AEA Precision Center Punch – lightweight pellets for precision shooting

These Center Punch pellets from AEA Precision, with their 4.5mm caliber and 8.18 grain weight, are ideal for shooters who value consistent performance. The domed pellet shape ensures stable flight, making these pellets suitable for both break barrel and pump-action air rifles up to approximately 50 metres. With 500 pieces per pack, you have ample ammunition for extended shooting sessions.

Our experience from the Shogun team

The AEA Center Punch pellets impressed us with their consistent weight distribution and uniform shape. When used in break barrel air rifles with 25-30 joules, these projectiles remain stable up to 50 metres, with the domed shape providing predictable flight behaviour. The relatively light weight of 8.18 grain makes them responsive and fast, perfect for situations where you need a flat pellet trajectory.

Technical features in practice

With a 4.5mm / .177 caliber and 8.18 grain weight, these pellets are in the lighter segment. The domed pellet shape offers the best balance between penetration and stability – the projectile cuts efficiently through the air without the drawbacks of a pointed design. The packaging contains 500 pieces, meaning one box will last you a long time. Testing different grains in your air rifle is always worthwhile, and with a chronograph you can immediately see the energy output of this specific combination.

Who is this air rifle ammunition suitable for?

These pellets are perfect for recreational shooters who enjoy shooting at paper targets or want to refine their technique. The combination of 4.5mm caliber and 8.18 grain makes them particularly suitable for break barrel and pump-action air rifles, but they also perform well in lighter PCP systems. Precision enthusiasts shooting within 50 metres will appreciate the predictable performance.
