       There supposed to be for target practice only. Haven't tried any
       myself but will purchase some and see how it goes. Without
       looking don't know the physics behind them either, as in, do
       they technically inflict more damage due to being a stronger
       material or not versus BB's.

       I think they're banned at most sites. They're classed as pellets
       an give you a really hard bruising as its metal. Also will fly a
       mightier distance as its harder to be pushed by the wind

       All they will do is probably damage your gun, they will be too
       heavy to get up to any speed as weigh considerably more that
       .20gms
       The hop will be ineffective plus bouncing around inside the
       barrel on the way out is not a good thing
       You may even damage the air nozzle as this pushes the BB's into
       the hop chamber, coming into contact with a much heavier bearing
       instead of a plastic ball
       As to feeding from a spring loaded mag that's another problem

       My understanding was when purchasing metal BB's the weight will
       be the same? Hence it all comes down to the physics of density
       of material, and strength. I agree with serinfo, I'm sure a
       metal BB isn't conducive to being sympathetic on airsoft guns.
       The inner tubes are not made of a material to withstand firing
       metal pellets (consistently). Metal on metal? And what about the
       hop!
