Hi
Superb review. Just what was needed. A gun for all seasons and reasons.
On the downside even more impatient to get one. Grrr?
Here in France cannot even get hold of a Wolf Safari. No dealers have them, maybe 8 weeks
The Delta maybe middle of the year. You lot in USA seem to get them ALL
Lucky boy with all that lovely hunting land,
safe shootng

Thanks for checking it out, had a great time filming for these. Hopefully I can get a few more finished before I have to send it back.

Thanks Dana. This has been the greatest review of the DW. In-depth, backed up with pictures and data. Hope you get to keep it.

Great info here Dana. If you do a future vid/post, can you clarify the factory setting vs profiles, and setting the reg pressure on the screen vs the reg screw on the gun? I tried to input the tame tune you posted for the 44.75gr pellet. My reg pressure is in red at 158 bar, and I cannot change it to get to the 135 you posted. Also, is there a way to de-cock the DW or a way to delete a set/profile?

I'm going to guess the gun you have is set to 160, you would manually turn the reg down for that. I don't believe you can de-cock the gun. Note to remove bottle and fire a few times to clear plenum before turning reg clockwise down. 1/8 turn is about 10 bar for reference.

Can anyone tell me why the bottle on my gun took my wife holding the gun and me turning it with a rubber grip pad to unscrew? After re-installing it is difficult to get to re-seat, it wants to leak/hiss air. I watch guys unscrewing these bottles with one hand like it's nothing. I guess I’m old and weak.

I have the same issue. Have to really tighten it after removing to stop it from leaking when reinstalling bottle and charging to eliminate hissing, leaks.

Thank you for letting me know I’m not the only one. I did get it to reseat after a couple tries.

The bottle is really made to be removed when it's near empty. Mine goes on and off pretty smooth but have found you have to do it kinda quick... finding that spot where it's just about to engage and making sure I have enough leverage with my hand.

Yes it does seem to be a technique i am getting better at it. The first time sort of had me worried. So far that is the only complaint. Need to get out of the basement and try some slugs at longer range than 17 yards. Pellets are 1 hole groups but not so much with slugs. But as i said i am shooting close range due to the Ohio weather. Mine is a .25.

Just get out and have some fun, I'd suggest cleaning it well before trying slugs. My experience with those barrels, especially with slugs is to be cleaned frequently.

Hey Dana Sorry I haven't been watching nor paying any attention to Delta Wolf reviews yet since I am still waiting for the 2 which I preordered and don't want to lose any sleep being too anxious during the wait.
I'll catch up on the Delta Wolf threads after I have both of mine in hand.

There are a lot of cool things about this rifle. I love the concept to the point I might be able to get past it being horribly ugly. (I got over it for the Texan) But I stalk hunt in the swamps and river bottoms, and that doesn't involve a tri-pod. It usually doesn't involve a sling either, but rather carrying the rifle for miles in a ready to shoot position. I saw that you did have some off-hand shooting there. So honest opinion: How comfortable is it off-hand, and would you want that lower pic rail in your hand all day?

The gun is fine to carry around and shoots offhand really well. For me personally I wouldn't be carrying it with an extension rail or bipod. For bench shooting an extension rail would help immensely to improve groups. It's a fairly short, lightweight package that made it through the thick stuff no problem. If the gun is to be used in extreme wet weather then something needs to be improved with the usb port cover.
