Overview
The AEA HP SS is a compact bolt-action pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) big-bore air rifle produced by AEA Precision. Fed from a detachable magazine and charged from an onboard 300cc air tank rated to 250 bar, the .35 caliber version launches 81-grain slugs at roughly 830 fps for use in airgun hunting and pest control. The 'SS' (short and slim) platform pairs a shrouded 13-inch barrel with a dovetail optics rail and a folding-stock chassis, making it a lightweight, powerful entry in AEA's high-power air rifle lineup.
