The last thing I want to get with at an airsoft game is a damn nerf ball fired at 100 PSI. Add that to the fact that no one wants to get called out for that kind of anticlimactic event, and you can see why the bb filled shell idea was better IMO. A huge spread of bbs raining down would be a lot more noticeable and intimidating than a nerf rocket falling out of the sky (and probably safer too). I like the idea. But the only thing people like to get hit by are bbs, so fire bbs, not a rocket.

Now, the sabot filled with BBs idea is intriguing. If you could manage a way to get a couple hundred bbs spread over a decent area while doing it safely, I'd be all for that being used in a game.

I remember the test shot in that back parking lot area at NL4 on Friday night. That thing made an ungodly noise and the football pretty much went out of sight. It was glorious, but would probably break faces at close range.
What was the PSI on the test shots?

I believe we shot at around 70 to 80 PSI in that parking lot. We had a regulator hooked up, so we could dial it in, but I believe 80 was the max we ever did. At some point, you start to shred the nerf when you shoot it. Our test shots that we have video from, was the hand held one, that uses a particular airsoft grenade for the propellant. Also worth mentioning, the hand held one only shot the nerf 2/3 as far as the truck mounted one. Those videos are here.

Those ideas on the bb filled sabot shell are great! (kudos to all) I have decided that I will design a bb filled shell that willbe the mainstay of anti-infatry combat with the artillery I am building. I was just wondering if there are any fields out there who would allow this at their field(in the rochester area). Also does anyone have any sketches of a bb sabot shell they would be able to show me, it is not my area of expertise and I would love any help I can get.
