Mawders 595 Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 No! They are not the same. Do what si says and you will see for yourself. 1 Quote Link to post
Craig Fosse 286 Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Yep defiantly not the same, and AA field group alot better in my s200 than jsb, I'm staring at the two of them right now Quote Link to post
barrywhite 282 Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 very close but one tin of aa field will differ from another tin of aa field .so your gun may shoot a tin of jsb better than tin of aa field or viceversa .so if there are no aa field I would use jsb no problem Quote Link to post

A1WOC 212 Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 A very, very reputable source told me AA Field pellets are a better, cleaner and more consistent pellet than JSB Exact. The reason being they both come from the same die press but JSB are the first ones through the press, and in effect warming up the machinery for smooth running and then re-branded as Air Arm Field. I have no reason to doubt this information that was explained to me by such a renowned gunsmith; however, the fact is, from personal experience I find JSB’s a better pellet for my 97kt and also my HW100kt than AA Field.
