What is the best bb rifle?

The best BB rifle is the one you can afford. But let me give you more detail.BB rifles are not as accurate as Pellet rifles. Because BB rifles use a smooth bore barrel. Pellet rifles use a rifled bore barrel. BB's don't spin when shot out of the barrel, they tumble. Pellets spin as they leave the barrel. This makes them more accurate.When you say "BEST" do you mean accurate, quality or power. What is your definition of "best".If this is your first rifle then I suggest a Daisy red ryder. Learn to use it properly, then move up to other rifles.See the link below for various BB/Pellet rifles and select one that you like. I suggest the Crosman M4-177. but look at them al first


What are the weapon the wear use in the American revolutionary war?

British soldiers in the Revolutionary War used smooth-bore muskets. The American men used rifles, different from muskets in that they had rifled (spirally grooved) barrels, which greatly enhanced their accuracy - a decisive factor in matching equally with the British forces, who were more numerous. Most men at that time had their rifles made for them by gunsmiths , and a good rifle was one of the most expensive purchases the owner would ever make, but it lasted a lifetime.

Does anyone know what causes bore frosting and how it can be eliminated or corrected in Winchester rifles?

Of course, it is not actually frost. It is oxidation. Use a good non-abrasive bore cleaner and once clean, use a light protective oil to protect the metal.


Do BB Guns shoot very far?

Depends on what you mean by "FAR". BB guns are not very accurate beyond 25 feet, although the BB will travel much further. Pellet guns and rifles will travel further and be accurate at a greater distance. This is because BB's are shot from a smooth bore barrel, like a straw, and will tumble as they fly out. Pellets usually use a rifled bore barrel and spin as they are shot out of the barrel. Pellet guns and rifles are usually more powerful than BB guns.
