EDgun Edgun Leshiy 2
- Thread starter Navnesen
- Start date
I can’t say for 100% because I have no gauge on the plenum / regulator - but it’s around 180 - I know this because the velocity begins to drop off at around 180 bar bottle pressure

I don't know for sure. The 9mm plenum has a different location for the gauge and I can't get it to read properly. From the readings I've gotten, I would guess 185-195.
I found the sweet spot by cranking it all the way up and then turning down a quarter turn at a time until I got to a consistent 8 shot fps. Took a while as I was using a compressor.
Side note - if anyone shoots off a large bottle with an edgun, I would love to know the setup.

How to set your plenum air pressure via EdgunWest video. Shows what you need, where to put it, and how...
Oh, and you don't have to have the Meazy, but you will need the adapter and some other air gauge measuring the air pressure the way you want to see it.

I have tried this several times but no luck.
Is anyone shooting off a larger bottle with a whip connected?

Can you add a stock extension to the 137 cc monster plenum like the smaller plenum setups had to gain a few inches in length of pull?

It worked for me (I used the Meazy air gauge). My 9mm Leshiy2 was changed to .22 cal and I used the method in the video to step the reg pressure down to 105 bar. Which still gives me 760-780fps for the .22 cal pellets and helps quieten the bark (it's still a bit loud) so I can shoot in the backyard without alarming the neighbors. I'm still trying to make it more quiet so I'm talking to STO and hopefully they can assist in a solution.

I am curious why you went with the 9mm plenum? Do you feel like extra volume is necessary for extra power and, if so, what is the upper limit with the regular size plenum?

Usually this: https://www.airgunsource.ca/air-venturi-mini-wingman-100-cu-in-pcp-tank.html
I also have a bigger tank from the same company, but we usually get enough air from the smaller one.
My Leshiy is running a 22 barrel at 350mm length. I have a few other configurations for it, but they're all either .22 or .30 cal. At the range my son consumes about as many pellets as I can stuff into magazines, so it's .22 at the range.
Sometimes I've put the tank in a little sling I've made, and have the tank on my back. If I was going to spend an afternoon walking around a large property shooting at everything I see, that's how I'd go. But I find it's far more than I need for day to day pesting.

I used a standard E.A.R plenum reg and was getting 800fps and pretty good mag count in 30 cal - I swapped for a monster plenum and can get the same projectile weight up to 915fps with similar mag count - it doesn’t sound like it but that extra 100fps is an extra 30% FPE power increase
