About
What it is, and why it matters
The Daystate Huntsman Revere is a regulated pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) air rifle produced in the United Kingdom by Daystate. An updated take on the long-running Huntsman line, it is the first Huntsman to use a sidelever cocking action driving a mechanical slingshot hammer system. Power is delivered consistently via an integrated HUMA-Air regulator running from a 250-bar fill, giving roughly 160 sub-12 ft-lb shots or around 39 shots at the 30 ft-lb high-power setting in .22 calibre. It pairs a fully shrouded match-grade barrel with a half-inch UNF muzzle thread, an 11-shot rotary magazine, a two-stage adjustable trigger, and a hand-finished Minelli walnut sporter stock, making it a refined choice for hunting and precision field shooting.
The Huntsman name is one of Daystate's oldest model lines, dating back to the company's early sporter air rifles; the Revere revival modernised it with sidelever cocking and regulated power while retaining the classic walnut-stocked sporter look.
UK-market versions are capped at the sub-12 ft-lb legal limit; export and high-power versions in .22 reach about 30 ft-lbs. Walnut stocks are produced by the Italian stockmaker Minelli. Also available in .177, .20 and (export) .25 calibres.

Trajectory
What the round does downrange
Solved from the muzzle figures and the bullet. The dashed rule is the effective range on the record, and the crosses are the steps the solver returned.
No load solved for this record yetThe flight path is computed from a cartridge and a bullet. This record has no ammunition filed against its chambering, so there is nothing to solve.
