Autumn is a prime time for controlling grey squirrels, and Mat Manning has set up a peanut feeder to assist with the cull. And it seems that the cooler weather has made the rodents hungry, as Mat is treated to some seriously busy shooting at the feeding station.
If you like to incorporate the latest tech into your shooting, we’ve got the ATN Laser Ballistics Rangefinder on test. This very accurate rangefinder doesn’t just tell you how far away the target is, it also tells you how to adjust your aim to make sure you hit it.

Nice hunt in the states we mostly use shotguns, but I like how you actually hunted next to a tree and simply used a proper aim and made clean shots. Great job sir.
So look forward to the days when we get a new show !! Thanks Matt.
Thank you for watching. It's great to get such positive feedback.
All the best. Mat
There's a productive outing!
Good show this week again, Mat.
Thanks very much, Reg.
All the best. Mat
footage was spot on
Great show and video, Mat!😁🛠️ I just bought a Umarex .177 CO2 B B revolver for target practice! Cheers!😁🛠️
Excellent show Mat. Peanuts; the crack cocaine of the squirrel world :)
They certainly seem to get hooked on them.
Cheers. Mat
Very nice work! Good job on that shooting, very enjoyable video. Thanks for the work.
Thank you.
All the best. Mat
Excellent show as always Mr. Manning. That "Strange Looking" Squirrel's coloration reminded me very much of our "Fox Squirrels" that we have here in the U.S.A., although they are a bit darker on top, they have darker legs and a yellow/orange belly fur on them. That one you shot looked almost as if a "Fox Squirrel" and a "Grey Squirrel" would have crossbred. Here in the States we have a beautiful variation on the "Grey Squirrel" that is nearly completely Jet Black all over, I wonder if you'll ever have that colour phase in Britain some day. Anyway great show, and good hunting to you. William C. from the U.S.A.
Hi William.
That's very interesting. Yes, we already get a few black squirrels here.
All the best. Mat
I'm sure you've likely seen these before, but this is a photo of an American Fox Squirrel

nice video...I wonder how long it'll be before we're getting auto adjusted scopes..With the push of a button it'll zero itself to whatever distance you'd need...
Excellent shooting.. that FAC Daystate sure packs a wallop on those squirrels.
It does hit hard - especially at that range!
Cheers. Mat
Great shooting mat .. brilliant show as usual

Great surf n turf barbecued squirrel n Rabbit / YUM YUM
nice bit of squirrel shooting :-)
Thanks.
All the best. Mat
Apparently they also love pumpkin, an ideal way to get rid of them after Halloween ;)
Thanks for the tip, Rob. That's got to be worth a try.
All the best. Mat
The best. Thank you
Thank you for watching.
All the best. Mat
Mat I really enjoy your squirrel hunting and I'm looking forward to hopefully getting a Daystate Huntsman Regal,(I've hunted with.22lr),and seeing how well pcp does I'm thinking.177 should be just fine 🌻
great show mat
Thanks Rick.
All the best. Mat
Great exhibition on how to do it, 30+ ft.lbs also help .
It certainly gave them a wallop at that range...
Cheers. Mat
I always love watching your shooting video...
I also use spring airgun but sadly without scope. I always wana try out shooting with scope and for starters which one do you recomended and what price should it be
MUY BONITO LOS VIDEO DE CASARIA CON RIFLE DE AIRE
I just found your channel and I thought I was listening to Sada plays channel. You guys sound alike.
This host is my favourite! Quick Question! why does your MK4 need a FAC?
Great vid as always buddy
Thanks very much.
All the best. Mat
Good work on the squirrels. roughly how much energy does that air rifle produce at that range? I use a .22lr at about 50m which gives me just under 100ft\lb with subsonic ammo. Its very quiet and knocks squirrels over nicely.
Nice bag of squirrels Matt.
atb t ..
Thanks very much. It was a good outing.
All the best. Mat
Epic
Round home. The grays post lookout's. And he is a seasoned vet that screams when I put the scope on site. have to scan for this(rat) to kill off the alarm. All in a day at Tennessee USA 73 om kv4li
So how many did you get? Looks like a grey squirrel feast for you.
Hi Mat, what's the foot lbs on that FAC rifle? I am a FAC & shotgun licence holder and thinking of going on to FAC rated airrifles.
I'd love to see some high speed video of this
What is that camo head gear and where did you get it?
might be a silly question but does that atn rangefinder work at night
Hi Terry.
Good question. It doesn't have night vision so you'd need a light source to see what you're pointing it at.
All the best. Mat
a night vision range finder would be so handy i cant understand why nobody is making 1
Matt, are those peanuts raw or roasted?
What you do with em after? Eat them?
1st comment :)
Why do u never use a magazine?
Sam Chown scope so low cant fit it under scope
Hi Sam.
Henry is correct - I like to mount the scope lower than the magazine permits. I also find the gun is a fraction more accurate in single-shot mode.
All the best. Mat

Did you get permission to use "the squirrel hunter channel" method of taking squirrels. Looks like a patent infringement lawsuit to me.
