BB rifles and BB guns are neither accurate or powerful. Basically because of the design of the barrel. Most BB guns use a smooth bore barrel. Where as pellet rifles use a rifled bore barrel. It has grooves that make the pellet spin and fly straighter. BB's tumble when fired out of the barrel. BB guns can injure you but never attain the accuracy, power or speed of a pellet rifle.
The best BB rifle I know of (NOT Pellet only rifle) is the Daisy 880. It is capable of firing both BB and single shot Pellets.

Could you use Copperhead BBS in the Crosman Phantom?
This would be a BIG mistake if you used BB'S in the Phantom. The Phantom is a pellet rifle not a BB rifle. The barrel of the rifle is a "Rifled barrel" meaning it has grooves that make the pellet spin as it's fired out of the rifle. BB's are hard and will destroy the rifling in the barrel. Making it not as accurate. BB guns and BB rifles usually are smooth bore like a straw and BB's have not effect on the barrel. BB guns are a lot less accurate that Pellet guns. Pellets spin when shot, BB's tumble when fired, this is why they are less accurate.
