Overview
The Daystate Delta Wolf is a high-technology electronic pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) air rifle produced in the United Kingdom by Daystate. Built in a compact bullpup configuration around an electronically controlled firing valve and regulator, it is operated through a colour touchscreen interface that adjusts power, regulates velocity and incorporates a built-in chronograph for shot-to-shot feedback. The rifle uses interchangeable Daystate barrels, a fully shrouded carbon-fibre-clad barrel, sidelever cocking and a carbon-fibre air bottle, feeding from an 11-shot rotary magazine in .22 calibre. It is aimed at long-range precision target shooting and hunting.

Also offered in .177, .25 and .30 calibre with 430mm or 600mm interchangeable barrels. Factory FAC power reaches roughly 65 ft-lbf in .22 and up to about 100 ft-lbf in .30; in many markets the output is restricted to 12 ft-lbf to remain licence-exempt under local air-rifle law. Firmware is user-upgradable over the device.
Background
Daystate pioneered commercial precharged pneumatic air rifles in the late 1970s and led the move to electronic firing-valve technology; the Delta Wolf carried this further with a touchscreen-driven, software-updatable platform and an onboard chronograph, marketed as one of the most technologically advanced sporting air rifles ever produced.
