actually not up to the hosts but rather the field owners.

You could try Airsplat's BBs. I have never had any problems with them feeding or jamming, and I get about 15fps more when using them compared to Airsoft Elite (.20s) with a 6.01mm bore. They are also significantly cheaper than other brand's BBs.

Also, if you buy enough to spend more than $50, you get free shipping. CC: AS4LIFE.
