I’ve got the Leshiy tuned perfectly for what I consider the ultimate backyard friendly paper and pest punching setup. Took a page out of the UK boys forced setups and found a way to do it with .25 JSB kings. Why? Well, that’s a long answer, but the net of it is I live in an urban environment where 99% of what I shoot is under 30 yards. I need to shoot as quiet as possible, but not at the expense of a clean kill. The next reason is passthrough. Airguns are not toys. I think we grossly under estimate the dangers of pass through.
As you see with all my videos, I use the rocks, or elevated position and ground to stop it. While I’ve not totally solved this issue... I think I’ve mitigated it to a comfortable space.
The reality for me, and I think many of us, is that 30ft/lbs is just not needed for pest control.. at least rats, Chipmunks, etc
If if you’re interested in how I accomplished this with the Leshiy and hybrid HUMA reg setup... read here: https://www.edgunleshiy.com/blog/2018/9/11/revisiting-backyard-friendly-airgun-tuning/
the net of it:
- EDgun Leshiy 280mm barrel (custom)
- DonnyFL Emporer v2
- HUMA sub 12ft/lb small plenum, valve/ valve return spring, and lighter hammer spring
- normal HUMA reg
- 25gr JSB Kings, 557fps, ~17 ft/lbs
proof is in the pudding. Here’s what I consider the toughest pound for pound animal I shoot... the squirrel. I’ve done no no altering of sound or sound effects so you can hear it.
