    Daystate Daystate Alpha Wolf Smart power adjustment

    Here are the % in power mode set from the factory on the Smart Wolf. There isn't much change shooting now as the % would lead you to believe. BUT I have found out, you can add % and change the % dwell and voltage similar to advanced mode. So you can put in a 73% or a 82%. The % isn't REALLY a %...

    ATN X-Sight 5: Why Has Thou Forsaken Me?

    The RAV has been a problem for years with their digital scopes. Rimfire, let alone a air rifle doesn't usually have enough recoil to activate RAV. Mount it on anything bigger and it will work as intended.

    Daystate Daystate Alpha Wolf Smart power adjustment

    No problem. I was told to set reg. pressure 5 or so above the minimum, then tweek dwell and voltage from there. Dwell is how long the valve stays open and voltage is how hard the valve is hit/ air used. Now your work begins.. Its a really dark and deep rabbit hole, and everyone has an opinion on...

    Daystate Daystate Alpha Wolf Smart power adjustment

    My plan is to set mine at the velocity I want at 85%. Then I can tweek up or down according to changes throughout a shooting day. You can also set the advanced settings, to match what the factory setting are to get you started, I can send you a few pics of those if you want, FAC .22. Then you...

    Strange Hawke issue.

    That was more true years ago before CNC machined rings were being made. I check my rings after mounting them to my rails and haven't had an alignment issue or had to lap them in a long time.

    Strange Hawke issue.

    EXACTLY, I had a Vortex Golden Eagle that wasn't working correctly. Sent it in, and come to find out I had tightened the rings to tight...Vortex replaced the scope, told me what I had done, bought a torque wrench and have never had another issue. But I know I have been overtightening them for...

    Daystate Daystate Alpha Wolf Smart power adjustment

    Yes it has all the advanced features you can change, just no factory preloaded settings. But if I understood what I was told, the smart firmware is barrel length and caliber specific. I dont know why, but that what I was told, as to why it's like that...I have no idea, just relaying what those...
