I like your way of thinking...
did you just say new plenum or mod the existing?
I would make a new plenum larger OD vs longer btw

Well that was a bust, picked up the Kral barrel and it’s too short. I received a 390mm rather than 530 mm . Looks like that project is goin to have to wait as there are no .25 can barrels to be had in Canada. It’s not needed anyway. This rifle is just about perfect as received.

Hi yes we made a complete new plenum chamber with a thick section to accept the gauge as we didn't think the standard was thick enough to drill and tap for it
For us sub 12 users in the UK the plenum on the leshiy is more then large enough in the standard form, but i agree if i was going to make a larger one it would be OD rather than length

Carlo (Monte on AGN) was nice enough to draw an .stl file from my drawing and offer it up here, if you like it throw him an accuracy point. Hell of a guy, this has the shoulder on it and center hole is 8mm. (so far blue loctite is keeping the liner in place) It wouldn't hurt to support the liner but I wanted one that works for .22-.30. Might need a bit of sanding here or there I haven't gotten my hands on the printed one yet.

Hello everyone, I’m a new member for the forum. It’s very good to see Robert Ford and know that he has exelent accuracy. I’ve also been using fx liners for Leshiy 2 for long time

Robert wrote to me that the barrel and Maud arrived successfully and quickly. but did not share the results of the shots. I use a .25 400mm long barrel with my own design slugs
this shape of the slug allows it to be kept in the journal. the implementation of the liner fixation was done as follows, the liner was shortened to 410 mm. bushings were glued on the muzzle and the breech, and the carbon thread was wound, after which the grinding and slot of the groove for the positioning ring was performed

Nice! Reminds me of a proof research barrel.

It’s good to see you here my friend. Both of the barrels you made for me perform excellent the .30 STX and the .25 Polygonal
. You are very talented and skilled.Robert

Nice set of tooling you have there.
Well, after reading and re reading this thread. I finally let curiosity get the better of me. I have a FX Elite .25 carbine barrel that I tried. I was going from 967fps to 1035fps on Cuda 31s with no other changes. It works but is definitely not a finished product. The breech is pretty much just floating out there. I would like to get a Teflon bushing to fill in the space and smooth things out.

Sorry I'm a new member and can't reply to those in private messages. it is very important to choose the optimal settings and the bullet, even with an ideal barrel you can get poor accuracy

thanks, but this is not specifically my job. I was only an ideological inspirer, all the work was done by another person, I do not have a machine park and it is easier for me to pay and explain how this should be done. There are a lot of shooting results on the link below, you can read it on the Ru forum edgun starting from the 6th page. there are many ideas for fx, first need to get hold of it

Yeah you called it, not consistent. Maybe it's clipping the edge of the liner but it isn't accurate
I put in the puck with the smaller maybe 3mm hole to get the max shots so it's only shooting around 700fps with 18gr but even so it should be grouping.Oh well was worth a try.
*Single loading gives full accuracy, so it's either clipping or doesn't like the rifling engagement.

Well Nathan , nothing ventured , nothing gained as they say. I received the Kral barrel in the right length today. If I can get it to shoot I’ll let you know. Last time I played with a Kral barrel it seemed very accurate it was in .22 mind you.

Well the second barrel ended up being in the wrong caliber . I sent it back and finally got the right caliber and length. This barrel was not a Kral but I took a chance on a Milano/Kervan as it was the only thing in stock. To my surprise, the barrel was pretty good. I pushed a pellet through the bore and not one tight spot, I did give it a thorough cleaning but it wasn’t overly dirty. The OD was slightly bigger so I turned it down so that it was the same 13.89mm where it goes into the action and left the remainder blued. The leade was recut with a throat reamer from pacific tool and opens up at 2.5* removing the grooves just until the pellet sits flush in the barrel by dropping it in. I reworked the crown , made a 30mm shroud from carbon fiber tube and black delrin. Once in the gun first was to shoot over the chrony with a finished length of 460mm and gained close to 90fps with the JSB kings. I still need to test for accuracy at range but at ten yards prints a single hole for an entire magazine so that is promising. I’ll post some pics of the finished once I get a chance. Sure hope it performs as good as it like looks.

Nice! That's a promising result so far.
Geoff at sub12 airgunners made a v2 adapter piece with a smaller hole and had much better results. I have a few of these on the way to try. Really want it to work with my FX barrels as I have .22, .25 and .30 and know they shoot great.

And the V2 works!
This is 45y mix of me and my friend shooting the pellet liner B in the leshiy .25
Lower hole is zeroing, 5 shots at 45y
Nice work Geoff super happy about this.

This is great news! I look forward to your testing at farther distances. This is a much cheaper option to buying alpha barrels specific to the leshiy!
