But dont take that as an exact measurement. I see they talk about golf balls with at least 42.67 mm diameter. So there can be a slight differance.

Yeh i have heard that every now and then you get a golfball that doesnt quite fit very well or is slightly smaller.I measured my barrel and a golfball should fit with about 1mm gap so .5mm on eather side.

That was a pointless post - there is a forum ban on shooting living things (except perhaps trolling n00bs - of which only 4 countries in the world consider to have any form of rights) except in rare cases like low power BBMGs.

So, therefore assume that anyone with any experience will not be stupid enough to either do it, or if they do - post pictures of it.
