    Lead BB's

    Looking at the Accu BB and H&N Excite copper coared lead BB's for use in my Makarov, KEDR and AK. I know they'll work in the Mak, but how do they do in normal BB guns? Do they cycle ok?

    Its for reduced ricochet rather than accuracy btw.

    Do any of Your guns have rifling in the barrel? If so on a personal level I would only use lead BBs in those that do

    They'll work in most guns but are prone to damage in the magazines. I think they're more trouble than they're worth and not exactly cheap.
    Try to sort out a soft backstop and use steel ones instead

    Certainly bigger than the steel ones

    In my gamo PR15 the gamo lead bb`s are a perfect fit

    Steel bbs`s just roll out of the barrel on the same pistol when they feed in from the inline mag

    Copper coated brill in DW Revolver but jam the mags in KWC 1911 and Mini Uzi. Gammo lead balls don't really work with any of my guns

    Thanks all, I've ordered a tin and will see what happens. I can single load pellets in te AK which shoot fine, so as long as the mag takes them it should be fine.
