You are more than likely getting this off of a batch of ammo bought at Wal-Mart, but I will answer it for you anyway. Airsoft BB's come in one size, and one size only, 6mm... no one calls it .24 cal except for people at Walmart trying to pass their ammo off as higher quality. .24 cal = 6mm The POINT12gram BBs are usually very very very low quality, but the .25gram bb's are usually high quality. The 6mm BB's come in varrying weights, the standard for good guns being .20g. Some people (like me) have guns that shoot fast enough to allow for a heavier weight like .25 or even .30. The heavier weight ammo will make your airsoft gun shoot a lot slower, but the bb's will behave better through a hop up, be less effected by wind, and are able to cut through brush and grass. To summarize your answer, the .12g is the wight of the BB where as the .24cal is the size.

If I used .12g BB's in an airsoft gun that said to use .2g would that be bad for the gun Or would you recommend using .2g for all guns specifically the Electric Tactical M4 Assault Rifle FPS-315?
Most guns are built for .20 gram bbs, as .12 will be too light and inaccurate Some store brand airsoft guns are measured using .12g BBs because it increases the muzzle velocity due to the light weight. This is done to inflate the real performance of the airsoft gun. .12g BBs are to be used in the following kinds of guns: - Plastic Spring powered pistols - Plastic single barrel spring powered shotguns - Airsoft Grenades - Airsoft "flame throwers" Most airsoft guns use .20g BBs or heavier, not to exceed .25g for most airsoft guns (Many airsoft fields limit you to .20g BBs anyway). The heavier the BB, the more accurate it will be, but the more energy it will take to propel it. In short, use .2g BBs as a starter minimum.

The BBs made in the factory are almost flawless, making a homemade BB and using it would be very bad for your gun. One of the easiest ways to break your gun is by using bad BBs.
