Is it true that the center part of the tac stock is plastic? I thought i read that somewhere

Yes.

Plastic/polymer like a Glock.

It looks like it in the photos. I’m sure it’s composite

 

[Billm]

Still looks good, as long as it doesn’t impact the strength/integrity of the chassis.

A polycarbonate sort of thing actually. It seemed robust enough.

Review the film. I think I remember the plastic part for the rifle is only with the Tube. My BlackWolf Walnut with the 480cc bottle does not have the plastic. I bought the picatiny extra to attach to the front of the stock to the arca mounted in the wood for bi-pod use.
Good luck great rifle.

For you guys thinking about these you can buy long arca or pic rails for mlock from amazon under $50

If I buy one it will be for benchrest shooting. I’m working on the steps to try and bring my benchrest skills up a notch. I know shooting off a folding gp plastic table is not helping and so I’m going to build a decent bench. I fully understand that I’m the weakest link right now. But shooting skills are the least expensive impediment to fix. I’m blessed in that I’m retired and can shoot 100yds everyday in pajama bottoms, with the only cost being the cost of pellets. The bench is the next impediment that is relatively easy to fix. I believe that my Sonoran is capable of shooting consistent sub-MOA 100yard groups. In my thinking if a rifle can shoot two out five sub-MOA groups everyday, day in and day out, it’s a sub-MOA rifle. But, is it capable of consistent 1/2 MOA groups at 100yds- maybe not. With a .502” ten ring, 1/4” MOA would be ideal. Four thousand dollars is a substantial investment for me (like a lot of shooters) and its inherent accuracy and tune ability can’t be a limiting factor. Simply put, I won’t be able to afford to replace it. My only expectation is that it is capable enough for me to reach the maximum of my ability. I’m willing to put in the effort.

Just a thought: In Google put in Bench Table Plans. This should give you ideas. Also Benchrest.com has links.

Thanks I’ve googled some ideas, but I didn’t know about the website. The more info the better. Thanks again.

On the Film above look at Minute 19.00 for the explanation about the extension for the tube rifle. Lots of other pictures from the start.
Solo 1,thanks for the help remenbering the M-loc terminology that comes with the rifle.

Agreed, the walnut is the beauty of the bunch, with the laminate close behind (and tougher) but if shooting bench I'd have to say; go chassis all the way. I will always choose the longest barrel offered in an airgun but after seeing this video....those 17inch barrel power numbers are impressive!! I'd probably get a 24" barrel and call it a day for .177, .22, or .25.
Now that Daystate has brought the power they REALLY need to offer a 24" slug barrel.
My .22 Ghost HP with its 24" pellet barrel is exact same fpe the B.W. Jared was shooting with just a 17"...wow.
Wierd that on high power the bottle wasn't really giving more shots than the cylinder but on low power it was?!
I dont think the B.W. has to prove anything....its just a matter of time before it wins some big competitions. There are no landslides anymore, alot of companies are putting out some real nice and accurate pcps....its your barrel, your ammo, the conditions right when you pull the trigger, and you.
The chassis version does come with a really nice Arca rail....thats one accessory you dont need to buy
... And the plenum extension i believe only fits on that model.
Get a .30, make some slugs on your press and tell us all about it

You’re the second person to mention the 24” barrel to me today. I’m sitting back and watching right now. Not to mention enjoying the banter . I might just convert my ghost .30. Interesting: when typing this response, it autocorrected ghost to ghetto.

I converted everything back to OEM (28" barrel) and got some solid numbers today. Hoping for another session tomorrow morning before a storm system arrives and then will compose the info into a more easily digestible format.

The teaser is that I HIGHLY recommend the spring kit if anybody decides on the 28" barrel version (1000fps with 28.55 Grands on MIN hammer tension with the red spring that this version comes with, and can push 25.4 MRDs to just shy of 1100fps with some extra hammer tension, not that that's a good thing but whoa!. )

At the power levels of the 17” barrel I don’t understand why they have a 28” 22 cal unless its a slug barrel and even then it seems unnecessary

Slugs is e exactly what I'm planning to shoot tomorrow morning.

To get 1000fps with 28.55grain pellets with the hammer spring tension dialed all the way down is just insane to me. Red spring (OEM) for the 28" .22 version = slugs.

I experimented a bit with the white spring and the 28" barrel today.

Still need to mess with the blue. From what I saw today, I'm thinking blue might be right for 25.4 and 28.55 pellets, with the 28" barrel.

36+ grain boattail slugs (a la Altaros).

Id go right up to the 40’s

1000fps with 28.55 Grands on MIN hammer tension

Lol that brings back memories My Ghost HP shot the 18.13 from 998fps on min to 1098 on max as sent.

I had similar thoughts when Daystate boosted the power levels on the Delta/Alpha. Nobody shooting pellets was asking for more power, and if you didnt get a slug barrel with yours....it was useless. Yeehaw I can shoot 44gr Jsbs past 1000fps....fun for a few shots maybe but not helpful for accuracy at all.
I imagine this will put the B.W. (and Daystate) right up there with the Panthera and the Condor for power numbers. @Franklink i know what kind of airgunning you like but do open it to the max just for fun at some point Its like reviewing a sports car and not testing 0-60 and the quarter mile time...sometimes you just have to know

 

[cavedweller]

I absolutely love the look of the Walnut stock, but I’d want the chassis too. But for me, I’m going to have to wait until the dust settles lol.

chassis = 2lbs more weight.

 

[Holden Over]

Airguns of Arizona just dropped an in-depth video explaining the Blackwolf system. I’m only half way through the video and I’m already flipping back to wanting one. Keep in mind it is a marketing video and that is not a criticism, I’m just warning you it’s effective at achieving its desired goal. . I still think the Blackwolf is the finest looking air rifle that I have seen. In my particular case, it just needs to prove its potential to win for me to pull the proverbial trigger.

I’m in the same place.Giving serious consideration to spending down even more of the grandkids inheritance on a Blackwolf .22 set up for 100yard bench rest.
Any idea when they plan to drop the other videos they mentioned
