What pellet does your Leshiy like best?

[mmahoney]

I'm curious about the findings of other Leshiy owners out there. What pellet is the most accurate in your barrel? Which barrel and what velocity are you shooting it at?

Only ever shot jsb 18’s. shooting them at 860 FPS.

I only have 3 barrels for now:
.177 250mm ... JSB 10.34 gr ... 830 fps
.22 250mm ... JSB 15.89 gr ... 790 fps
.25 350mm ... JSB 25.39 gr ... 760 fps
Kenny,

I've only shot the JSB 25.39's out of my 250mm, and they are way accurate.
18 shots at 740fps with Huma set at 110.

Thanks for the replies guys. I have a shorter 250mm .22 barrel currently installed and shooting at 15 FPE. Every PCP I've owned has loved JSB or Air Arms diabolo pellets the best and I expected the Leshiy to as well. I have 25+ tins of different pellets that I enjoy testing in my new rifles just in case. I have been suprised to find the my barrel likes the H&N Hunter Extreme pellets the best. Frankly, this makes NO SENSE to me. The hollowpoint shape of the pellet is far less efficient then the diabolo shape. I've tested with a sample size of 200 shots each against JSB 15.89 grain, 18.1 gr., and 13.43 grain. The second best pellet is the much lighter JSB RS. Third being the very light Predator GTO.

I haven't upped the velocity in my testing as this is mainly a collared-dove pesting rifle out to 30 yards. Collared-doves don't take much to drop.

Are the Leshiy barrels made by Lothar Walther or does Ed get produced in Russia?
I'm sure the Gen 1’s were LW barrels ?

I have been using the 250mm & 350mm barrels in .22 caliber ~ AA Fields 16gr or JSB 15.89gr (both 5.52mm), perform very well.
