These are excellent pellets for hunting. They expand when they hit the target. It's like the old saying "Small hole going in, Large hole coming out."

Are BBs or Pellets more accurate?

In general, BB guns are smoothbore, and the barrel is larger than the steel BB. Pellets guns are rifled, and fire a lead pellet that is a squeeze fit to the bore. This is MUCH more accurate than a BB. GOOD pellet guns are more accurate than firearms, within their usable range. I have one pellet rifle that will put pellet after pellet into the same hole in the target at 10 meters.

Why are pellet pistols more powerful than BB guns?

A classic BB gun is spring powered. A pellet gun is powered by a CO2 cartridge, and develops much higher velocity. The above answer is partially correct but there are other factors that make pellet guns more powerful. BB guns come in Spring power but they also come in C02 and pump power plants. Pellet guns come in spring, pump, C02 and PCP power plants. "BB only guns" use a smooth bore barrel much like a straw. This type of system allows the BB to tumble as it leaves the barrel. The BB itself is round and it really does not spin as it flies through the air. This make BBs not as accurate as pellets. Pellets have a skirt at the rear of the pellet, this soft skirt catches the air from the firing source it also catches the grooves in the barrel (Rifled barrels.) The grooves in the barrel cause the pellet to spin as it leaves the barrel. This action helps the pellet fly straighter. The air that is caught in the rear of the pellet drives the pallet faster as it leaves the barrel.. Pellet also come in different weights. Heavier pellets fly slower but fly straighter than lighter pellets. Lighter pellets are more effected by crosswind. BBs do not come in different weights or not enough difference to have any effect on the outcome. The ultimate pellet guns are PCP (PreCharged Pneumatic) air guns. These airguns use a special hand pump or Scuba tank to charge them to 3000 PSI and are capable of firing a 50 caliber pellet at 900 Feet per Second

Can copper BBS be fired in a pellet gun?

If the Owners instructions say BB's or Pellets can be used it would be OK. But IF the Owners manual says Pellets. Then NEVER use BB's in a pellet gun. Oh they will work. But you will ruin the rifling in the pellet gun or rifle. Here is why. Good pellet guns have rifling in the barrel. (Little groves) that make the pellet spin as it is fired. Pellets have a soft skirt on the end that catches the air and conforms to these groves. This gives the pellet a spinning effect and adds to accuracy of the pellet. BB guns have a smooth bore barrel ( Like a straw) the BB is hard and tumbles down the barrel and is not as accurate as pellets. If a BB is used in the Pellet barrel it slowly destroys the grooves in the rifled barrel. It also leaves residue from the copper in the barrel. I've seen several good air rifles that have been ruined by the owner forcing it to shoot BB. It's a poor idea to do this to a good air gun.


Do pellet guns shot metal bullets or plastic?

Pellet guns shoot lead pellets. The advantage of a lead pellet is that it is heavy, and can be shaped into an aerodynamic cone shape that cuts through the air. They are also more responsive to the rifling inside the barrel and spin as they fly. Pellet guns are actually quite different (and much more accurate) than bb guns. You can actually kill small animals with a pellet gun so if you are looking for something that's more of a toy you might want to get an airsoft gun. Those shoot plastic bb's and are non-lethal.
