Strange enough to get me thinking about it.

The typical BB is approximately 4.5 mm in diameter. In passing through
cardboard it may not punch a perfectly clear hole, with the ragged edges of
the cardboard collapsing back towards the center. A more circular hole may
be possible if a lead pellet with a flat nose is used, though there may be
some deformation of the pellet after passing through the first
cardboard/film layer. The idea is just crazy enough to warrant some testing
and sounds like a fine excuse to combine two hobbies.
