Very good pellets. Weight is on point, they are clean, no dings and dents. A few dollars more a tin is well worth the consistency you get. I don't buy anything else for pellets.I am ready to order some pellets,the AEA pellets cost more that the other pellets,just curious if users think they are worth the higher price.

You haven't mentioned what gun you are shooting. I have found the AEA and JTS pellets to be superior to other brands and very accurate in my rifles. Price and accuracy are relative to each of our wants and needs so only you can decide what is the best purchase for you. Take a look at Utah Airguns ( https://utahairguns.com/product-category/ammo/pellets/aea-pellets ) for a buy 5 get 1 free and reasonable shipping or PyramidAir ( https://www.pyramydair.com/ammo/air-gun-ammo/pellets ) for a buy 3 get 4th free and market rate on shipping.

I like these AEA Center Punch pellets VERY MUCH - for all the reasons mentioned above in earlier replies. I buy them from Utah Air when they have a free shipping day. Also, Utah Air doesn't charge me sales tax.

One thing to be aware of, these pellets tend to foul a barrel much quicker than when I used JSB. A cleaning routine is recommended to keep the best accuracy.I am ready to order some pellets,the AEA pellets cost more that the other pellets,just curious if users think they are worth the higher price.
They do have better consistency which can coincide with better accuracy, but you will still need to find the speed that works best in your rifle for best results

No, they are horrible, the pellets are the worst ever and their slugs, well what can I say. Do not buy them , if you have I'll do you a favor and take them off your hands for a small discount just to save you the grief.I am ready to order some pellets,the AEA pellets cost more that the other pellets,just curious if users think they are worth the higher price.
Ok I'm kidding, my Raptor and both of my Mavericks LOVE THEM. They like to go fast, at least in my guns. My Raptor .25 is 932fps. My Maverick .25 is close to the same. Easily 1 MOA at 100 yards, definitely one minute of ground squirrel. You can run, in the case of .25's either there slugs 30.2gr or pellets 33.9gr at the same settings.

Funny you should ask. YESTERDAY I was hunting with my Edgun R3 long,.22 slugger. I realized I had a tin of those that Centercut gave me a few weeks back so I tried them out (25.39gr?) Holy crap! They were shooting as straight & accurate as the preferred slugs that the Edgun LOVES (.217 Daystate Howlers or NSA .217)! Also tried Hades & Redesigned Monsters, they were OK but couldn't come close to the Center Punch!!! I was amazed at the accuracy & consistency. They shot as accurately as slugs and out to 125 yards! I'll try longer range next time.

I went through 2000 rounds and was very pleased, until I wasn't. I got a tin that shot all over the place. I got some JTS dead center's and they are just (if not more) as accurate as the AEA's were. For now I am sticking with the dead centers.I am ready to order some pellets,the AEA pellets cost more that the other pellets,just curious if users think they are worth the higher price.

The .25 EQ has turned in its best groups @ 50yds with the Centerpunch slugs. Very impressive!
I bought 4 tins from Utah on sale after that.

I used to drink the kool aid about how the JSB's were and shot them with less than smiley results from my RAW HM1000x. I got a tin of the AEA and the first magazine load was a visible improvement on paper at 50 meters and 75 and 100. Now I have a bunch of JSB's that just sit on the shelf and only use the AEA's. The LAB Radar and paper tell it all. They are clean and not beat up like the JSB's I used to sort out the bad JSB's, the AEA's are all good with quality.

Definitely same story. My first tin was shot through my dreamline tac .25 ... the 25.3 aea centerpunch. At 25-50 at least a 30% reduction in 10 shot group size. Compared to FX 25.4 which JSB made the dies for, but, usually arrive more uniform and clean. I completely gave up on JSB 25.39 and HMK2 in favor of the fx pellets. aea definitely leads the pack in. . 25 and .22

I was a jsb guy and have lots of them in 22 and 30. I just tried some 30 cal. Jts pellets and they are far more accurate than the jsb pellets In both my guns. Will pick up some 22 cal. For my raw when they go on sale either at pyramid or Utah.

I've recently been testing the AEA center punch 50,5 in .30, and it looks very promising. Compared to JSB the BC is a lot higher (0,060 vs 0,048). And probably because of the better BC the sound is reduced (probably due to better aerodynamic design): shooting the JSB .30 has a very wooooshy sound when flying, while the AEA fly silently.
