a soft rubber BB would not compress laterally, but around the axis of rotation due to the hopup induced back spin. it could amplify the hop effect and make for a more stable BB flight.

one of the other reason why they stop making conical rubber bullets for airsoft is that the older ones are reuseable and very hazardous in high powered gas set up, due to imperfection it was never meant for high powered gas set up and at the tim eall the airsoft manufacturer are switching from springer set up to external gas, pump air or internal gas system
