I have a Daystate HP 30 cal & I am about to put a 117 barrel on it, if you have a 177 Hp would you mine sharing your info on the pellet or slug that you are shooting grain and FPS

Daystate Red Wolf 177

Can you share why you are changing calibers from the .303. I am contemplating getting a Wolverine R in .303, mainly for predator hunting, but have often wondered if it would also be backyard friendly noise-wise.

I like bench rest shooting, I do have other Daystate guns, only one HP so it is easier to change barrels and cheaper

my low and medium settings allow me to compete in HFT and stay below the <20 ftlbs.
My high setting allows me maximum effect for pesting with jsb 16.1's.

That's nice flexibility for dual purposes. This the same one you took to the Pensacola Airgun Club?

Yes, just got it back from AOA who was sorting things out. It is a bit tricky to mount a decent pic rail adapter on the front of the RW dovetail site, as you need to remove the barrel shroud so you can "slide" one down the front to the back. I'm not brave enough to mess with my 5 year warranty using a Heli Board "yet".

My .177 redwolf hp shoots 16.1 on high (915 fps), 13.4 redesigned on medium (900 fps) and 10.4 on low (915 fps) these are the most accurate settings..superb accuracy

I personally wouldn't. I know guys that have used it and then switched back!

Mine is shooting the 13.43 slugs on high power very accurately, I don’t have a chrony but it’s stock from AOA and I believe it’s around 1020 fps on high power with the slugs, not positive though.
Here’s 10 shots on a steel disc at 100 yards.
I really enjoy shooting the RedWolf .177 HP because there’s no recoil and it’s an easy rifle to shoot for me.
I had AOA put on the pic rail and it has the scope at the perfect height for my fused neck.
I bet you will be very impressed with how well the .177 slugs slice through the wind too.
Let us know how it goes!

I got this group with some piledrivers yesterday at 50, 21 grain but I don’t think they make these any more

No the blue RedWolf is .22 HP and it’s awesome too, just not as much fun to shoot as the .177, every bit as accurate though.
My .177 shoots the JSB redesigned incredibly well on low power and you get hundreds of super accurate super quiet shots. I have the ODB moderators on both rifles.
Edit: The slugs I’m using are the JSB knockouts and I have the best accuracy with the 13.43 grain.
I tried the 10 grain knockouts and they aren’t as accurate, not bad on low power but not nearly as good as the redesigned pellet.
Here’s pictures of the slugs recovered from wet paper.
I was impressed with the perfect mushrooming.

I have some ZAN 22grain solid .177 slugs I wouldn`t mind donate a "fingerfull" to to a Redwolf owner for a performance test.
