Veles = awesome
Hi all,
I have been drooling over the Veles for quite some time now and when I learned that my local supplier had a .22 in stock I grabbed a handfull of cash, jumped into my car and drove off to claim it.
As soon as I got home I put a few (10) pellets through the chrony with results between 241-242 m/s (791-794 fps) using the 15.89 grains JSB’s… absolutely awesome and the exact same velocity I reach with my .22 Lelya, even though that is with the heavier 18.13 grains JSB’s.
The grip feels great in the hand and I was quite surprised that I kept holding it in a cradle kind of position rather than with an extended arm… just felt great that way.
The only negative was that the moderator for some reason didn’t line up well and resulted in pellet clipping… so instead I put on my slightly larger Weihrauch moderator and the problem was solved.
Awesome gun… cant wait for hunting season to begin. This will be my shoot-rabbits-and-pheasants-out-the-window-gun
Still haven’t decided on which scope though 🙁

Can you comment on your Vortex scope on your R3? It has a 50 yd parallax but is it usable at closer range? I’m eyeing the 6-24×50 but that’s my only concern.
