ok, higher weight (.36's +) would have fewer anyway, but when they do it would still have an impact due to gyroscopic instability.
basically no, there is no great reason for 8mm.. you could also argue that it's more likely to be deflected as well as being more expensive and harder to find.
all i can say is, try being shot at by someone with an 8mm rifle and you'll come to understand why someone would want one (it's a 'hate it until you try it' thing)

I guess it's more important to point out the brands of 6mm BBs available to us, since you are in Cyprus and are limited to X number of brands, and I've tried everything from Straights to SGM to BB Bastards, and the Bastards are by far the best I've experienced and tested with. The bubble size, count and location is almost virtually eliminated with them as the weight goes up.
Here's a pic I took during my Bastard testing, as you can see, as the weight went up, the bubble structure reduces in size and stay in the center. The 0.36g (no pics) and the 0.40g BBs I've tested after these four weights, literally have no bubbles at all.
