What are some good brand bbs that wont break the bank?

Yeah, no one wants to spend money on expensive BBs, but we do, because it's a bad place to scrimp.  Once you've experienced a gun with BBs jammed in the barrel, you'll pay extra not to ever have it happen again.

Luckily, in these days, it seems most BBs are good enough, and it's only the very cheapest that are still rubbish.  Those ASGs are probably fine...?  If you can afford to buy in bulk then Warhead will be good, and you'll be playing very little more per bag.

You definitely need to check whether your local site insists on bio's though.  You'll not be allowed to play if a diligent marshal finds you're using non-bio where bio have been mandated.

Edit: in fact Warhead BBs are the same price for a 1kg bag of non bios, though I didn't compare the postage.  

It's sometimes worth trying eBay for somewhere with free p&p.

https://www.kingdomofairsoft.com/product-page/warhead-delta-0-25g-bbs-1kg you recommend this?

 
I went through 10kg, so ~35,000 of their 0.28g bio BBs with no issues, so yeah ?

Someone else on here did some scientific testing (consistency, accuracy) to compare different brands, and they came out of that very well too... So not just me that likes 'em

£9.50 a bag is a bit pricey unless that includes p&p

If you're looking for smaller unit purchases (though more often) i've never had an issue using 0.25g tracers from Rebel Precision alongside Tippmann 0.28g bio tracers. I've not used both companies non-tracer BBs but can't imagine the quality/performance is much different from their tracers. For outdoor/regular BBs I use just about anything (never had jamming issues) but my current stock are BLS for 0.28g upwards which I use exclusively for outdoors.

Those asg cursed bbs are a good choice but I tend to just buy whatever is for sale on site as any half decent site won't sell crap if they want repeat customers.

 
Err, are you ok, Dan?
