I use Infinity and I have never had any problems with em. The only BB's I have used that sucked were the black .20g BB's you can get at certain places because they are inconsistent in size and jam frequently.

Infinity, Stealth, KSC and many others are cheap and they have poor quality control. Therefore, many bbs differ in size and weight, and can be deformed.

Airsoft Elie, Excel, and Tsunami are the only kind of bbs that should be used IMO. Airsoft Elite BBs have performed better in quality control tests, such as diameter, weight, and roundness consistancy. Also, since they are a little bigger in diameter I assumed they would fit the inner barrel better. I only use AE. I also sell AE bbs. email me if ur interested.

Smaller, hence why so many people have less, feeding/jamming problems with them.. Some may notice a higher fps with infinity/airsoft elite BBs over excels, in standard barrels. Why are they using AS Elite to chrono at LC? ;) Why not excels?

I did some research on matrix bb's and was not impressed... horrible standard deviation on the diameter, horrible weight deviation, and even worse they supposedly have little dimples in them?


I've used around 15,000 rounds of Matrix BB's. I was pretty satified with them. Also did some research on them and found them to consistantly measure at 5.98 to 5.99. They also have a ultra smooth surface that reminds me of Hmmm.....Jennifer Lopez's A$$.....mmmm....(slurp)....smooooth. ANYWAY!! Yeah I personally like Matrix BB's. But I would have to say they come second to Excel's.

Damn! Good information. Because of the land slide performace of the Airsoft Elite brand. It almost makes you wonder. Who did the tests. Looks like I need to try some new BB's out.

LC V chrono =

3-1.3 All non-sniper weapons will be chronographed using EXCEL .25 gram NON-BIO BBs.
OK < 366 fps
Caution 366-376 fps
NO GO > 376 fps
