Long Range with a Daystate RedWolf HP and NSA Sugs 20.2 .217

Nice shooting. That looks like MOA shooting at 224 meters. Great shooting!

I just got my .22 Blue Wolf this week as my EBR win prize, decided not to wait on the Delta since I want to compete with RD Monsters in 2020. IMHO the RD Monsters have a technical advantage over other pellets like the .25 JSB Heavy and .30 JSB 44.75. It’s set to shoot RD Monsters on Medium Power level at 995 FPS. Based on your recommendation (Edosan) I put a Vortex Golden Eagle on Bleu, the Big Cheese. My first 3 groups 5 shots each at 100 yards with RD Monsters on EBR Target. Learning gun over next couple of weeks. NSA 20.2 gr. shoot 1050 FPS on medium but haven’t shot them yet... Thanks much to Daystate for making a great gun, AoA for providing it (thanks Rob) and Bobby Corcorran for taking the time to tune the gun (thanks Bobby) .

Gorgeous looking rifles. I’m looking at picking up a redwolf myself but I’m trying to figure out how to mount the bipod Picatinny rail to the stock without screwing it up. I just read some earlier posts where people were saying that the wood was thin by the bottle. Do any of you have pictures of your pic rail mounting? Some close-ups would be awesome.

Thanks a ton!

how you liking the electronics in the daystates?..

Edosan..followed your impact tuning it was great..compare the impact ..by the way nice buteo..eagle miss leading.

congrats ..center cut ,sweet rifle..cal you choose?

Great looking guns Mike and Edwardo. I kind of like the blue just a little more, maybe a little more subtle.

Congrats CC, great shooting! The gun looks AWSOME! That BLUE WOLF looks intimidating, mean and subtle all at the same time! Good luck at RMAC & EBR, I hope to shoot mine at the PAcup?

I don’t want to hijack Edosan’s post so I’ll do a separate intro after I shoot more pellets and slugs this weekend. Here’s my two best cherry picked targets from today... Five shots each at 100 yards. Bottom targets two shots at the #9.

I'm using a Saber Tactical bottle clamp on mine. I didn't want to mess up the wood and it's better to have the bipod further out.

Check out Tomcat Airguns on YouTube; Tom has a DIY video on how he did his. He is also a member here on AGN.

You could also PM him, but he just might chime in.

Edosan, 

Spectacular shooting! I have not ventured farther than 100 yards shooting paper targets yet, and some day I will go next door to the 100/200/300/400 yard range and try some steel and/or paper. However, it's inconceivable to me what folks are doing with Long Distance (LD) shooting and air guns!

I have recently purchased a RW Safari in .25 HP from AoA. I had them put on the PIC rail as I had same concerns if I did it; and didn't want to screw it up. 

Mike (CC) - Also, great shooting for the first outing on your new Blue Laminate RW .22 ! That's great shooting for any 'number' of outings to me! Funny, my RAW .22 HP HM1000x shot the JSB RD pellets very well too at 100 yards, so I take your point on those RD pellets. 

Back to the Safari .25 - I am going to try the NSA slugs, but so far I have shot the JSB 25 g ( 900 FPS @ medium power, see below ) and the 33G JSB MK ll. Honestly, this is the only sub MOA score or group I have ever shot at 100 yards; and have been out three times now with the Safari and normally shoot between 2-3" CTC average at 100 yards with those pellets. So, this is a 'cherry pick' group and not indicative of what I normally shoot so far with this new gun. I have authored some other posts that show typical score shooting at 100 yards, and wish I could repeat this again some day.

Oops.
It was actually 49/50; the pellet is touching the 9 ring and it really was a true 100 yards. I have since corrected the NUAH card.

Thanks for the posts. I read all I can about Daystates. Since the lock down have not gotten to shoot my .25 Safari. Y’all have helped a lot. Stay safe

Hi, Centercut good choice on the blue IMO, I am really looking forward to your explanation of the "technical" advantage of the .22RD MONSTERS over .25 & .30, are you going to share it with us at some point?

Yes, I’ll explain in more detail on the post I do soon about the .22 Bleu Wolf. In summary it has to do with the superior BC, and also the speed they can be shot at without losing accuracy and precision compared to .25 Heavy or .30 Exact. Unlike any other pellet I’ve shot, these RD Monsters like to go fast, much faster than the 850 to 920 FPS we use (from experience) for other diabolo shaped pellets. More to follow...

My RAW .22 HP shot the RDs at around 940-950 FPS and it was pretty accurate at 100 yards; normal ES was 10-15 range. Love those pellets. 

edosan - nice shooting. Are you using the factory Red Wold power settings, or have you changed them with a tuner?

Thanks to those of you that replied to my question about the pic rail installation. Just ordered my redwolf HP walnut today. Airguns of Arizona said they would install the rail on it for $56 So I’m having them do it.
