Crosman .177 BB's are so low cost - wow, why?
I stumbled across Crosman Copperhead .177 BB's on Amazon for about $6.83 and I thought it was a bargain, so I bought 4 packs. Now I'm shopping on Midway USA for something else and found the same pack of 6000 Copperheads for $6.83 as well. Compared to Daisy zinc plated, these are so cheap!
Anyone know why that is?? (Yes, I've heard Crosman BB's are among the worst, but guess what, for decades, that's the only BB I've ever used with no problems for casual plinking.) Turby |

I don't shoot the 1077, G19, .357, Steel Force, etc that much lately but try to keep a 40 pack around. Just got another one so I have about 60 12g CO2's that'll last a while. When I get in the mood to shoot indoors, I go through those powerletts. Still a real cheap way to pull triggers. |

Use the bb's to load shot gun shells for a rainy day.

Totally! All the fundamentals are needed to shoot airguns accurately. The skills definitely translate over!

More likely the flippers will create a shortage of decent pricing. Flippers reselling everything these days. I'm good... I got another 6k bottle, and I had the same partial 6k bottle forever. I mostly shoot pellets.

Sorry
BB’s, especially non lead, are the worst projectile you could ever use.
Some BB guns are designed around them, I get that. But, non lead, spherical objects lose velocity so quickly……l |
