BB Brand and weights
 
Had this in mind 2 years ago but I keep forgeting.


Analytic Balance Result for Excel 0.2g, MetalTech 0.2g and KSC 0.25g
Measurements are +-0.0001g

Randomly picked 5 bbs from each bag and brought it to my chem lab.
Each BB is weighed twice, one is before I pick them up with my fingers and one is after. Both measurements are the same. The oil from my skin did not have a noticable affect on their weight. However it may affect the friction on the hopup (still need to devise a test for that). I had a long list of diameters somewhere. I'll post those up when I find them, but they may be out of date by now since BB molds will wear and everything depend on QC at the time.

Cool Jasper.

Now if I may ask. Which of these performs the best in your AK47?
