why? are you planning on killing someone? well any ways ive used 1/2 in steelies in my marble gun and it went cleen through a solid wood door. so they are good but be sure that you have some thing behind the target so it wont keep going.

yah a 1/4 inch thich balsa wood door.
youre not gonna go through that thick of wood . you may dent it but you won't go through it. and if you did the ball wouldn't keep going
