I had 2 of my teammates and myself using these bbs at Lady Tresses field this past weekend.
All of us were using .28g - and for good measure I even brought an additional hop up unit including the inner barrel for ease of a drop in replacement.
I ALSO brought .28g bbbastards to compare and started the game off with these.
Bbbastards are always the standard go to for me because I already know what im getting - perfection and consistency. I started my day out using the last of my bag and had NO issues what so ever until empty and needed a reload.
I jumped over to the Bioshots and noticed immediate issues - double feeds (one bb dripping out while the other flys off) and even blank firing - this wasn't an issue at first and I thought, heck for the price of these I could probably deal with it - but eventually it became an issue that was affecting my on field performance.
My teammate, and brother, had the EXACT same issues in his gun - double feeds and blank firing - we found that the ONLY way to deal with this on field was to remove our mags and put them back in however the issues were still consistent a VERY short while later - I also swapped his entire hop unit with the additional I had on standby.
Our set ups -
Mine:
Genuine Magpul Brand pmags
Cyma Hop-up unit
Prometheus purple hop up sleeve
Madbull Python 6.03mm
Spartan_Red Unit 1:
airsoftdepot metal m4 mags 120rnds (brand unknown)
Modify Accurate Hop-Up unit
PDI-W Hold hop up sleeve
Madbull Python 6.03mm
Spartan_Red Unit 2:
airsoftdepot metal m4 mags 120rnds (brand unknown)
G&P hop-up unit
Prometheus purple hop up sleeve
Madbull Python 6.03mm
Crom (correct me if i botched this, going from memory):
airsoftdepot metal m4 mags 120rnds (brand unknown)
airsoft-club metal hop-up unit
stock inner barrel
guarder clear hop-up sleeve
Let it be noted that Crom had NO issues what so ever with the bioshots and feed fine and consistent in his AEG - This leads me to believe there is some factor involving our Madbull 6.03mm barrels and the misfeeds and double shots - however, again - these issues were NOT apparent when using Bbbastards.
Bioshots for the price cannot be beat, but understand what you're getting when using similar brands.
Bbbastards - yes near flawless in every build i've had - but with other brands up and coming and price becoming a huge factor for me - paying 15$ for 2000 is becoming a HUGE issue for me - I have other prioritized expenses to consider first before airsoft at this current time in my life.
Our experience and opinions we're based on personal use - this is NOT a shot at either brand, only our findings.
In the end we want to be using a brand that is consistent AND price effective - honestly, after keeping a good setup and gear you're happy with, bbs become the most ongoing expense in airsoft.
