I feel this was long overdue as it was half the point behind me buying my cyma. Nice one, that's why I got mine. It's been rebuilt more than a Cuban taxi by now. nighthawkkhan 1

Hatchet Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 Yes, I have no idea how, or how long it's been in there. Reasons not to use Bios I guess... nighthawkkhan 1
Ad_ Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 Most bio BBs don't swell up, or at least modern ones don't (although their "biodegradability" is questionable). In any case, don't use poor quality BBs, bio or not... Rogerborg and nighthawkkhan 2
Shamal Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 That must be nearly 10mm. Are you sure a tic-tac or smint hasn't gotten in there somehow? Lol. Somebody on the forum did some in depth bb testing a while back and one of the tests was to leave different brands soaking in water for some time. As I recall they didn't increase in size. Not sure if he tested bios though. But even so I have read that bios take years to break down completely. Rogerborg and nighthawkkhan 2

Hatchet Posted July 28, 2021 Posted July 28, 2021 No, it's a weird one. Generally I only run Geoff's, but I have occasionally picked up a bottle of some generic Blasters or similar if I've run out on the day. Honestly no idea how long that's been in there. Although now I look at it I'm wondering if the bb at the bottom of the loader is a bit oversized too... I guess the answer to this is to shoot more ammo so it's not sitting around as long?
