So, we all like to talk about guns that we own and to see how others use and have theirs set up. I have a .177 and use it mostly for plinking and pesting out to about 60 yards but will be adding a .22 barrel in the future. For now the .177 does the trick. Also have not seen any reason to buy a Huma reg because the stock reg is very consistent but I might when I convert to .22 for the extra shot count. The only changes I've made is to add the trigger plunger screw and switch to a Wika gauge. Here is my goblin:

.177 Leshiy w/ Leupold VX Freedom 3-9x33 EFR (w/ alumina flip caps), UTG Pro rings, Vortex lo pro bubble level and and Atlas bi-pod.

Share your Leshiy set ups!!! I'm particularly interested in .22 and if anybody runs theirs at close to 30fpe with the 350mm barrel?

these are two groups at 60 meters(65 yards) with leshiy 250mm barrel .22 cal from a caldwell 7 rest. first group is 7 shots and second 5. my problem is too little weight of the gun and it moves horizontally. and i was not sitting. just standing and gun was on the rest. if i sit, with good caldwell pillows i am sure results will be much better.

Nice groups. Thanks for sharing. 

Agreed on the hunting, that’s what I want it for, however, a nice group is indicative of accuracy. Minute of Squirrel is what I’m after.

For me the sole purpose of the Leshiy is to be ultralight & compact. Its great for hiking & stalking, but also makes a good truck gun. I'm shooting the .22 18g JSB pellets at 775 for 20 shots. The string below only shows 18 shots because at the time I was only filling to 220b.

I've only shot mine out to 50y & it is very accurate. It's not a bench gun. If you're carrying it around I'd recommend a small vertical foregrip. If you neeeeed a bipod... go for something compact & lightweight to compliment the gun.

I think this is why you don't see too many people posting groups with their Leshiy. Mine is very accurate IMO, I have shot .5" at 50 yards a couple times when the stars aligned but I can consistently get 1" at 50. Def. a solid short to mid range hunter and if you miss you can always beat your prey to death with it😄 When I get a chance I will shoot a few groups at 50 yards and take pics to share.



I have noticed the same thing as tsakula, my gun jumps to the left a bit when I take the shot but it doesn't seem to hurt accuracy too much (maybe I'm wrong?). Guessing the gun would jump a little more at higher power.

It is a hunting rifle giving me a lot of fun. I set to 11,5 ft-lb so shooting ~40 yards is a max but it is pretty accurate to me at these distances. I bought JSB Jumbo RS to see how it performs and I took a few shots at 25m (27,5y) to see how it groups. Here are the results - two shots in upper left circle, made a few clicks to the right and placed another three shots. Shooting position far from stable... I think it groups fine because of low recoil with such low energy setting.
