i totally agree.... if you bought it from AOA or other, the Daystate has a 5 year warranty and they will make it right or refund you. Did you buy a barrel specific for slugs or pellets? remember your warranty... if unhappy insist on a refund.
Well not so fast... Although on the list for a 23" .25 barrel, they couldn't quote me a price or delivery date... apparently sub MOA is so busy they hop from one project to the next....
pretty much a thing with diablo pellets = meaning they fly best between 880 and low 900 fps. any gun i have that is tuneable that i increase a diablo pellet speed beyond 908 fps my groups suffer. I am no ballistics guy, just an end user.
I was told by AOA that barrel with shroud and probe would run around $860 they said aftermarket barrels I take it’s not coming from Daystate
Funny that you said that I have been going round and round with Fx or you could say UA both of them, I have a Fx true ballistics choreograph, I would shoot a 5 shot group and the FPE would show 82 FPE and when I save it, it said 65 FPE they said delete the app and start over, on my phone all it would do is let me reinstall it from the cloud, I finally got it to do a new install and everything is working fine now.
I just got off the phone with AoA. Those guys are great to deal with! I ordered a spring kit (and an entire seal kit) so I can experiment with backing mine down after I check the breech o-ring and ensure the barrel is installed correctly. It won't go slower than 935 fps with 25g with the blue spring and reg showing 115-120b. I also ordered some Grands in 28g just for giggles.
No i shoot ghosts but the barrels are most likely coming from the same place and the ghost barrels seem sometimes to react well to a good polish as someone else said i don’t think the barrels are getting the same level of love at the factory as when the red wolf first came out
I think that Daystate is making a lot more guns and can’t take the time to test them, like they may have in the past. The BW is a new platform, I have thought about the ghost but I like the looks of red wolf black wolf it seem to be easier for bench rest shooting to me
Yea to each their own. I think the blackwolf is a good platform also think their nuts with the price especially with the problems people are having. Personally i love the ghost have 3. But as i said you blackwolf guys with poor groups should try polishing the barrels i think you might end up being surprised.
I would love to get that done but I don't want to do it myself and nobody locally does it. Do you have any recommendations?
I don't know if the aftermarket barrels will be sub-MOA, but I did a lot of reading and research on the brand. As always, airgun youtubers sing praises of the barrel while real world owners on this forum isn't too impressed. And that price for a barrel is pretty outrageous unless they GUARANTEE it's a shooter.
