So what does the Delta Wolf waiting time look like these days? Has anyone else had one shipped to them?
Delta Wolf wait?
- Thread starter IguanaPolice
- Start date
You're on a waitlist? they had a bunch of them in their shop when I was there, the guy said they haven't received or sent many out when I asked how the Delta wolf was doing and was looking at the displayed one on the counter...

I’m on the wait list for a .22 cal with AoA. Been on it since April of 2020. Just gotta wait.

No problems at all with mine. It's a fantastic gun that likes lots of different pellets and slugs. I love knowing what velocity I'm shooting, especially if I get a flyer or something.
It's too bad that the gun just doesn't fit me. I hate that I'm trying to sell it but I can't have a gun of that magnitude just sitting in a safe.

I have a little over 3,000 pellets through it without any problems and it has surpassed my Impact X on my fun meter. In my hands they are equally accurate but the built in chronograph is sweet. Mine arrived with a minor leak where the bottle screws on, new washers should fix. I added the extended bipod rail but otherwise have done nothing to the gun; including cleaning the barrel.
The only thing that appears to need tweaking on Day States part is some regulator sensitivity to temperature changes and a low first shot after power on. Centercut and others have mentioned this and I am adding data from the last two days of shooting. I am not the best shot so the gun can do better.
Today: took gun from 68F inside to 74F outside. Regulator started at 170, first shot 1” low at 842fps vs. setting of 880fps. Up to 875 fps on second shot.
55yards
5 shot groups at 80 yards wind at 5mph
Yesterday was hot and humid and it seems both the gun and I took longer to settle in. Temperature change went from 68 F to 88 F. In factory mode the gun wants to see a reg pressure of 170 bar and compensates for any delta to measured pressure. In the above example an actual reg pressure as low as 162 bar had no effect on performance. However yesterday’s heat resulted in a reg pressure of 157 bar and it took about 15 shots to reach target velocity. First shot 4.5 “ low, second -3.5”, third -2”, etc. I am assuming that the greater delta in reg pressure was more than the gun could compensate for but have not increased the reg pressure yet; waiting on another hot day to verify before I start changing things.
Middle row on left are 10 shot groups, rest are 5.
All in all I am impressed for a first release during a pandemic. Looking forward to being able to interface vis Bluetooth and getting a better understanding of the compensation algorithm.

Hi,
Does the "low first shot" occur in Factory and Advanced modes ?
The reason I'm asking is that for me, as a hunter, this would be a deal breaker.

Try shooting the REAL King Heavy (Mk1) in your Delta Wolf (if you can find them) at around 870 FPS. NIght and day difference between the King Heavy and the Mk2.
