Steel shots - Due to their material these BBs provide a higher penetration, even in case of lower muzzle velocities.
There are advantages and disadvantages of shooting steel BB over pellets. Let's talk about the main advantage... Cost: the cost of these to shoot is incredibly cheap, in comparison to pellets, generally speaking you'll get about 3x more BB to pellets for the same price. This makes steel BB highly appealing to parents that are buying their kids a steel BB airgun to shoot in the garden (for example) as it's extremely cost effective. Chances are you can find some steel BB laying around and retrieve them too! If you can be bothered.
Then there's the disadvantages, of which there's only really one: Accuracy, the accuracy of a steel BB will obviously be much worse than a pellet due to it's round shape and light weight making it much more susceptible to wind. But let's be honest... if you're getting a steel BB airgun you're getting it to have some fun! So what are you waiting for.
