Pricing seems in line with a custom shop hand producing each unit of high standard. Similar pricing to a larger manufacturer like FWB or Steyr.

Since when does shot count have anything to do with quality? The price of everything is going up. Shipping rates have gone thru the roof and the end consumer gets to pick up the tab. We have a choice. Buy it or don't buy it lol. At the end of the day business still needs to show a profit or close their doors.

If the power is reduced, the shot count goes up. Power increased, shot count goes down.
Tank size and quality of regulator dictates shot count - along with power settings, of course.

Look at the Umarex Hammer only gets 2 "good" shots maybe 3, but 4th is at a much lower vel.

Watched a video of that rifle taking down a full grown Eland in Africa - went maybe 40 yards. The
bullet ended up in the hide on the off side.

Would be no issue increasing shot count. Just increase the tank size/capacity. However the Leshy 2 is meant to be a compact tactical like hunter. The tank is in the stock which leaves little/no good options. Ed will be just fine if you don't buy one.

Best air rifle I’ve ever owned hands down. Build quality , accurate and light. Not to mention big power in a small package with semi auto. The only rifle of its kind available in Canada , for now. Yes the price is scary , you only live once and the smiles per trigger squeeze factor is right up there with almost anything that doesn’t include having clothes on.

Don’t forget to order the 350cc tank if you do get one . Sure it’s an extra couple hundred dollars more. But , in for a penny , in for a pound. Presently shooting 34gn MKII pellets at 780fps . With the bottle get 56 shots on the regulator.

You can fit a bigger bottle on these. I have the 350cc from Wes. It does cramp the pistol grip though. I also put a zero degree grip on it so my hand would fit better. There are quite a few parts available for them just need to do a little research. I got a used original smooth twist barrel and spun it up on the lathe to fit . With a barrel swap with no other changes went from 44 fpe to 61 fpe. These guns are absolute hammers but as you would imagine big power equals big air use.

Definitely looks the part. Serious piece of kit. Not sure I like the bottle placement. I think I would prefer a remote line like how the milsim guys do it in PB.

My .22 Leshiy2 arrived to my hands 990fps out of box, I lowered the speed to match the AA 18gr liking @ 900. I have full 72 shots at that speed before drops the Reg.
This Leshiy 2 is an addition to my FX Impact MK2 .25, both are gun range setups (no plinking no hunting), The Impact for 100 meter BR and the L2 for 22LR range silhouettes. Nothing will or can beat this combination.
