Jel-e wyre has been my favourite hooklink material(tungsten loaded close second), since the start of time, with it being a little harder to get, I actually picked up a roll of the pb products jelly wire in the shop and it seems to be the exact same stuff.
Does anyone know if they are the same?

do you not order direct from Atomic? Always seem to have stock.
I have heard it's pretty much the same but never seen them side by side to compare. I rate the Atomic stuff very highly, used it for years now, although have played with the ESP semi stiff recently but honestly not as impressed.

Definitely not the same, the Atomic version is a soft coated hook link whilst PB has semi stiff coating.

Yeh its not same-- PB is stiffer, has a more plastic brown/shiney coating. Seems a bit more robust outer skin which I prefer.

Atomic was and is the best, coating is no where near as good on the PB version

I just get my jelly wire from eBay.
Only a quid postage, always in stock.

Has the atomic stuff stopped being made, or can any one point me to place that has it in stock.
