Answer 1

You should use .20 gram BB's. I buy mine at Wall-Mart.

Answer 2

Nope, most sporting good retailers will sell low-quality BBs such as Crosman.

You need to either buy online, or find a local airsoft store.



I understand that buying BBs online can be expensive because of shipping, so when I first started off airsofting and needed to buy BBs, I just went on a major airsoft retailer site, such as AirsoftGI, and looked at their BBs. I checked the names and reviews, then went on eBay or Amazon and just bought the same ones, that way the initial price was the same but the shipping was much cheaper or even free.



I personally use TSD Tactical BBs, they are the only brand I use. But there are many other brands that are good. Just don't try to find the cheapest out there, you get what you pay for and low-quality BBs will break your gun.

Answer 3

Do not buy crap crosman bbs and yours shoots 400 fps so you need .25 gram because they go straighter, plus there heavier and with a higher fps they will go farther becuase of momentum, and less wind resistence.Yes you get less volocity but youll make that up quickly when the . 20 grams lose the extra fps way quicker than .25
