I was shooting groups at 50y with the .22 JTS and AEA 25.4 pellets . The AEAs did better in my Maverick. Good enough to order 5 more tins .

Good question!
All our pellets were designed by Bob Sterne (Rsterne) and then molded and tested by myself and others. We purchased high end pellet making machines and have them in our China facility where they are now currently running non-stop. These are high end pellets and will shoot as good or better than JSB of the same design and weight. Thats a lot to say as JSB is the Gold Standard but we will let the pellets do the talking. Reviewers and pro shooters now have them in hand and reviews have all been excellent so far. Tom Gaylord/Rick Shooter1721/ Hajimoto etc. all have had excellent success. The proof will be in the pudding as they say. Full line of pellets coming out this year and slug line next year..."

Yes they are better for small groups. The JTS replaced the MRDs on 2 of pcps . Then the AEAs replaced the JTS on both .

Based on what I experienced last weekend, I'll be trying the AEAs for some time to see how it goes long tern.

Thank you.
Well I can confirm excellent performance as compared to their JTS and JSB competition.
A new era where Chinese pellets are challenging and surpassing the established leaders.
Proof is in the pudding. These aea pellets are excellent
Consider though these are new company new dies vs old company older dies.
I’d be curious to see how the aea and jts dies do over time and what is their factory renewal rate.

Top Pic is 10 shots and bottom is 5 shots groups. Both shot at 100 yards with .25" 33.9 gr AEA. Jsb do not do that for me.

Got a feeling the shooter and rifle have something to do with that.
Damn amazing groups

Thank you for the kind words. I also meant to type AEA pellets. The JTS did not do bad either, just not as good as AEA. I say about as good as JSB.
Below is my rig. She gave me some minor teathing issues, but now she can shoot well!

Let me end this conjecture. I give a definite answer.
1: AEA and JTS pellets all made in China. AEA's working group designed and tested all types of pellets and slug. so they have much bigger products line. They want give users familiar user experience and innovation. So some of the AEA pellet have same weight as JSB and HN . Only with slightly different shapes. But some pellets and slug is totally unique. This also provides that design and testing all comes from AEA themselves.
2: The pellet design of JTS comes from the JTS , because factory is only OEM pellet for JTS. And AEA have a whole products line. So JTS slug will made by other Chinese factory. JTS Pellet and slug not from same factory.
3: Because JTS not built a complete products line. So JTS was launched before AEA. Some of type pellet of them are same weights but made by two different sets of production molds, so they are very similar but not totally same as each other, just with very very very small differences and completely different detection systems.
