I was looking through some Canadian Tire catalogs and noticed they sell .177 and .22 air rifles. Now, I know that a .177 air rifle fires 4.5mm pellets, and supposedly they can fire plastic BBs.

My question is; is it safe to be firing a .177 air rifle, loaded with plastic BBs, in an air soft match? The one rifle I was looking at claimed to fire at around 495 fps.
