For this, you could use a smallint, if your data does not have fractional values. You could use a smallint even with fractional values up to two decimal places for the range below 300 pounds (just multiply by 100 before inserting the data, and divide by 100 when you retrieve it.

If your data may change ranges later on, or might include something other than pure numbers, you may consider using a varchar or text type for databases, or the String type in code.
