It says that for all the barrels besides they all have a carbon shroud , aren’t they using the shroud to tension?

Daystate Blackwolf information

- Start date
Yea thats the same thing they say about the ghost but the 28” 25 cal is 1-30 twist which doesn’t work for slugs.

I got to spend another couple of hours with the Blackwolf today. AOA set the reg at 120 bar and had the power wheel at 6.
Norman has temporarily settled on a Athlon Heras SPR 6-24x56 mounted with Burris 1.25” 30mm signature rings.
This BW has a sub 12 non FAC transfer port and the low power white spring installed.
My Garmin chronograph indicated the 13.4’s were moving at 786 FP, too slow so I kept increasing the power wheel and at 16 I hit the HFT sweet spot for this pellet weight 815 FPS - I zeroed in at 27 yards using JSB 13.4 RD’s - perfect weather and I was drilling the same hole. AOA probably tuned for 10.3's at 880 and left power wheel on 6.
Afterward chrono work, I took a shot at 10 yards to get the holdover information I needed for strelock pro to determine center of scope to center of barrel. Shazam!
Using clicks on this Mrad scope every single shot was spot on from 10 to 55 yards and I knocked down 63 targets in a row - from the bench. That was a first for me! I’m betting Norman has a real winner here with his HFT Blackwolf.
oh by the way .., this Airgun makes a satisfying Steyr type “pop” with the huggett moderator on it.
With a Weihrauch moderator shown it's a phhhht.
A reminder that this Blackwolf has a 300L air bottle and i had plenty of air left after 65 shots.

Since I’ve written the above I’m quoting myself and revisiting my words.
I’ve been so impressed with the HFT .177 BW that Norman has been drilling my targets with, that I’m going to spring for a .25 BW of my own, I’ll set it up specifically for EFT / UFT / AFT.
The hard part is to figure out how I want to configure it

So my black wolf arrived two weeks ago. Put a scope on it and did some shooting in the basement so 15yards and one tiny hole per mag. Today I was able to get outside for a little while and set up targets at 28 and 51 yards. My best target is five shots shown below ( and yes there were many targets not quite as tight) but if I didn’t try to muscle it the gun did not disappoint. I was shooting rangemaster kings 13.42 at 815fps. This rifle sits well for offhand, side note- I am no longer the poster child for offhand 
. it arrived a little too hot for field target so degassing and checking the hammer spring got me to 100 bar on the reg and 2 on the power wheel. used the white hammer spring. this is not a 12 foot pound gun. quite pleased so far, I hope others are enjoying theirs also.

im suprised you could slow the .177 down enough to be hft legal with the larger FAC porting.
