Leshiy Love – Pellet testing and Hunting
I’ve fired a couple hundred shots through it now, and I am getting much more used to the small size and light weight. I drove the golf cart around the ranch all day today, and the little Leshiy was just kinda bouncing around next to me on the seat. The gun is so compact, and tough! It’s so easy to just grab it up, and point and shoot. I nailed two squirrels today. Each from about 40 yards.
I didn’t like the trigger when I got the gun, but after some real world use, I have decided that it’s actually very good. Maybe it’s breaking in?? The travel is VERY smooth, like butter, and it breaks clean. It’s a great hunting trigger, which is exactly what this gun is intended for. The Leshiy was not designed to sit on bags and punch paper.
Speaking of breaking in, the regulator has settled down a little bit. The 15.9 grain JSB’s are now flying at 790 fps. (originally 810)
I tested a few different pellets, and sadly the Predator Polymags are not very good with my gun. Polymags work really well in my other guns, and I was so hopeful they would work in the Leshiy, but that’s simply not the case.. This picture shows the JSB 15’s above the Polymags. 8 shot groups. 25 yards.
Both the 15 and 18 grain JSB’s work the best. 15.9’s fly at 790 fps, and the 18’s leave the barrel at 750 fps.

I am very curious to see the shot string.. that’s way more shots per fill than I thought was possible.
Had time to play around today with Leshiy
.22 Accupell 14.3 grn over the chrony filled to 300 bar pressure got 46 shots down to 90 bar never recorded shot string but average worked out at 18.5 ft lbs still with air in the tank very impressive.
I printed on cardstock.
But, Polymags are notorious for punching super clean holes on any type of target… even Squirrels :winkn:
Do you print your targets on recycled paper? Your pellet holes are so clean looking without any tears. It’s real easy to measure CTC.
It’s 250mm barrel.
350mm or 250mm barrel ?
I switched from 22 to 177 today and sight in in three shots. It is so accurate, one hole group at 35 yards at 750 fps, quiet as well.
Is it possible to get the pelletpen for .25 caliber?
You learn something new every day… that Pellet Pen looks great 🙂
I can get 20 shots from 250 bar down to 110 bar.
The Pellet Pen works great for Leshiy.

Nice weather there and a lot of fun with your Leshiy and golf cart.
How many shots you can get for jsb 16 g at 790 fps ? and how do you store pellets around?
