HAM contributor Pete Shooter is a long-time Daystate fan. So – with his permission – let’s look at his new Daystate Wolverine R High Power in .25 caliber.
Pete’s new Daystate Wolverine R is big, powerful and beautifully finished. It has a buttery side lever action and a muzzle brake was supplied by Airguns of Arizona at the new owner’s request. There is a shrouded barrel, but this is not a stealth-quiet air rifle, for sure.
The multi-adjustable trigger feels sublime too, of course…
Pete find the gun well balanced. The stock design fits him perfectly, he says. And just look at the wood!
The action includes a Huma regulator, as is indicated by the twin pressure gauges on the left side of the action.
Pete topped-off the gun with the Hawke scope he prefers. “Why mess with success”, he says…
The male fill nipple is located in the underside of the stock. It’s protected by a cover which holds in place due to the action of a magnet. Below we see the cover removed and placed on the stock. As you can see, the quality of finish is superb. This is one of the main reasons Pete loves his Daystate air rifles – along with the performance, of course!
The Daystate Wolverine R is fitted with a polygonal Lothar Walther barrel.
Pete is currently testing accuracy with a variety of pellets in his new gun but has great hopes for the .25 caliber H&N Grizzly 31 Grain hunting bullets. If extensive testing proves the Daystate Wolverine R prefers these through the polygonal barrel, he says that he plans to stick with the non-diablo ammo for this gun.
Pete says the 10-shot magazine and large, 480cc, tank give the promise for some long, happy shooting sessions. He likes .25 caliber because he finds the pellets – or bullets? – easy to grasp and load. Not like those pesky little .177 things, he says…
And they certainly strike the target with the authority of around 70 Ft/Lb of Muzzle Energy.
Tanks to Pete for letting us drool over his beautiful new air rifle on Valentine’s Day!
