No!

Using a heavier bb only reduces the fps of the bb. It does not reduce the impact energy.

Getting your level 2 does not instantly give you the right to shoot at 500fps. It gives your the permission to use a 500fps weapon if and only if the field owner allows it, the host allows it and if you are not veto'd at the field by your peers!

It might seem more compact but now you need to carry several CO2 canisters onto the field then keep track of and carry out the empties. They can get noisy too clanging around in your pockets.
