.177 Air Rifle Slug TEST at 100 Yards!! - FULL REVIEW - Daystate Red Wolf HP - Regulated PCP Airgun 

Congratulations Mark Normandin of Liberty, OH... you're our RDW Winner!!! Thank you Airguns of Arizona & Sponsors for putting on this Event! We appreciate you. Best, Steve

Probably the most advanced airgun on the market besides the Delta Wolf. Truly an awesome airgun. I am so glad you used .177 slugs. This is the first video I have watched with .177 slugs in this platform. I have been wondering how they would do. Man am I glad I got to watch this video. Really got me thinking about trying slugs in my .177 PCP. Thank you. God bless.

Never realized how accurate and powerful the .177 could be with some heavy slugs and a super tuned AG. Thanks for the great review.

From all my air rifles i own. .177 .22 and .25. My favorite is the hatsan nova in .177. Shooting the 19.5gr varmint knockers at 980 fps. 200 yards is not a problem.

Great review! I was amazed by the .177 slugs. I ordered some for my .177 CO2 rifle. They are sweet! This rifle takes the .177 to a whole new level. Thanks for the education.

I have an Airventuri budget, but taste like Daystate. However, I can highly appreciate both.

Afraid to own a electronic gun? Thanks to the paintball industry they did it year's ago, and no looking back! Extream improvement. And used in extreme elements. Slammed into the ground while playing. Mud, rain also. Anyone who has been into paintball, or is knowledgeable in them, knows how closely related they are to our pcps. Electronic or not. Wish we had that technology back in the day, that has come to us now.

We've missed you Steve. And your wisdom.

Between this review and the AEAC VLOG, it's covered all my questions about this rifle. I don't have the funds right now for a brand new Ferrari automobile. But I can obtain this rifle. Its not too expensive for any grown man who really wants it. I love the electronics. It makes everything simple, especially in the factory settings. I will own this rifle. Thanks brother for your excellent review. God bless you and your family. 🎯🎯🎯

Whats up Steve? Good and informative video. Good to also seem .17 cal slugs in action. Your videos have come a long way and you provide tons of REAL WORLD INFO which a lot of guys leave out. So good to see such a beautiful gun shooting beautiful groups. And in 177 no doubt

The only thing I don't like on this gun is the price tag.

The technology has taken a giant step forward. Hopefully, prices will eventually drop as more manufacturers develop digital models of their own. Still, I am amazed at the numbers this tiny caliber is racking up.

That saying..... .177 for feathers, .22 for fur has been flushed down the drain.😁

I cannot over emphasize how weak a point it is with any of the PCPs on the market , letting the barrel hang out over the the air tank without any support is a recipe for disaster ! You have a top notch barrel that needs support at the least half way down the barrel ! As always you do a great job of covering the guns you test impeccably ! 👍

That's cool and all but at that price and long term reliability I'd just stick with a Ruger 10/22

Wow we all drifted away from .177 but considering over 100 yards and with that accuracy and slug and pellet pricing. Might have to go back!

Yes!!!!! Thank you AEAC! Always been obsessed with doing the job effectively with the smallest caliber possible to still deliver a clean kill. More 177 slug videos please! If you love me you’ll do a m-rod or gauntlet .177 slug video!😂 Thanks for your vids Steve!

Best airgun reviewer bar none!

Not my cup of tea. Like the simplicity of traditional springers. Love your reviews 👍

Interestingly enough I have found atleast with my setup going from one power level to the next with their perspective weight doesn't require me re zeroing my scope. Absolutely love it.

Steve Great Effort very good review for this beauty. I really appriciated for your hard working. Daystate company cannot make this review such good. But you done it. And you coverd all topics and features. Thank you.

Amazing video!! As usual. I like this idea, but I also like how reliable an air gun can be (like my new survival gun, the Gamo Swarm Maxxim, thanks to your video on it, I bought it immediately in .22) however there’s a place for everything, and not every manufacturer or gun out there is going to go electronic. Super awesome stuff and I can absolutely see why the customization would be so great for people.

Good seeing you back, dude!

Amazing review once again Steve. Top notch. Love the gears turning....mine turn also when watching!! Ha! So fitting it's genius! LMAO!!....I have been considering shooting .177 slugs and heavy pellets out of 1 or 2 of my Hatsans for the application of pesting massively invasive birds and red squirrels at distance here on my 5 acres which allows me an easy 100yds. At the time this crazy thoughT seemed it would be a challenge as there were not many options for .177 slugs in the market.....at that time about 2 years ago. So, I kind of lost a bit of hope and did what most would do and looked at larger calibers. The sucky part about it for me was I knew that it would mean another rifle purchase (not that I mind of course) and more cost for ammo which I can go through out here with no neighbors or limitations......Well, fast forward to these current developing times and now??.....It's becoming less of a concern now that.177 is in the slug world. AWESOME! I am SO pumped seeing these capabilities at 100 in swirling winds (which I have out here in flat agricultural land) with the displayed accuracy opening the window of opportunity to NOT have to necessarily use a larger caliber/power to dispatch such small pests and vermin as it it's not required as we who have exploded feather or fur with unnecessary amounts of wasted air and lead have executed.......As stated above.....I am PUMPED! I always considered the .177 too be the "laser" of the calibers due to its snappier velocities and straighter trajectories overall.........TOUCHDOWN!! AND THE CROWED GOES WILD!! If my guessed RDW# is chosen by fate.....I just might break the social- distancing rule for a second to squeeze you like a brother and a friend out of sheer joy and disbelief while wearing my mask..... Thanks again Steve....Your tireless work does not go unnoticed. - Corey

Those AA diabolo field heavies you used in testing are amazing. They shoot even better than JSB for me. I even have an 880 that groups just over a half inch at 50 yards with them. (8 pumps)

This electronic system is pretty sweet!

Been watching your gun reviews for a few years now and recently started watching your tuning vlogs....lots of good information in all you do keep up the good work.....this gun is way more than my hourly wage can afford but liked the video

I like the fact that you re consider shooting when you are not confident of your shot👍

Have they updated the electronic time out options? I don't think that was a rant at all, that's guaranteed to ruin every hunt. Excellent and thorough Grade A reviewer.

I would NEVER be able to afford this type of air rifle but I still watched because I really enjoy your channel Steve,and it is always good to learn about whats out there,I didn't Even realize it was a RDW

I have watched thousands if videos on airguns and i must say this video was by far the best video ive ever seen!!! Well done and thank you very much!!.

Interesting - I have chosen the same pellet selection and same basic power settings for 10.3's and 13.4's but with the 16.1's I requested HIGH power setting be bumped up / programmed to just under

Super review of a super gun Steve. You get what you pay for. With the amazing degree of electronic adjustability, I wonder that Daystate has not come out with a semi auto to date!

That’s the only .177 I might consider buying but love ❤️ the .25 a lot more!

$2,800? With that amount of money I can get a handgun, a shotgun, an AR15, ammunition for all of them and probably a steak dinner.

For once I’m safe ,and you are as well, from my wife because of me making this purchase . As much as I love this rifle and have for a while, it’s well out of my price range. I would have to save fora couple of years. Excellent review as always. Now if I can get lucky enough to win this I would be in AIRGUN HEAVEN!!

Wow, now I might need one like that. Instant access to different tunes! Congrats to the luckiest!

Such a great performing & good looking gun. I like shooting .177 the most

not a fan of computers making cars more expensive and harder to repair and that feeling carries over to my guns

Hi Steve, great video as usual, I have a Red Wolf in .177, no it is a sub 12ft/lbs UK model, I could not play with the power settings even if I wanted too, you see the computer that you plug into the gun simply is not available here in the UK, Yup that sucks! if I wanted to change the calibre or the power I have to send it back to Daystate!

Always enjoy watching your video very informative 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

i always new that the 177 cal was no joke and could be very dangerous in the right hands

What a beautiful Airgun, sure would look good in my gun safe.

Hi Steve , Glad Your back , been starting to wonder where You'd got too and also a touch concerned ! , I've read a Lot about this rifle in the UK magazines , but I've been waiting till You did a revue because I know You will answer the questions I had plus some I hadn't even thought of . It's Wayyy beyond My price range but it's nice to dream about winning the lottery or discovering You had some Wealthy benefactor who'd remembered You in a will or something . Your right that rifle is Something Else ,Well Done DayState . By the way I've just been recommending Your channel on a Paul Harrell Video , Thanks Shoot Straight ,Stay Safe & Stay Well !.

Steve it’s freakin wild what they are putting into air guns these days. I am going over all your videos and can’t believe this gun. I’d love to have it, but don’t think I’d ever blow 3k on it. Amazing gun. .177 can be awesome to shoot.

Looking forward to seeing this again, Steve. Just ordered my Hatsan Neutron Star in .177 and it will be my "hybrid" rifle. A .177 who thinks she's a .22 due to the 21 grain slugs, considering most favored .22 pellets are in the 15 grain neighborhood. - Mike

I've been running them 15 grain NSA slugs in 177 in my Edgun Matador R5M Long at 1100fps sence they came out and they are dead nuts

Steve, thanks for the this review, I have been thinking about buying another Daystate in .177 or .25. After posting this message I will be ordering the Nielson's in .177.

Nice to see something other than a FX

Subscriber from Trinidad and Tobago, I know I'm late to the party but this was a great video, would have loved to see your groups with the 21g piledrivers. It's a slug I use and there seems to be not many people using them for videos like this. Then again your videos are kinda unique and I mean that in the best way

It is a travesty that Daystate England produce the worlds best air rifles and our UK laws prevent the use of them by most people in the UK. However I will be applying for a variation to my licence for one of these 😊

Haha I know buddy...in just outside of Dunnellon Fl. Wind is nuts. Ive got 120yds to play with and ive seen flags going both directions

Yes.

Wow!! What an amazing rifle. Truly top shelf.

Finally some one looks in too the 177, and that some one, is STEVE the man. Thanks bud. Now please tell that too fx, so we Can get some new barrels in 177. Best video ever😀👍

Brilliant video Steve 👍. Annoyingly I live in the UK 🇬🇧 and can’t get in touch with Daystate to order parts and find information about my current Daystate, one of the reasons my new purchase has been an FX and not Daystate, what good is a Daystate rifle if you can’t get parts or information about them, annoying how you can Steve and you live 4000 miles away 😂. UK owners are really pissed with Daystate as their customer relations and customer service is none existent and trying to source parts and information is like trying get blood from a stone! Sort it out Daystate! Again great video Steve 👍👍

Very impressive technology! Especially the 3 separate tunes available... a different maybe better? tuning method. As usual the complete story... .177 is still relevant.

Price tags a little scary, but I like the shot count. Another great review Steve.

I love the looks and technology involved in these guns. I have a FX MKlll and cant wait to get this one in my hands ! Great review and great gun! FX does a great job! Steve does pretty good Too! lol

Very nice rifle but I wouldn't buy an airgun with electronics inside. I settled for a Huben K1 recently. All mechanic, semi-auto, hammerless, 19 round magazine, lightweight, compact, quiet and VERY powerful.

One can only dream of having one RW in the arsenal... Shmmmmmeeee

The battery you got looks like a regular airsoft gun lipo battery. The chargers are super cheap for that type of charger connection.

These guns are stupid accurate and way less picky than a gun with a non e trigger or a non e valve gun. That being said 10 years from now or whenever you get an e problem, you end up with a beautiful airgun sculpture. EMP same deal.

Sweet rifle, great review as always.

Looking forward to your excellent review on the Delta wolf

Nice rifle, as is always the case with Daystate👍 Now what is a very pleasant surprise is the power/velocity achievable with this rifle. I was expecting the typical 850 fps to 865 fps that Daystate is known for, and for $3,000 with tax here in the stay s with tax, that would be completely unacceptable. Daystate didn't let us down however, they came through with the goods and appear to give well over 1000 fps with the 177 model! I would be very very interested to know what the 25 caliber model of this rifle puts out for power/velocity!!

Thank you for turning down the volume on the transitions. A good compromise!

Great review as always bro keep up the good work

Where do you go from here ? There's nowhere else to go but down. This could make you an instant snob, and I'd love to get in line. I would think this rifle definitely qualifies as "boringly accurate". I mean there's NOTHING like the feeling of getting dime size groupings, but there's no challenge here. I still want one !!

Very nice. Thanks for the slug schooling!

Impressive for a .177

Slugs by Zan projectiles Have you already tested? They are great !. My Lothar Walther barrel loves the 20grs.

hurricane adah came through Jacksonville, & I didn't know that it did, it downgraded so bad,a regular summer storm was worse lol...

Nice overall review Steve!

Good to see you buddy. Greetings from Poland. 😎 🤪 Daystate is ridiculously expensive in these digital driven lines of airguns. Even for European standards, where airgun is the only gun you would like to have. Because the people here will more likely pay more since the papers for firearm are a pain in the ass. And you still cant shoot with firearm out in the wild nowhere nor on your private land underground - if its not a licensed, and regulated "shooting (range) underground".

5:04 "whata ya talkin bout.... I'm not flexin"

Hey Steve ! I'm from India and I have a question. In India airguns are No.1 / No.2 but in America and Europe, they are .177, .20, .22, .25 & .30. So, my question is which one is equivalent to No.2 airgun from India. In India .22 is called Maneture or something. Could you highlight for me please?

Ridiculously accurate airgun technology.

So until it does the washing up at it's price point, I'm not interested. David UK.

.177 WIN 💯😎

A true work of art!!!

Great review on a great gun, Steve! Man, 15g slugs cutting thru the wind to deliver MOA accuracy at 100 yards too! Pretty cool for a .177. I noticed that when you were done filling to 250 bar, the display kept dropping from 251, 250, 249, 248... Was there a leak or a just a "settling in" time on the gun's pressure sensor? Thanks, Phil

Steve, I've been shooting my Crosman 177cal break barrel long distances for a while using JSB 10 grain slugs with good results. Here is the best I can get accuracy wise at this point using 3-9x40 scope. 50 yards = 1.5" groups and hitting metal chickens, 100 yards = 3.5" groups and hitting golf balls.150 yards = 4.5" groups. Question: Is there anything I can do to eak out some more accuracy from this gun mechanically speaking either by (a) doing something to the stock set up or (b) doing some custom modification or part upgrade? Thanks!

That was an awesome review!

Thank you Steve.

Ha ha. I did the same with a standard female foster fitting on an FX Impact. You only do this once.

The airgun dreams are made of.

That’s a lot of money, but it’s performance is impressive, especially considering the caliber.

for cal 177. What OP reg are you using???

Hi Steve. It´s a great gun and sertantly shoots well .....BUT 2.800$ ???????????? I do not know personetely the gun but I think no gun isn´t werth that much cash!!!!! Anyway. nice vid as usual !!

I’d like to see the fx impact with the power Plenum shooting .177 cal slugs at like 2000 fps

First off I would like to say thank you for such a informed look into this beautiful piece of art air gun. These air rifles are way overpriced, when comparable ones on the market are damn near half the sticker price. Do not get me wrong daystates are beautiful air guns and they are badassed paper punching beasts. But they lack infield durability, when you get into these over engineered air guns, it becomes a pride thing, and not so much a modular dependable infield thing. But in reality Daystate's and other precision (AKA Gucci Guns) air rifles are more of a reflection of the owners ability to spend 3 grand on a paper punching aesthetically gorgeous air rifle. I am not knocking the owners of these guns, simply pointing out their air rifles lack in anything infield, or rough trail application. Were as lets say the Texans, Brococks, and a litany of lesser cost, comparable FPS/FPE rifles that are virtually combat ready competitors, that can take a beating, fairly easy (where you do not need a electricians/engineers degree) to repair. Again do not misunderstand me. If someone were to give me one of them I would use it, and take it to the range once or twice to show my buddies, suffer the never ending taunts from bringing a gucci gun to show off :) then hang it on the wall as a really pretty functional (in limited capacity) piece of art .

A very good, competent review. However, these kind of 'airguns' are so far removed from traditional airguns that I find I have no interest in owning something like it. A tx, hw, lgu, etc. all give me the 'I wants', but not this. The tech interests me, but for the shooting experience, this seems more akin to a firearm.

Great review, thank you

That is a reaaal powerful rifle

Excellent video!! Great rifle

Beautiful gun indeed and deadly accurate 💯🇺🇸💪❤️🔥

Sir can you please please test Impact 177 @ hi power using slug or 16.20JSB we want power but we can only use .177 in our place

Nice one, very informative, Thanks for sharing

the rifle is very good, I would like to have a rifle like that, good luck
