Things I liked:

These are the most precise BB's I've tried. I have a finicky older Model 25, so I've checked samples of 5 brands. Haven't yet tried the Remington, but these seem to be clearly produced by a superior method compared to the others. Average diameter was 0.1733", standard deviation 0.00345".

Things I would have changed:

Price is 6 times the "mass-produced" brands, but still a third less than the round balls.

    Things I liked:

    They are actually different than regular Daisy bbs - they feed better in my air pistols. In fact, they feed so much better my Sig P365 bb pistol, that I will not likely buy regular bbs again.

    Things I liked:

    These bb's are extremely accurate in my adult red rider.The larger diameter is the ticket.Checked with a micrometer with no throw aways.5 shot tight groups.

    Things I would have changed:

    The opening flaps on the container are hard to open and require a razor blade.

    What others should know:

    The regular Daisy bb's vary greatly in consistency,as much as .010 of an inch.About 1 bb in 10 is a toss away if you after accuracy.These are fine for kids plinking if your not worried about hitting your soda cans.

    What others should know:

    these BB's mic a bit larger then your standard cooper coated ones, so they do produce better grouping for your standard Daisy BB guns, less slop in the bore. Give them a try, I believe you will see a difference. My gun is a Daisy #111 model 40, 1947, so you know there have been plenty of BB's down that old barrel.

    Things I liked:

    These BBs are grate , you would think that all BBs would be the same size but not so ! Just so happens that these are the perfect size for my old 1907 quackenbush , a model 700 Benjamin and my iron windmill replica

    Things I would have changed:

    Took about 3 months to get them after I ordered

    What others should know:

    These BBs work well in all my old and some new BB GUNS

    Things I liked:

    These are certainly well made. Size is larger than the copper Daisys you had when you were a kid.

    Things I would have changed:

    Better quality control in sizing.

    What others should know:

    These continulously jam in my Sig P365 Air. Probably one out of 20 will jam, which is not something that happened with the sample BBs that came with the gun. There's no way to know what brand they are. I've also shot many 45 year old Daisy BBs (which I kept for some reason) and had no problems, but they aren't smooth like the steel . Bore is aparently a little too tight for the Avanti's. Just ordered the Hornady Black, we'll see how that goes.

    Things I liked:

    Very consistent, they all look like perfect shiny spheres to the naked eye. They all weigh in at 5.49-5.52 grains. Groups are tighter in my Powerline 5170 and Powerline 415 than with either Daisy zinc-coated and Hornady Black Diamond (which are both good quality BBs). Velocity is the same or slightly higher, even though these are heavier than the other BBs mentioned by about 0.2 grains.

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing

    What others should know:

    These are probably the best BBs money can buy. They are worth the extra money if you value accuracy.

    I tested these against regular bulk pack BBs with a Daisy model 74 at 10 yards. The bulk BBs produced a 3 inch pattern and the match grade reduced this to about a 2 inch pattern.

    Things I liked:

    These are the largest BB's that I've found so far. Having a .177 bore and a 0.171 BB is unacceptable so I set about trying to find the tightest fitting BB's a could find. Ideal to me would be 0.176 or 0.1765. The BB's I had decades ago in the 80's were 0.175 and fit tighter to the bore and were more accurate than today's BB's. These Daisy Avanti Match Grade avg'd 0.1739 (96.53% of total bore cross section area) Black Diamond's - 0.1732 (95.75%) Daisy Precision 2400 ct - 0.1731 ((95.64%) Daisy Precision(350 ct tube) - 0.1722) (94.64%) ( I thought they'd be the same but they were smaller in my sample) H&N Smart Shot lead - 0.1714 (93.77%) Crosman Copperhead - 0.1710 (93.33%) The Avanti's are also without any visible imperfections which is a major problem with the Crosman's more than any others. Between Crosman cheapening their pump guns and now their low quality BB's what in the heck are they thinking!? Thank you Daisy for making great BB's and thank you Pyramid for selling them.

    Things I would have changed:

    Even larger - 0.175 or 0.1755 or possibly even 0.176 would still provide enough clearance and tolerance so that the BB's don't get lodged in the barrel.

    What others should know:

    BB's closer to the actual bore size provide more accuracy and velocity and energy. If anyone knows any that are larger than the Avanti's then let me know. Thanks.

    Things I liked:

    These are now the only BBs I use! My gas blowback Legends P08 Luger was getting a little fussy, jamming up occasionally. I went through it top to bottom and couldn't find any problems. I figured maybe it was the ammo so I bought some Daisy Match Grades and the P08 is now a completely different gun! I've since put well over 1000 rounds through it and it hasn't jammed once! I've chrono'd these BBs in all my guns, and while the velocity is a little less than some other BBs, both the velocity and accuracy are much more consistent. They also leave the bore cleaner. They may cost a little more but they're well worth it! Highly recommended!

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing

    What others should know:

    If you have a gas blowback BB gun that's finicky, these BBs may very well fix the problem. They certainly did for me!
