Well i went to Fleet farm today and purchased some 1/4" brakeline. The 3/16" brakeline did not fit my .177 steel BB's so now I am worried that the 1/4" wont fit my 6mm airsoft BB's that I am purchasing tonight. I do not have any airsoft BB's yet, so I am unable to make sure it fits. I am sure you all know, but I just want to check, because my .177 bb's didnt fit a 3/16, I just want to make sure that the 6mm BB's will fit the 1/4"
anyone?
Thanks

No, they don't. They almost do, but that's not helpful. Try to find some 9/32" brakeline, if you can't, get 5/16."

daangit..okay I think I will have to get 5/16". Oh well, they are only like 4 bucks. How much speed do you lose on a 5/16" brakeline due to blow-by? I might actually just stick to steel BB's for now, because I have like 2,000 of them, and I made a backstop that stops them so I can reuse them..
