Reasoning?


I would guess the bb would penetrate more, and I am looking for deep penetration.

I would think an old style pellet would impact more.

But now they have those pointed pellets which may get that deep satisfying penetration I am looking for.

Well I ain't first class
But I ain't white trash
I'm wild and a little crazy too
I have seen a lot of things in my life time.
That is why I walk the line I walk.

if your goal is putting your eye out, just shove the barrel in your eye socket... save ammo

turned my cynical penis into a happy vagina
Then after an Oatmeal Cranberry and Double Chocolate,
it made my new vagina spontaneously sing the Trolololo Song in an elevator.

Fozzie, there is no marksmanship involved in that. I have to ricochet this puppy off something first. BB or Pellet and why?

Interesting concept, multiple projectiles creating more chances to penetrate me. It would be like Saturday night at the truck stop.


We now have one compelling argument for BBs.
