    Daystate Black Wolf

    When you lower the regular to 130 bar, how many shots are you getting from 250 bar fill to 200 bar fill? I noticed when the regulator is set at 145 bar stock from AOA, my air full drops from 250 bar fill to 200 bar fill in only 11 shots ( one magazine)

    Daystate Black Wolf

    First time taking my BW to the range today to get it sighted. Small orange target is sighted at 25 yards. Top 2 splatter targets and the diamond paper target at the bottom left are 50 yard groups. For the 25 yards sighters groups, I played with no moderator, Sumo Donnyfl, and Donnyfl Tatsu...

    Rookie Mistakes?

    Bought a crosman 1322 to mod. Spent about $375 on parts on a $50 dollar gun. It was fun at the time but thought to myself, I could've bought a marauder pistol pcp, which was all the rage at that time because of it's modding potential and after market parts. And so I bought one...and spent equal...

    What Paper Target Did You Shoot Today

    I really like this one, is this custom made or it can be bought online? I don't see it anywhere.

    NEW for 2025 Athlon Rangecraft Chronograph

    Anybody got their hands on one yet? Looking to upgrade from my airchrony, which is PIA at the range as I can only focus on shooting through that tiny box to get the pellet speed and not shoot at the target at the same time. Don't want to spend on a Garmin if I can help it.

    What did you order / receive airgun related today? Thread

    Ordered rifle case from Pelican website, it says delivery on 4/12, the day came and went with no delivery. Then Fedex updated to 4/14, which is today. Well...the package is still over 2 hours away at another city with no updates to delivery date. I should've ordered from Amazon, they have thus...

    Harbor Freight Apache Rifle Case $99 - Sale ends 4/14/2025

    Spray with plastidip works great. I sprayed 3 cans of that stuff on my plano 36", still holding up great. But getting replacement foam for the apache will be a challenge, though I'm looking into the Magpul DAKA Grid Gun Case Organizer Foam systems now, more reusable.

    Daystate Daystate Blackwolf

    Just wondering out loud, what kind of barrel the BW comes with. All the website states it's a LW barrel, but is it a "match grade barrel"? This is my first Daystate, so don't really know what to expect. It would be great if someone can enlighten me.

    Daystate Daystate Blackwolf

    Going to try JSB 25 grain variety first and hoping it would do well with that pellet since I like to shoot long range. By the way, did you get a blue spring along with your package? My research shows that's for .22 caliber. I wonder if that is extra and what color is the spring thats inside...

    Daystate Daystate Blackwolf

    Here is my Black Wolf in .22 with 23" barrel. Not yet sighted but dry fired a couple of times. This puppy is loud without a moderator, and doesn't help much with a Donnyfl Sumo. This is definitely a range only gun. The gun feels high quality in the hands, especially with the full weight of the...

    Daystate Black Wolf

    I wouldn't go down the rabbit hole of polishing the barrel just yet. I would say that is the very very very last resort. I would check for various pellet type / weight and pellet speed first. The down side of barrel polish that many don't mention is it takes a lot more shots to season the...

    Daystate Black Wolf

    Definitely needs to test more ammo type. I believe AOA only test at their indoor 20 yard range, which is not enough distance to see best ammo for the rifle. The speed of the pellets matters as well, if too fast it'll start to spiral which changes the point of impact each time. Looking at your 25...

    Balistas?

    What I like about Balistas website is they indicate how many they have in stock. But regarding the price, Krale is still cheaper though I haven't purchase from them yet.

    Taipan New Taipan Vet 2, .22, long

    I asked Taipan regarding barrel twist rate. The 550mm barrel is 1:17.7, which is odd because they stated on their website that the barrel have a special twist rate designed for slugs. But the twist rate seems pretty common, at least on my guns with CZ barrel. Whichever is the case, I don't shoot...
