I heard on bigfoot games that you have to buy bbs from them, no outside bbs allowed. Reason is because they are non biodegradable. Can i still bring in my own?

Currently you can bring your own bb's. They do need to be biodegradable though.

they don't need to be bios, its probably a good idea but not necessarily forced.

As of now Games at Maple ridge paintball require Bio BB's and I am sure that most places will be requiring Bio's in the near future so IMHO you should just bite the bullet and go Bio now and find which kind works best for you and your AEG

Yes, from now on at Panther and Maple Ridge, Bio's are mandatory. But you can bring your own.

The original post covers Bigfoot. I personally have yet to confirm Bigfoot's preferences.

If they work, Biodegradeable BBs are the way forward. So let's take Deep6's advice and just find the ones that we feel most confident using.

Remember that companies are always trying to advance their manufacturing and materials technology. They know that field operators and regulatory agencies are going to start noticing billions of plastic balls in the forests around the world. No one wants to be the one causing the Great Pacific Garbage Patch or any of the other plastic oceans.

I personally want to limit how many albatrosses on ultra-remote Midway Island and other animals I kill from my plastic waste. I can't even eat them! Besides, regular plastic is a huge problem in our environment, people are seriously monitoring and researching it.

The responsible thing for LMAG: to lead the adoption of the best biodegradeable BBs available. The ones that balance true degradeability with performance.

It looks like the last post was from about 2 months ago, is everything still the same now? You can bring your own bio's to Panthers? Unsealed bags okay too for regular games?
