Six of one, half dozen of the other.

I've had both of them, Fulton and Bearing Buddies. I can't tell the
difference except for the packaging. I've never had a problem with
either.

I suspect they are made by the same company and marketed seperate.
I've gone over them, compared side-by-each, measured and even took
both apart - there is no difference.

Just don't overfill them.


BBs are SS. Fultons are plated pot metal. Price being equal, I'd go with BB.
