I have had a red wolf 22cal hp but it was too long. And now after seeing some results of the pulsar.177 hp. I thought I’d try it, was going to get the 22 hp but at the last minute because the 177 is a little better with slugs. Maybe you could enlighten me on some of the general aspects that I should be aware of. Also at the price of $1699.00 I can buy a. 177 and the.22 and still be less money than the delta Wolf.
My .177 HP shoots like a laser beam. Coming off a RW there was a learning curve for me. As a bullpup the Pulsar is much more hold sensitive as compared to a traditional rifle, but once you learn what it likes it rewards you. What works best for me is to pull tightly into my shoulder with my strong hand on the pistol grip. Mine enjoys a diet of JSB 16.20 gr Beasts which it spits out at +/- 900 fps. I have never shot slugs out of it. YMMV but mine retains very reasonable accuracy using the Daystate magazine.
The Pulsars are definitely heavier guns, but I use mine off the bench. As you already know from your RW experience, there is virtually no current substitute for a Daystate electronic trigger. And if one has to have a cocking lever back by one's ear with a bullpup, the 'cocking' lever of the Pulsar is the one to have!
Enjoy your new gun. It truly is the end of an era with Daystate discontinuing the Pulsar. I've got my .177 HP and a .22 in standard power, and neither of them are going anywhere.
