It may share a resemblance to Daystate’s beautifully styled Pulsar flagship precharged pneumatic. but the all-new Renegade is distinguishable by a secret hidden deep within its synthetic stock: its precharged action is mechanically-driven!
In place of an electronic GCU [Gun Control Unit] and map-compensated firing cycle, the heart of the Renegade beats around the mechanical Harper-patented Slingshot Hammer system. as fitted to its popular Wolverine and Regal siblings. The result is an all-new rifle that shares many of the features equipped on the revolutionary Pulsar, but without all the computerised complexity and expense.
Yet the Renegade is itself not devoid of ground-breaking features, not least it's Hybrid Trigger Unit [HTU). Historically, the bullpup design has delivered limitations with the trigger release due to the more forward location requiring inefficient levers that are detrimental to a good feel. With the electronic Pulsar, this problem was overcome. And Daystate has now extended its know-how to develop a hybrid electronic/mechanical trigger for the Renegade - the first system of its kind to be seen on a high-powered PCP air rifle, and marking an end to the age-old problem of a poor trigger let-off for mechanically-driven bullpups.
Building on the standard Renegade’s Slingshot air release, the Renegade HR’s controlled air metering flattens out the power curve, so the velocity of the last shot in the rifle’s charge will be the same as the first… as will every single one between! And, of course, the improved accuracy and greater shot-count synonymous with regged PCPs are also benefits offered in the HR model.
Both models come dressed in an ergonomic, ambidextrous stock featuring fully-adjustable butt pad, drop-down pistol grip and forend accessory rail, while the Renegade’s sidelever-cocked action runs Daystate’s tried-and-tested 10-shot, auto-loading magazine – but a single-shot loading tray can be fitted for competition work if preferred.
A fully-shrouded barrel with threaded muzzle, in-guard safety catch and reach-forward intermount with anti-cant bubble complete what’s been heralded as a totally new breed of high-performance precharged pneumatics.

It continues Daystate’s rich legacy of match-winning FT models for shooters who compete at the highest national and international level of airgunning’s most challenging outdoor target shooting discipline. Uncompromising in every area of its highly-sophisticated action, the Tsar includes features like a five-level adjustable, multi-sear trigger system that’s controlled by a multi-adjustable blade, and a high-precision, match-grade stainless steel Lothar Walther barrel. Its sidelever cocking system also allows for dry-firing practice, where trigger technique can be honed without actually discharging a shot.
Designed to maximise shooter control, the stock that cradles the Tsar’s action is every bit as state-of-the-art. Constructed in laminate to eliminate any stresses imparted between wood and metalwork during the rifle’s charge cycle, its thumbhole design is crafted with both form and function in mind. Boasting an array of multi-adjustable features to achieve a tailor-made gunfit – such as an anatomical
grip/palm rest, cheekpiece and butt pad – every conceivable benefit is brought to the shooter, whether faced with a sitting, prone, kneeling or standing shot.
Designed and built without compromise, the Tsar is an unashamed trophy-winning machine.
The "C" Type is the 12 foot pounds cylinder version of the Daystate Wolverine. Available in .177 and .22 calibres and can also be produced in a 30 foot pound (42 Joule) variants.
Distinctive on the new version is the fore-end piece, made from high performance PA66 (ballistic) polyester. The fore end also incorporates a 23mm picatinny rail for accessories. The rifle is pictured with an optional tactical bipod and sling swivel which are also available from Daystate.
The Wolverine C type features a (200cc) aluminium air tube which is a shortened version of the 300cc tube used on the Wolverine 303. The longer 303 length tube can also be specified as an optional extra if a higher shot count is preferred.
Developed over an unprecedented 7-year development program, the Wolverine is all-new and incorporates many new design and safety features, while retaining Daystate’s core principles:
"A superb hunting rifle, with power accuracy and performance good enough to take target shooting."
The Wolverine is the end-product of a team of British and Italian designers and engineers who have combined 30 years of airgun and 60 years of shotgun technologies to create a new generation of Airguns that will ensure Daystate’s position as Manufacturer of the finest Airguns in the world.
The Wolverine core design is to be used in several new models. At present we have the following models available with more being released in the future.
The Wolverine lineage has now been extended to include an air-regulated action and side lever cocking.
FEATURES AND SPECIFICATIONS OF THE WOLVERINE R AIR RIFLE
Offering all the time-proven attributes of the Wolverine 2 and now including the availability of a grey laminate or walnut thumbhole stock, the new R model swaps a cocking bolt for the in-vogue sidelever cocking system, increasing yet further the appeal of this very versatile PCP. Additionally, the sidelever can be switched from right-side operation to left, further building upon the ambidextrous design of the thumbhole stock.
And, of course, that R suffix denotes this rifle’s piece-de-resistance – its regulator. Developed especially for Daystate in partnership with the internationally renowned Dutch regulator specialist, Huma, the measured air control that it brings to the R’s action brings a host of benefits. Not only does it maximise shot-to-shot consistency as the rifle cycles through its usable air charge, but downrange accuracy is also improved. Furthermore, a greater number of shots are returned per fill-up – a big advantage on the Hi-Power and 303 models, which will return around 200 per cent more shots than the standard Wolverine 2 courtesy of the Huma’s highly efficient use of air.
If the Wolverine 2 is a marvel of mechanical PCP technology, then the Wolverine R has to be the pinnacle.
