AEA Branded Pellets?
- Thread starter BBGunn
- Start date
I read a review of AEA airguns on AirGun101.com that was pretty comprehensive. No mention of AEA pellets, but it said AEA airguns on made in South Korea. Not sure how friendly South Korea is with China regarding trade, so I can see AEA not having JTS make pellets for them. Very possible that AEA pellets are made in South Korea. I'm not saying it is certain, but there is also a pretty good chance AEA pellets are not made in China.

I know you are trying to help, But that information on that site is inaccurate. If you look further, they don't even sell those pellets on the site, only the JSB's

I also have both. And yes, the waists between the skirt and the head are different. AEA pellets have a more pronounced, taller waist. JTS and AEA pellets of similar stated weights do not come from the same die. No idea who is making AEA pellets, but they are visually different from JTS at the waist.

on the .22s both aea and jts weigh the same ...18.3
head size does seem the same as well however i didnt get 5.52
I’m not sure I’m measuring head size correctly.

Here are 25.4’s AEA on right and JTS on the left. I did not measure them, but visually they appear to be the same.

Maybe its My eyes, or the angle of the picture, But the one on the right look as though the Skirt is on a sharper angle? But My Eyes are 67 1/2 years old. lol

Well that goes to show me weights and measurements aren't everything . Thanks for pointing out the waists they are definitely different in the .22 18.1gr . I have all the other wights in .22 but haven't taken a close enough look at those yet either. But I am 99% sure the .177 10.3s ( which I can not stop shooting) are exactly the same. Enough babbling here are some pics .22 JTS on the left . Waist is different and it looks like the AEA may have a slightly thicker skirt.
And .177 10.3 JTS on the left

My example pair measured almost identically, difference was small enough to possibly be user error, or individual differences.

But they look different. They have a different looking waist. They can't be made from the same die or they would look identical.
