Description
AEA Center Punch .22 Caliber Pellets – 18,3 Grain Premium Airgun Ammunition
Precision Weight Control: Every pellet is manufactured to exacting specifications, with strict weight tolerances ensuring consistent ballistic performance. This meticulous quality control results in predictable trajectories and repeatable accuracy that competitive shooters and hunters can rely on.
Optimal Mass for .22 Caliber: The 18,3 grain weight represents an ideal balance in the .22 pellet spectrum – heavy enough to maintain energy at distance while light enough to achieve respectable velocities in most air rifles. This versatility makes them suitable for a wide range of shooting disciplines and power plants.
Superior Ballistic Coefficient: The combination of weight and aerodynamic design provides excellent resistance to wind drift and maintains velocity better than lighter alternatives. This translates to flatter trajectories and more predictable holdovers at extended ranges.
Versatile Applications
The AEA Center Punch .22 pellets excel in multiple shooting scenarios:
- Field Target Competition: Consistent accuracy for knocking down targets at varying distances
- Hunting: Effective terminal performance for small game and pest control
- Long-Range Plinking: Maintains stability and accuracy beyond 50 yards
- Benchrest Shooting: Tight groupings for precision paper punching

Compatibility & Performance Guidelines
The AEA Center Punch .22 pellets are engineered to perform optimally in air rifles generating 16-40 ft/lbs of muzzle energy. They demonstrate excellent results in:
- High-powered spring-piston rifles
- Gas ram systems
- Pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) rifles
- Regulated and unregulated PCP systems
For best results, we recommend velocities between 650-900 fps. This velocity range ensures optimal stabilization while maintaining sufficient energy for effective terminal performance at hunting distances.
Why Professional Shooters Choose AEA Center Punch
At BinTac Airguns, we’ve extensively tested these pellets in various conditions and rifles. The 18,3 grain Center Punch consistently outperforms competitors in several key areas:
Consistency: Shot-to-shot velocity variations are minimal due to uniform weight and dimensions, resulting in tighter groups and more predictable point of impact.
Penetration: The Center Punch design combined with the 18,3 grain weight delivers exceptional penetration, making these pellets particularly effective for pest control where pass-through shots are desired.
BC Retention: The aerodynamic profile maintains velocity better than traditional domed pellets, extending your effective range without sacrificing accuracy.
Storage Recommendations
Store your AEA Center Punch pellets in their original sealed tin to prevent oxidation and maintain dimensional consistency. Keep them in a temperature-stable environment away from moisture for optimal long-term performance.
