    Great session on the squirrels there Richard and top-notch shooting too: quality!
    My only raised eyebrow with the kit is that Revere rifle evidently has quite a loud manual safety (engaging and disengaging), which would put me off using the safety at all during pest control.
    I think I'd rather stalk unloaded and only cock the rifle when the next pest appears, than risk that click alerting them to my presence.
    My own method of recording is to just leave the camera (i.e. day & night scope) recording from start to finish, rather than risking losing a chance when pressing the start button each time. I was out shooting rats this week with @Robin_Foxer and @Vermin_Control_Scotland, and those wee grey critters often don't hang around for long.
    It means hours more footage to process but hey-ho it works for me.
    The Venator looks a great outdoor BB plinking solution for those of us here in the north-east of Scotland, where icy winter temperatures mean CO2 plinkers are kept in the cupboard for warmer summer use. Obviously the £560 price tag is about 3x to 4x the price of the CO2-powered Umarex HK MP5K PDW I recently bought, but the advantage of year-round use definitely has appeal. Also 450FPS with 0.35g (5.4grain) steel BBs means 2.4ft/lbs, which is ok for a plinker.
    By the way Mat, Airsoft-style (AEG) guns like this do still have a spring and piston, but the trigger activates the motor to wind-back the piston against spring tension then release it all in one movement. That can mean a longer lock-time than with a CO2-powered 'semi-auto' rifle, how did you feel this electric version compared?
    Great video gents, cheers. Russ

      The safety catch did sound a little loud, but I wonder if the camera/microphone was a factor? I can operate it silently on my Revere. That said, I can't see how cocking a rifle is going to be any quieter than flicking a safety catch. And have you ever used a GoPro? They suck up battery life like you wouldn't believe. Leave it on and recording and you'd be changing battery every 30 mins...

    • @RussDouglas222
      @RussDouglas222 2 роки тому +1

      @@reservedone1791 Yikes, wasn't aware of the GoPro power usage.
      But cocking's got to be quieter than that resounding CLICK on or off.
      Anyways on our recent (Tuesday) rat shoot I left the Pard008S-LRF recording from the start & only changed battery once after maybe five hours with it on IR #1.
      This (continuous recording) means gigs & gigs of videos to go through, but between balancing on crutches / not falling off my bucket seat, it's a price I'm happy to pay not to miss recording any good shots.
      Cheers. Russ

    so very interesting the different hunting techniques. Rioh kinda clunks out into the woods and pops 3 before he gets to the feeder. Hauls out the cover net / blind making what I would have thought lots of noise... and within a short time bags one... Now Matt, you would have moved out so so quietly, had the blind already set up,... whispered to the camera or Nicky, about the set up etc...
    From what Rich said at the beginning, there has been little to no hunting in these woods for a very long time and my guess is that the Tree Rats just aren't afraid of much.....well the fun stops now... How does the ol' phrase go,... "It's all fun and games til someone gets shot" ...guess the tree rats haven't heard that one... maybe its just something we say here in the States... well they'll learn... Rich, nice off hand shooting... well you used your knees but still...

      Hi - the benefit of a camo net hide is that you can put it up in seconds. I simply tied it between a couple of trees and that was it.

    • @dforr2981

      @@richsaunders6515 it was awesome. You were quick and shooting in minutes. Matt... he wears head to toe camo... even with a blind. You were just shooting and wow... too many tree rats my friend. I wonder if that last shot took an hour for them to come in because you went out and picked them up. Either way good day.

      Hi Ian. Sorry about that. It's sometimes hard to keep track of numbers but it was I believe 10 squirrels in the end. I was out pretty much all day from first light until shortly before dusk and I was using Air Arms Diabolo Field pellets 4.52mm. The distance to the feeder was around 19 metres and from memory, the stalking shots were 20 - a little less than 30 metres. I hope that helps and thanks for watching.
