BioTech (Bioval) BB's

[Nick_273]

As many of you already know, Biotech bb's (BBB or Bioval) are the only actual "biodegradable bbs". Currently you are able to get them shipped from the UK for approximately $15 Canadian, plus over $10 shipping. I would like to know if anybody knows if there is a way to get them from inside Canada, and if not, would you incourage Canadian retailers to stock these bb's?
This is an independent test done by Arnies Airsoft---->http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/?filn...io_tests.htm).

This is a link to the Biotech website----> (links to retailers selling Biotech bb's are at the bottom of the page)http://www.biotech-bb.com/

I am in no way affiliated with this company or its retailers; I merely wish to have an alternative to getting good, biodegradable bb’s rather than getting them shipped all the way from the UK.

Thanks and please post your thoughts!

Based upon the poor english on the back of the bag, I believe that EXCEL makes bbs that biodegrade. "Special plastic material is used for these BBs from echological viewpoint." They are 0.23g and you can get them from Specarms.

Not to dig up old threads, but Excel does not seem to have the same idea of what biodegradable means as Bioval.
The above link to Arnies (old) scientific tests says in part:
"BIOTECH consists of starch and potassium bicarbonate.
EXCEL and EXCEL BIO consists of styrene and Barium Sulphate
Cyber Gun consists of a [akrylnitril-styrene-sampolymer] and Barium Sulphate."
I can't find info on Steelhawk bio bbs. The Bioval ones are hard to get in the US.

Anyone tried them?
