AEA Branded Pellets?
- Thread starter BBGunn
- Start date
Just you just hate it?? Almost everything comes from China or made in China. It's economics, cheap labor, don't have to pay for benefits, long - long labor hrs. and worker abuse. That why we can still pay less for product we like. You couldn't get away with that here in America. That same $11.99 JTS tin would cost us if made here, somewhere between $21- $30 when you bake in cost of manufacturing and labor and benefits. Some things are better off outsourced around the world but not everything and we should be selective. Most of what China makes is inferior. Exceptions are where American oversight and quality matter for certain products. I prefer to buy all American made but what choice do we have? The bottom line is profit. We all know that right?

This has been reiterated in many threads. Global economy….. and China does make good stuff just not all their stuff

That is not an AEA website it's a Wolfiek group website they look like a reseller of sorts from Spain that represents several airgun brands and have a website for each of those brands.
The site that you pasted the image directly from , they are talking about edgun pellets ( definitely made by jsb JSB ) and also a couple styles of the JSB brand pellets. There are no AEA branded pellets on the site. That website was set up before the AEA pellets where introduced to the market. AEA pellets are definitely not made by JSB.

Thank you for clearing that up. I stand corrected.That is not an AEA website it's a Wolfiek group website they look like a reseller of sorts from Spain that represents several airgun brands and have a website for each of those brands.

If you read closely it reads JBS not JSB. It you also ask Joe from predator international that imports all JSB pellets and others from the Czech Republic he said JSB have nothing to do with the AEA pellets. As it stands I don’t know who JBS is or if it was a miss print.

I can tell you that the AEA 33.9 pellets work, and work exceptionally well in my .25 JSAR Raptor.

Looking to try these and wanted to see if anyone had any luck with their FX 25 cal? Which liner and speed?

I just received AEA 45 and 50gr. .30 pellets, shot a few groups just minutes ago (storms moving in!) these are the groups at 66yds (All I can get with the time I had) shot the 50’s out of a FX barrel and as of now not impressed! Lots of vertical which I should be able to tune out hopefully? 895fps shot the best of four groups of 7 shots each

I have JSBs currently but always up for trying new stuff. So seeing if these are worth a go.

I have used them recently and my Avenge X 25CAL Tac really didn't like em as much. I always zero at 30 yards and tac after tac on. JTS are close, but not as accurate or tight as JSB and FX. I used 3 different grains i.e 25.3, 29.5 and the 33.9. The 29.5 seemed a bit more accurate. I have not tuned my X yet. She was already dead on out of the box. Based on my needs and the given terrain (heavy brush, wooded with sparse and random open areas) where I serve as a sentinel against critters 50 yards in my furthest clear outer range from the house on average. I have dropped critter as far as 67 yards with JSB 25.9 Exact. It did like the JTS. (shot tight) but I did not like the tight fit as you chamber the round. The JTS seem like a bargain, but tins are in 150 counts. $9.99 - $12.99. Multiply by 2 and now you are paying same amount for those as JSB's. I will always choose the JSB's. It's proven to me in my own gun that it is the right match. The next closest pellet would be FX. Turns out they are made by JSB for FX. I still have left over AEA and JTS I need to dispatch and just stick with JSB/FX. I am not saying they are bad, just saying for me and my gun those pellets can't unseat the JSB/FX. Maybe others may have better results, but I am more than satisfied.

I would say if the pellets come from china, they will be made in the same plant and just rebanded. Much like JSB/FX/AA are made in the same place, just different dies.

For those that missed it in post #3 courtesy of @Florida_Man. There’s no need to speculate any further.
According to the info in the above photo it appears as if “JBS” is a typo and JSB makes AEA pellets.

@manabeknives Could be. Since posting i’ve been looking for another source and haven’t found one. Have you?
I haven’t watched this video yet

i have tried, but came up with dead ends
i do not know if AEA and SPA are related? followed that but no luck (SPA = chinese airgun brand..not Southern Percision Airguns)
The reason i said about Wolfiek was because when i looked at their sight selling the AEA rifles ..they were not selling any of their pellets. The only one's displayed for sale were the JSB's. If they are selling only JSB pellets, then their discription makes sense.
i sent an email a while ago...no response from AEA

@Centercut Y’all may be correct. I haven’t found any other information. I believe that I spoke too soon.
