I've used both in my 12 ga. 870 with rifled choke tube and red bead front sight. They both seem to shoot well and I usually pick up whichever is on sale.\n I just sighted in a new fully rifled ported cantilever barrel with a 3x9-32 scope a few weeks ago. While both of the cheaper slugs still shoot well in the new barrel I found that Brenneke heavy field short magnums shoot a little better and pack more punch. It is a 1-1/4 oz. Emerald Slug. I picked them up at Gander Mountain for $4.49 per box of 5, compared to the $2.49-2.99 for the Remington or Winchester 1 oz. slugs.\n \n Remington slugs are 1560 fps muzzle, 1175 @ 50 yds., and 977 @ 100 yds.  They have 1340 foot lbs. of energy @ 50 yds. and 926 @ 100 yds.\n Winchester slugs are 1600 fps muzzle, 1161 @ 50 yds., and 953 @ 100 yds. They have 1310 foot lbs. of energy @ 50 yds. and 882 @ 100 yds.\n  Brenneke slugs are 1476 fps muzzle, 1174 @ 50 yds., and 1002 @ 100 yds. They have 1606 foot lbs. of energy @ 50 yds. and 1170 @ 100 yds.\n The Brenneke's shoot very well through the new barrel, so I went back and picked up a few more boxes just to have on hand.

I suggest a nicer spyder.  Something on the lines of an Electra or an Imagine.  The electra is a great lightweight gun that is perfect for aggressive front players.  with the right hopper it should be able to shoot at least 20 balls per second depending on your shooting skill.  It has the rocking trigger which is really helpful.  If you are really skilled you can get it to shoot 27, 28 balls per second.  I reccomend this gun highly since i have used it.  You can get it for like 250 dollars.  Great Gun

I have found for my gun which is a mossberg 500 slugster that rifled federals work the best.  I have had problems with winchesters. they jammed up my gun.  Don't use sabots unless you have a rifled barrel

If you shoot in the 90's, then a 10 gram difference in shaft weight will make absolutely no difference in your game. So, the answer to your question is it doesn't matter. However, it may be better on your wallet/purse if you go with the least expensive shaft.

They don't hurt as much as a BB gun, but at a close-enough range, they can, indeed, leave a welt on you.\n\nBut, from farther away, it's not that bad.

cheaper - airsoft by far\n\nrealistic - im gonna say air soft because paintball markers look unqice (or however you spell it)\n\nHurts - paintball hands down\n\nYou can get paint bbs for airsoft.\n\nFor airsoft prolly just sun glasses or something over your eyes.\nPaintball - Mask, then you porlly want to go with a long pair of pants and well igo in a t shirt and a hoodie. (you DONT need a cup, lol when its my friends first time i always get that qestion)\n\nIm gonna go with paintball on the protection.\n\ni find paintball to be more fun but it is way more expensive so you play less then you would airsoft, you can play airsoft when ever, when ever, not paintball.

you are thinking of .177 caliber.  that's a bb or pellet gun.

P90 here i'm thinking of getting M4 carbine and probably a gas  blowback barreta or glock. On the Rocket launcher good luck I heard there were plans for an CO2 powered RL somewhere on the net but i haven't really looked.

I think you can come up with the most obvious difference(one shoots bb's and one shoots pellets) Pellet guns are better though as far as killing power because the projectile can mushroom on impact like a bullet from a firearm.

It all depends on what you intend to do with the gun. AEG's (automatic electric guns) are normally considered the most practical guns because they are usually effective over reasonable distances and are good for CQB (close quarter battles). spring guns are *usually* only for beginners. there are several good quality spring guns but they aren't going to do a whole lot of good against someone with an automatic.\n\n   i do like Gas guns, don't own one personally but they are reasonably powerful and realistic and usually good quality but they are mostly semi automatic, and pistol sized firearms, most people will choose an AEG for their main weapon.\n\nPrice wise you get what you pay for. AEG wise you can't go wrong with a UTG warhawk AK-47, they run baout 100 bux w/ 30 shipping on ebay. springers, you can get good ones at wallmart or dicks sporting goods, gas i'd recomend looking online.\n\nIn short: AEG's are best main weapons, Gas makes an excelent side arm, Springers are really just toys unless you spend a few hundred bux on a sniper (not recomendable)

As several have already advised, you want to use small shot and relatively low powered loads.  Extensive testing has been done with all variations of shot and shell that you can imagine for both law enforcement and civilian use.  I have reviewed and participated in many trials using typical housing materials and human ballistic compatible materials to simulate the effects of many different weapons, including shotguns, in a home environment.   Even with low brass, target or inexpensive field loads (#7 - #8 shot), the terminal effects were devastating within 2-15 yards.\n\nIn this range the shot pattern has very little chance to open up more than a few inches and thus most of the pellets and energy of the round is concentrated in a very small area of the target.  Total penetration of the pellets depended slightly on clothing, but typically ranged from several inches to more than 8".  In many of the trials the ballistic simulant was either cut in peices or turned into mush.  The small, soft lead shot also had a lessened tendency to penetrated both sides of a typically constructed home interior wall after passing through the target.  Most of the energy that remained after exiting the target was dissipated when the pellets hit the building materials and deformed due to their soft consistencies.\n\nSteel shot and even larger soft lead shot, proved to be much more apt to over penetrate or ricochet than small, soft lead pellets and I would not recommend steel, hardened or large diameter shot for home defense.  It is important to note that even small,soft lead  shot can't be called safe when discharged inside a building due to many known and unknown factors.  Known factors include, but aren't limited to pellets that miss the target and strike walls or ceilings without first passing though the intended target, weakened or varied building materials that the pellets may strike, distances and number of walls between bystanders and simply the innumerable dangers posed by discharging a weapon in such close proximity to others in an uncontrolled situation.  \n\nWith that said, if choosing to use a shotgun for home defense, I would stick with small shot and low powered loads.  There are even several rounds available in less than 2 3/4” sizes for all gauges of shotguns that provide ample terminal effects, but help reduce collateral damage even further.  Please remember that no matter what weapon you choose or what ammunition you pick, any can and will be lethal to humans under the right circumstances and should always be treated as such.  The opinions I have expressed here are simply to demonstrate how you might choose a relatively "safer", but effective loading than others mentioned in other answers to your question.  \n\nAgain I emphasize that that there is no load that is truly safe and could be relied upon to not seriously harm or kill another person either intentionally or unintentionally.  Even low powered loads and small soft lead pellets, can travel though walls, windows or any other housing material and still kill a person on the other side. Make sure you get some training and advise of a Certified Firearms instructor not only  to increase your safety and proficiency with your weapon of choice, but to help you with the weighty legal aspects of this topic as well.

Well it completly depends on how you play, and what you budget is, if you a teen like me, and want to play in local areas (backyard, parks) I'd go with spring, don't get auto because they don't really shoot very far or hard, at least if you don't want to pay 200+bucks. spring guns shoot a lot harder, but you have to cauk them each shot, but at least you can hit somebody further than 20 feet! I have a shotgun that I bought on ebay for like 15 bucks,it shoots pretty hard, and you can cauk it really pretty quikly and easily because thats where you put your hand, rather than somewhere near the stock where you would have to almost put the gun down to cauk. Your gonna want at least 230 fps (feet per second) If you wanna hit more than 20 feet. My gun is 300 (so it says, i doubt it)and can shoot about like 30-60 feet i think. but i would go with 270+fps. ok there, thats all i know. by the way ebay sellers make the price on the item like 2 bucks, but they charge like 15-20 for shipping, watch out.

Check out www.redwolfairsoft.com\nCO2 airsoft guns are usually pretty weak.  Check out the guns on the site I mentioned, you should be pleased.

youre not gonna find many pumps out there.  most of the time you will find a good semi-auto for around 100 to 200 dollars.  i personally have a tippmann 98 custom qhich is like a recreational god becuase its so cheap, durable, and you can upgrade it to your style of play.  to start off the gun costs between 150 and 170 dollars, depending on where you get it.  second you can bang it up dunk it under water, and possibly run a car over it and it will still work like new.  as far as the upgrades, you can turn it into a gun that can compete with those freaking expensive guns for around 300 to 400 dollars including the kit price even though it is tournament legal out of the box.  i put on a collapsible stock and a flatline barrel which increased my accuracy and range 10 fold.  when i finished with it i will have a nitrogen tank (it can run on nitrogen without mods) a cyclone hopper or a halo b hopper, an electronic trigger, and a remote line or drop forward.  the tippmann 98 custom is the only gun i have ever needed because of that.  oh and one more thing.  you can field strip it and fix it in the field meaning you can take the gun apart and fix any problems while in the game.  hope you find this helpful.  have e great time playing

Black bear are best taken (in my humble oppinion) with a .30-06 180 gr. Some good brands of ammo out there include Hornady's 180 gr with super shock Tip and Norma 200 gr oryx bonded for when you need just a bit more bang for your buck.

That gun is built like a tank. You can use .38spl+p with no problems at all. .38+p has lower pressures than .357mag.
