About the Daystate Wolverine R

The Daystate Wolverine R is a British pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) air rifle, a comprehensive mechanical redesign of Daystate's long-running Wolverine platform. It pairs the firm's patented Slingshot hammer system with a Huma-Air regulator to deliver consistent, highly efficient shot strings, and cocks via a smooth, factory-reversible side lever feeding a 10-shot rotary magazine in .25 calibre. Built around an aluminium action with a removable carbon-fibre air bottle and a shrouded, fully-floating barrel, it is offered in walnut and laminate stock options and in High Power (HP) configuration capable of around 50 ft-lbs of muzzle energy in .25.

Daystate, founded in 1978 in Staffordshire, England, is one of the oldest precharged-pneumatic air rifle makers and helped pioneer electronic-firing sporting airguns. The Wolverine R's regulator was developed in partnership with Dutch regulator specialist Huma-Air.
