I wanted to start testing bb guns by buying better ammo. Bought some Daisy match grade shot and tested them in a Daisy 188 at 25 feet. They were tested against the Crossman copperheads. I think the results speak for themselves.
The ground shot are slightly larger in diameter than the cheap BB's (.173 vs .171), and more uniform
I think ground shot BB's will deliver all that your BB gun is capable of, the larger diameter seals the bore better, they even tend to shoot a little faster. It will be interesting testing other guns this way, and see if others show improvement.
