can this gun shoot .177 metal bb's and .177 pellets?

no, this particular rifle can only shoot .177 pellets. It doesn't shoot bb's. It's a break barrel rifle with a rifled barrel, the metal bb's would destroy the rifling inside the barrel so I wouldn't even recommend putting anything other than lead pellets inside it. Some models of Crosman and most of the Daisy line of rifles that are pump (and have lower fps ratings) can use both metal bb's and pellets. Examples are the Crosman 760, Crosman m4-177. Daisy, 901, Daisy 880. It should specifically say both bb's and pellets can be used in the rifle in the ad. I would recommend the Daisy 880 or 901 as they have higher fps than other dual ammo rifles. (750fps for bb's, 715 fps for pellets). You won't be able to find one that shoots both that fire at 1000 fps- for that, you'd have to go with a pellet only rifle like the Crosman Phantom. Hope this helps.

It can but I highly advise against it, BB's will not shoot accurately and will ruin the spring piston as there will be no pressure against it. Shooting pellets is something this air rifle is designed for I recommend trying different brands for accuracy like RWS, Crosman, and JSB. After you find the right pellet keep a good supply on hand and have fun.

It should say what caliper it is though, a standard bb is .177 so as long as its a bb gun then they should work just fine

One at a time. Although I think you can use BBs in the 177, it is highly discouraged due to the fact BBs will ruin the riflings in the barrel. This is a very accurate PELLET gun. Don't ruin it trying to shoot BBs through it.

I do not know. I only used plastic BBs. This gun is heavy, has heavy duty spring and does shoot far.

The gun can shoot any of those but it is recommended to use .20 and up. The .12 will most likely shatter and damage the internals. So far I have used .20 crossman and .29 aluminum bb's. Plan on getting .25 for best combined accuracy and distance.

It's not a BB gun it fires pellets from a clip. The manufacturer recommends that you Do not try to use bbs as steel bbs will damage the barrel. You can use lead pellets or a type of composite pellet.

It takes metal .177 caliber bb's. It wouldn't hurt cause they would simply not fit. Plastic bb's are 6mm. A .22 is 5.56 mm. Airsoft bb's won't even fit down a .22 barrel, I've tried. .177 is 4.5 mm, not even close. They make this exact gun I'm airsoft though. Check out Amazon seller pyramid air they rule.

If your 760 Pumpmaster came with a .177 pellet magazine then you can fire the higher quality ammo. Make sure however that there are NO BB's in the rifle magazine as this will result in a jam-up. The quality pellets can only improve the 760's accuracy; they will not hurt the gun.

Honestly I wouldn't try it with a pellet gun. The target can't hold up to bb's. This target is cheaply made and not worth the money.

I don't beleive so, although I'm not certain. FWIW, I would not suggest this model. I bought for my ten year old son because his friends have different types, and this is like a toy. The BB's are extremely hard to load, and after a few weeks it stopped shooting altogether.

No, the Crosman Destroyer pellets will not fit in this gun as it is a BB gun.

No, it shoots airsoft rounds. Basically the same as the bb's you're talkinging about, except slightly larger and plastic. It's a little safer than shooting metal bb's.

Nah, it only shoots the little metal bbs. First thing I tried to do was shoot airsoft bbs but the barrel is too narrow.

Firearms, NO. Metal pellets, depends on the speed or fps and if they have pointed ends such as some of the .177 small game pellets. This is a thicker plastic helmet.

Unpredictably yes, it's a target grade metal for BB's & Pellets at the right price. All air guns made different & all targets have reaction to physics. I've had no problems with.

On the rear is a release mechanism, left rear, pull back on end to cock gun. On front end is small button below barrel end BB comes out of when fired. Push that button end and sight will tip forward, allowing you to pour BB's into square opening. I think you could put a .177 feathered dart into bb tube, or pellet, (note markings on inside) providing no bb's are in the gun.

First, I will not shoot bbs in mine, as I'm afraid it might damage the rifling. My air rifle likes Crosman pointed pellets (also called Crosmand Hunters), and Winchester round nose. It does pretty well with the Destroyer EX pellets also. With a good scope and shooting from a rest at 10 yards, this gun can give you 1/4" groups measured center to center consistently. Very accurate for a gun priced this low.
