One other thing I didn’t like was the price. The same night I was shooting a Weihrauch HW100 and I think I would go for one of them myself, partly because of price and I don’t like that big bottle hanging on the front of the Daystate.

Al... do you recall what version of the daystate you shot? its my understanding that the 80fpe version uses a choked .223 rimfire barrel, and shoots boat tail lead. i also found a couple places that make beefier shrouds for the daystate to quiet it down even more. given the area i have to shoot in, i need quiet. _________________ "not tonight dear, i have a race in the morning"   Posted: Tue Mar 17, 2009 1:23 pm Alstone Moderator & Site Supporter Joined: 01 Mar 2007 Posts: 4139 Location: Linconshire, ENGLAND dummyracer36 wrote: Al... do you recall what version of the daystate you shot? its my understanding that the 80fpe version uses a choked .223 rimfire barrel, and shoots boat tail lead. i also found a couple places that make beefier shrouds for the daystate to quiet it down even more. given the area i have to shoot in, i need quiet. It was a .22 running at about 11.5 fpe, and fitted with a silencer UK spec, very quiet, but if your using 80fpe then it will be loud, they do indeed shoot a super 40grain solid air bullets and a teflon coated 50grain for the .25, there is talk of them pushing the standard 16grain up to 1750fps.

I doubt the Steyr is worth the money. You obviously never held, or shot one. I've seen groupings at 50 yards from an old guy who never held a rifle before with one of these. You wouldn't believe it if I showed you, but it was UNDER half an inch. By the way, Steyr makes the best barrels in the world, and their name stands for much more then quality. If there is one thing the Austrians can do like no other country in the world, it's building guns. They've probably got the longest quality air-rifle history in the world anyway. Daystates are pretty darn good too, but with that being said, I heard they are overpriced a bit. I held one, but never shot one. I'm not sure which model it was, but finish was terrifique. _________________ BIG GAP   Posted: Sat Apr 18, 2009 7:44 am dummyracer36 Senior Member Joined: 21 Sep 2008 Posts: 723 Location: St. Louis, Missouri STILL waiting to hear about the Steyr....... i just cant seem to get the idea of owning one out of my head... all that billet...mmmm but... i do already have a 30fpe gun, and kinda wanted something more powerful, hence the idea of the Daystate. but if i went with an FX i could also get a big bore 9mm or larger all for the same $$$ as the Steyr. decisions decisions......... _________________ "not tonight dear, i have a race in the morning"   Posted: Sat Apr 18, 2009 1:36 pm fritz Silver Status Member Joined: 25 Nov 2008 Posts: 2444 Location: New Jersey- outside of Philadelphia I need to look into the .223 version... sounds interesting. _________________ "I never set out to be wierd, it was always everyone else who called me it" -Frank Zappa Speed is impressive, accuracy is deadly.
