AEA Branded Pellets?

No . Almost AEA pellet and slug all designed by themselves. JTS pellet maybe designed by American company.
But there are 2-3 types of pellet between them that may have the same shape but these 2-3 type are produced by different molds.
I don't know who designed these 2-3 common shapes. But in fact, AEA now has 42 types of pellets and slugs. They are different from other JTS pellets and slugs . Only 2-3 are similar

My new DonnyFL moderator for the Maverick showed up and I needed to sight it in . What a difference in sound . I was using AEA 25.4s in .22 cal .
Targets were at 45y on the range finder and I was waiting for calm spots . It's good stuff. On a calm day they should do even better . One group is 5/16 and the other about 3/8s . The one hole out of the group is when I was still adjusting the scope . Otherwise the smallest group.

It truly is. I’ll say it’s a great feeling putting that pellet exactly where you want it. We all know that feeling. It’s opium

Squirrels get a pass from me, Iguanas do not …..Yah that and when you hit a squirel and you hear the hollow poping sound.

I use to see squirrels and think they were so cute Until one day they made a hole in my roof and trashed my attic, destroyed my canelopes, peaches, and pear trees. Yup, I have become Elmer Fudd now. " Shhhhh I'm going squiwel hunting...."Squirrels get a pass from me, Iguanas do not …..

I've been VERY HAPPY with the AEA's, they are slightly better in my Mavericks, Raptor and Sapsan than the JSB's, when I say slightly it's pretty darn small on observation no hard, data. That said, maybe I'll set up my Maverick Compact and run a side by side 30 yard test this afternoon as I wait for my King Cut Sirloin to cook. 10 shots each fully rested.

If you can, do a 50 yard test of 5 to 10 shot group. That is more representative for performance.

And here it is. About 2 seconds between shots 200 bar in bottle, 150 bar reg 1. 105.9 bar reg 2. Finished at 150 bar, basically a cold gun out of the case. Sitting for 3+ weeks. Started top right the top left then bottom right, split a 17 round mag top then bottom. 905fps. Image got rotated. The top is actually the right. Oh barrel is the 1:16 500mm with the CF liner, floating, Donny mod. Personal note: Anyone that says that FX Barrels shift POI should check THEIR gun and themselves.

I asked my neighbor is they'd open the kitchen window and their living room window, they declined. I can tell you that at 75 yards the results are the same. Hitting a 1.125 steel with boring regularity. In all seriousness, where I've got that distance is generally a hurricane strength breeze, it takes a special day for it to be calm. This is not the time of year, I could shoot down my street to 210 yards but.......you can guess the reaction I'd get. Ditto for me going across to the park by my house a lovely hill with kids for a backstop.

Sounds that you have it figured out. Keep on insisting with you neighbor, he might agree to let you shoot through his kitchen. As far as the kids in the park ask them politely if they can hold that yellow target you posted above their heads at around 75 yards. Over their heads should be safe enough. Out of respect for their parents make sure to let them know your intentions. It should all work out. Let us know how it goes. Can't wait to hear news. Take care!

Oh I'm sorry, I wasn't clear, there is a hill that makes a great backstop, there is a path that goes up around it, I attach targets to the kids bikes and scooters, quite a bit of fun but the parents seem to have an issue, weird huh? As for the neighbor, she keeps thinking I'm shooting at her, might have something to do with her costing me half a million dollars, that's another story though.
