My New rifle : Daystate Safari 25 Cal (Quick review)

[Huntsman]

Finally I received my new rifle: Daystate Redwolf SAFARI 25 cal ART barrel, it comes with the long 0Db moderator.



This is an amazing rifle, it responds to all my requests:  Modern, very well built, laser accurate, very powerful, amazingly consistent, very quite with the 0db moderator (really neighbor friendly even on high power) and it has the best trigger I ever seen.

I measured the pellet speed at each power with chrony , these are the results (5 shots at every power)  :

    High power 34 grains : Avrg = 966 fps /  70,33 fpe (95 joules) 
    Medium power 34 grains : Avrg =  885 fps /  59 fpe ( 80,19 joules) 
    Medium power 25 grain : Avrg =  1012 fps / 58,89 fpe (78,26 joules) 
    Low power 25 grain : Avrg =  916 fps / 47,43 fpe (64,22 joules) 

The shot counts on each power from 250 bars until it shows “Low pressure” (sorry I forgot to note the low pressure bars for each power plan):

    High power: 36 shots
    Medium power: 81 shots
    Low power: 126 shots

Scoped with sidewinder 6-24×56 and zeroed at 40 meters/44 yards, at that distance this gun is surgical: 10 shots with jsb king heavy MKII in the same hole, so it’s a waste of time…

Unfortunately, I was unable to make a serious accuracy test because of weather but I made a quick test at 80 meters/ 87,5 yards using my trigger stick tripod (that I usual use when I hunt) and some paper targets: with jsb king and King heavy MKII respectively on low and medium power, the 2 groups of 5 shots each were about 1”1/4 CTC and the group of 5 shots with king heavy MKII on high was about 1” CTC.

I know that this rifle can do better results even at long ranges if I do my part especially if I use bipod or sand bag.

I’ll try to make it next weekend using more steady support and I’ll report the results with photos.

To finish, I made some plinking by shooting  2” square knock over steel targets at the same distance and the Kings heavy really hits with authority.

Conclusion: The Redwolf Safari .25 is an amazing rifle, it’s a shooting pleasure, and it worth every dollar… It puts a big smile on my face every time I squeeze the trigger and I think that I won the gun lottery.

That’s an incredible rifle and it’s beautiful. I had no idea it got that many shots, especially the power it puts out on medium and low power. Nice review and congratulations on such a fantastic rifle.
