im thinking of bying the DB Custom Airsoft 6.01mm Tight Bore for my l96

what bbs do you guys recomend?

links plz

Definitely KSC perfect BBs. Check these out:

.30 gram KSC Perfects

.25 gram KSC Perfects

KSCs are some of the best BBs I've seen so far. They come with a standard 5.98mm size with a +/- .01mm variance (very good). No worries on jamming

Another highly recommended brand is Airsoft Elite.

Personally I would go with http://store.matrixbb.com/servlet/-strse-24127/Matrix-10,000-ROUND-AIRSOFT/Detail I use em

marui bbs's are also excellent

The weight from the two brands above. Im going to have to add that I recommend a .23

Because of the more FPS from your TB the more range your gun is capable of with a .2 this can be only slightly affected by using a .23. Its worth it for the accuracy.

I have a question relating to this if you upgrade to a 6.01mm barrel do you need to upgrade anything else on in your gun. I'm asking for a spring bolt-action sniper rifle (BAR-10). If you have any advice i would appreciate it.

^no not usually, if you are shooting above 400FPS I would recomend getting a new bucking for consistency but other then that you really don't need anything else to support a 6.01(besides good quality BB's such as Excel or KSC).

Ive been reading up on the madbull barrels and apparently there actual diameter is closer to 6.01 rather then the advertised 6.03. just an option that you might want to check out, you will need to mod the hop-up a little. But its no big deal all you do is sand down a retaining wall.

are crosman bbs good? and most likey my gun is shooting shooting around 450 with .2 bbs (don't have a crono )

No crossmen BB's are not good, anything really that says their "high polished" usually is just a weird name that means their BB's are of OK quality. Basically just go with the names above that don't have to pray the BB's wont mess up your hop-up.

What gun do you have, it seems the clone sniper rifles have springs where the first few shots are pretty high but then the spring breaks in and the gun shoots alot less then advertised. If its a clone L96 then you most likely shooting in the 400-430 range. If your a sniper shooting at those high FPS you should really use high weight BB's. I wouldent use anything under a .28G BB.

If you have the BAR you will have to sand down the two little retaining walls in the hop-up to use AEG barrels.

Jman, this is what's known as "hi-jacking" a thread. Let's stick to answering the original post and if you have more questions try starting a new thread. Thanks man.
