I vote performance, CUZ as i am locked to just 1 caliber and it being the smallest one, well i need as much performance as i can get.
And sadly i have to make do no matter what brand i am looking at, well at least if i also want to be able to take the heaviest slugs to the limit.

The 3600 USD / 25.000 DKkr price tag of a Delta wolf, even if it could do all i wanted, would sadly keep me away

I have enough electronics in my life that I don't want them on my guns. And I fear that someday soon the manufacturer's will make you have a subscription to use their systems, like the car manufacturers are doing. And stuff that talks to apps is neat, as long as the app developer updates their product and support you equipment.....
 
the more bells the more chance of something failing and will the replacement part be available , in stock and to the customer .
This line of thinking is currently prompted by one single button / function failing in my truck (cruse control on/off button . Estimate $500 labor and $200 to replace ALL the buttons/ one unit , associated with the failed button .

Same was true with my peterbilt truck at work. One button on the steering wheel didn’t work and the company replaced the whole panel / cluster of buttons.
 
The Delta Wolf Electronics ? Can you do whatever you want from the little theater screen ? Power settings for example . Say it has 3 settings ,low , med. , high . Can you set each one to the FPS you desire ? Or are all three settings together ? ( if you change one they all follow ) minus 10 FPS is minus 10 from all three ?
 
I have thought many times about acquiring a Daystate electronic rifle, but still have not “pulled the trigger”.

I have an interesting Daystate “hybrid “ rifle that is perhaps a perfect blend. Its a .25 Renegade HP. It has an electronic trigger (maintained by simple 9v disposable battery) and the rest of the rifle is mechanical - basically a Wolverine HP with an electronic trigger.

Bought it used, had less than 1/2 tin of pellets through it, tags were still attached. Trigger is a distinct, crisp 2 stages.. and breaks consistently at 2.8 ounces… incredible!

I’m a pretty experienced tuner/maintainer/fixer of PCPs, so my hesitation with the Daystate fully electronic rifles is - how adjustable are they actually?

Can you set your low/med/high power settings to be a specific FPS for each?

If not, it seemed easier to adjust a hammer spring or length of hammer throw … and have just an electronic trigger.
