- The blue-tailed bee-eater (Merops philippinus) is a near passerine bird in the bee-eater family Meropidae. It is widely distributed across South and Southeast Asia where many populations are strongly migratory, and seen seasonally in many parts but breeding colonially in small areas across their range, mostly in river valleys, where the nest by tunneling into loamy sand banks.

- I am definitely curious about slugs in the Lelya. I was thinking about getting some myself for my .22 Lelya. Seems that the R5M is great with them in .177. There is a thread floating about the forum about it. For the most part they are the same airgun as far as I know. Just dressed different and the R5M has a longer barrel.I am definitely curious about slugs in the Lelya. I was thinking about getting some myself for my .22 Lelya.

Just dressed different and the R5M has a longer barrel.I had a .22 R5M long which loved slugsWell, having spent the last couple of weeks focussed on getting my new Lelya (22 cal) setup for my fall grouse / turkey hunt, I can tell you that out of the box – the Lelya did not like (.217) NSA 21gr, 23gr (.217 & .218), 27gr, 30gr, 33gr nor 24gr Varmint Knockers. The barrel just isn't right for any of them. Groups were 2-3' at 50m and around 3-6' at 100m. I haven't tried any MP / NOE / other cast ammo though, so who knows.With that said – there is a bright side to my build that really made me happy. It LOVES the JSB Monster (RD) pellets! I was able to turn mine (Huma regulated) down for 40 shots per fill. ANYTHING inside 160m is dinner. I'm serious, offhand, prone, it was phenomenal to test today. It was like my steel targets were fire and the pellets were little heat seeking missiles, I had an absolutely blast shooting today ?My goal was something accurate for hunting to 150m. The 0.054 BC for me is a sufficient compromise, at least for now / my upcoming hunt. In retrospect, I was hopeful that my 380mm Crown would have shot these RDs well it didn't), but now I finally have a small rig that can handle them ?Well, having spent the last couple of weeks focussed on getting my new Lelya (22 cal) setup for my fall grouse / turkey hunt, I can tell you that out of the box - the Lelya did not like (.217) NSA 21gr, 23gr (.217 & .218), 27gr, 30gr, 33gr nor 24gr Varmint Knockers.

Is it 160 meters or feet ?

What speed are you shooting the RD Monsters?I shot them from 900fps down to 815, then back up to 840fps (where I'm keeping it for both shot count and for alignment with my scope reticle's sub-tensions lol)@airgunfans lol feet? No, meters!@bluetail – indeed. It's a blast to shoot!- This reply was modified 11 months ago by mtnGhost.

No, meters!@bluetail - indeed. It's a blast to shoot!I tested some of Nielsen's new little high speed press made 23 grainers today with my Lelya. To my surprise, these were deadly accurate out to at least 175m with a light crosswind.My Huma regulator was only set to 127.5bar and I did not want to open up the air tube with all of the dust. I turned the HST down to the high point of the power 'knee' for an 841fps average (840-842 / 39 shots). My LabRadar wasn't providing reliable data today, but I would conservatively say the BC was 0.074 or so from muzzle to 35m (I primarily used my EdGun chrono for tuning).As far as groups went – they were not hole in hole (except for my 35m zero), but they were grouping 1.5-2' at 100m, 150m, and 2-3' at 175m. Some of that was wind and parallax from my 1-8 scope, but they're accurate enough that I would use them for hunting grouse and turkeys.I'm actually more hopeful for these new 24.something grain cup back slugs. I ordered 4 boxes to test out with my Lelya and Crown(s).- This reply was modified 11 months ago by mtnGhost.

I used a couple of different sizes, but I foudn that the inner diameter isn't too critical. As long as it can slip on, it should be good. You want to use around 2mm thickness to push the two factory o-rings down though. I want to say either 19×2 or 20×2 was what seemed to work best out of the few that I tried.Pickzilla
