I am envious, what a beautiful gun! That is one of the guns on my wish list for field target. Hope you tell us more how it is doing, I would be particularly interested how it does at 50 to 55 yards and also any chrono / shot string info.

LOVE the DayStates. I have a .303 hi-lite with the full Huggett shroud also and man!!
The one you got there is absolutely beautiful and the group shows you just a taste of what is to come!
Happy Anniversary my friend and cheers to another year together.

First effort results with my Wolverine .177 at 50 yards. There was a pesky L-R breeze that would come and go so I shot pretty fast, the JSB 13.43's did the best 795fps two groups right at .5", marked by the dimes,
the JSB 10.3's showed some promise, group at top is 10 shots but the breeze messed me up. I didn't do a shot string on the 13's just got 'em yesterday afternoon just checked where they were runnin', 800ish but I did some 10shot strings on; JSB 10.34's @ 900ish SD2 / 10 shots; H&N 10.65's @880 SD2 \ 10 shots; CP 7.9HP's @ 960 SD 3 / 10 shots. Consideting the breeze and the fact I'm not the best bench shooter there is better to come with this Wolverine.

Mine has a walnut stock, but if I were to go plastic, that would have been the one.
What pressure is your regulator set up at?
When the wind subsides, you should be able to get a group like you had at 40-50 yards too.

According to the Huma gauge the reg is set at 140b, I wonder why Daystate has it set that high on a standard power .177?

Very nice groups with wind, looks like it would be a great field target gun. Now I really am green with envy!

Mine came in at 150. I left it there because it pushes pellets a tick above 900 FPS. Huma regulators are known to be adjustable, but I have not played with this one yet. It is suposed to be a "special" regulator designed for the Wolverine that is adjustable and the how to is in this video on You Tube. Steve does not tell you what adds or removes pressure, but around the 10 minute mark, he sort of shows that adding pressure is clockwise and taking some out is counterclockwise. This was done by the direction he moves his hands when talking.
