I'm looking into pest control mainly around sheds, around 10ft distance, would an airpistol be worth trying?
thoroughly enjoyed this very informative look at the ft/lbs trajectory of the air gun pistols, air rifles and different calibres.I have been a pest control officer for a long long time and have seen the Air rifle evolve as time went on, I agree on the majority of what you have talked about But the one thing that I disagree on is untrained people who have NO idea about most forms of pest control in their gardens, Most haven't a clue when it comes down to shooting vermin in the garden, and I doubt if most have never looked at where the SHOT or pellet will go after they have pulled the trigger, let alone if the weapon they have purchased will KILL what they attempting to KILL, that brings me around to The Pest control act ,And that it is against the law to make any form of "Pests to suffer" and that vermin should be Dispatch cleanly and not to cause suffering, If you shoot any type of weapon in your garden, and the projectile leaves YOUR boundary you can be prosecuted. I inform the Police on any shoot I have to use any of my Air rifles, no matter where it is.
I am an engineer in the USA with a small business out of my little shop, and I have to say you do a really good informational vid with what seems to be pretty scientific with methodology and good attention to detail. But it is not the guns that require a license. It is a overbearing government that requires a license. That is why I wish you would take your expertise and methodical thinking, and move to the USA, where you would have much more to work with. Any government that disarms the citizenry is more dangerous than a armed "adult" citizenry. Just about any "toy" can hurt people if they are not used correctly. I know. As kids, my brother had a drum set. Reject the baby sitter. We are adults. Now there is no shortage of government baby sitting in the USA, but a 12 year old kid can still hunt small game with a 12 gauge semi auto shotgun, and sometimes, the child even shot a dangerous criminal who broke into their home. The right of self defense is a basic human right, and you can't have a civil society with out that right,---for long.
Can you estimate the power with a suitcase weighing scale strap? 😈
we don't have telephone directories anymore Andy but Argos catologue's are probably the best free alternative, get family members to pick them up when out shopping ;)
Me, casually glancing over at a 620ft/lb Bushbuck .45 I ordered online... God Bless the USA!

Simply incredible. So informative and I only wished I had watched it sooner. I only started shooting air rifles 6 months ago after a break of many years from firing mainly 7.62 rounds (many ‘000s). For me now as a range shooter, obtaining a close grouping on a paper target at 40-55 yards is a real challenge with sub 12 ft lb rifles. Obtaining it consistently is my goal and takes a lot of patience and skill. I had considered obtaining an FAC gun and license but after watching this, I think that I will perfect my short distance work before considering a longer range.
You are a very good spokesperson for the sport of air gunning. Thank you.
No doubt. I really appreciate how responsible he is in videos like this. debunking lazy cruel hunters and people thinking they can use air guns as home defence.
He's a great presenter / entertainer. Also very informative.
About time this topic was covered all in one video. I have seen the question 'What gun do I need to dispose of vermin/pests?' on many FB airgun groups from all around the world. In the future, my friend, I'll be sending them to this informative video.
Thanks buddy!

Hi Andy, a very good sett of tests. As an FAC holder it would be really helpful if someone did some tests using variable power FAC rifles. You don't want all the power shooting in a barn, but you do when you step back into the field. Keep up the good work. Richard
This is probably on of the most informative videos I have seen about airguns. This should be the first step to picking an air rifle. If you know the power you need you know what to pick.
isn't it? Andy da man
i would only add from my experience, if you see a $10 or $17 bb gun, get it! every one is fun, and every one you learn from.
.
One of my very favorites in my growing collection is a $17 walmart daisy buck. I reach for it more than any other. I just added my first break barrel, a .22 I nicknamed "Magnus" after the first shot, 32 foot pounds, smells like victory. Another favorite is a $34 walmart daisy 880 multi pump that I put a reflex green dot on for another $14.
.
I figured "let's stimulate the economy" right? So I got a CO2 beretta bb pistol with full auto. It adds a new dimension to the stable of air breathers. All of them together probably total $300. And I'll be thirsty for my first PCP some day, but for now I got a team to run here, and a weapons room to build (Kingsman style? Terminator? So many options)

A great review Andy,many thanks for putting all your time & effort into making your videos
This excellent stuff Andy. Straight talking and right to the point
Thanks Andy I found this very informative
Thank you, Andy and AAR team! I really enjoy your informative videos.
Very well thought out and very thoroughly tested. Excellent and usable information!
I've learnt more about air rifles/pistols in 30.58 minutes than the last 5 years and realise that there's an awful lot of misinformation and old cods-wallop being talked in shops and local 'experts'. Top marks, great posting.
WoW ... What an education I just got. Had to stop and rewind several times, wanting to understand it better. Thank you
Great vid, Thanks!
Jfi : I use the wife's shopping catalogues, not the thick outer cover ones. ( she's not happy ! : ) )
My R10 SE at 11.6 and Ultra at 10.4 at close range will fully penetrate between 82 and 76 pages. Using AA 16gr and 13.44 falcons ( .22 obviously). Both will rupture pages as deep as 230 pages.
A new compacted catalogue is amazingly tough, my .22 easily go's thru 1/2" plywood
Wife's happiness is very important use extreme caution in the future I don't know you but seems like a good idea for a long lasting relationship happy shootings
Nice review andy
As always cheers 🥂
Thanks Andy - very well done! You describe what I have always referred to as the "Maximum Effective Range" - which is the farthest distance that the rifle, optics and SHOOTER can (consistently) hit the Kill Zone with ADEQUATE power to make a humane kill. Obviously, all things being the same, a rifle enough power for sparrows at 25 meters might need to be limited to 10 meters for rabbits - glad that you point out the energy loss over the distances as many people used to .22 LR rimfires seem to forget this. As you mention, bottle caps are about the size of the kill zone on most (12 fpe pellet gun sized) pests and small game - they were my favorite target when I was learning to shoot. I've replaced bottle caps with 1" spinners now so I don't have to go searching for them. Nothing beats real world data but I like the Chairgun program as well; find it very useful for visualizing trajectories, unfortunately Hawke is no longer supporting it. ATB from Ontario; Canada.
All birds are protected in U.K. with good reason. Sparrows, once common are now rarely seen (probably all killed in Canada!). There are some exceptions (usually corvids and types of pigeon if crops need to be protected) which I don’t have time to go into, but the information is out there.
@@lordcharfield4529 Habitat destruction and over population of humans with their associated pollution is what kills off wildlife, not a couple of birds shot (legally) for being a nuisance. No shortage of sparrows around here, I have 10 acres of rural property with over 60 species of birds - including 5 different types of sparrows. Most non-game birds are protected in Canada (including ravens) but there is a number of species that are classed as "pests". Most of these pests are not native to Canada (English Sparrows and Starlings for example) and are a threat to the native species. If you are concerned about sparrows you are more than welcome to take them (all) back, I'm sure that my barn swallows are tired of having their nests taken over and will be pleased to see them gone. Cheers!
Way too many pests here and not enough gunners i think.
THE BEST REVIEW CHANNEL ON THE NET.
1st class, educational presentation 🤓
Great job Andy excellent video , one of your best and likely my favorite , lots of knowledge gained, and very entertaining . Cheers
Wow! felt the lesson down into my soul. Thanks this is the best I ever watched
Real education . This video is enough for all about power. Thanks Andy.
You're are very knowledgeable man Andy, and I enjoy your videos, keep up the good work!
Excellent man. Thank you.
Living in the US, I’m not limited to power. I have a Benjamin Maximus and Marauder f&t model, both in .22. I’m actually wanting to tune the Maximus down in power to use for pests closer to buildings. I am doing this to reduce the likelihood of pass through on squirrels and birds. Torn between a 9 ft/lb tune and a 12 ft/lb with shots being no longer than 30 yards
For 30 yds a 12ft/lb rifle would be good for small game with little to no passthrough, Use 15.89 hades or jsb diablo and youre good to go.
Im in the uk so only have 12 ft/lb but have no probs with rabbits, squirrels and the like.
That was an excellent video - thanks for your effort in producing.
Great work, Andy! Clear and concise, you really made a connection between the math and the field. Nobody has an excuse for poor shooting ethics after watching your presentation. Oh, and you are punching WAY, WAY above your weight with Mrs. AAR!
Thank you for this great research and test and this explanation.
Thanks for such a informative tutorial! You explained this topic very well🔫
AirGun ammo of different shapes and designs can retain more of its energy down range than other shapes, specifically the cylindrical lead slug/pellet.
As most AirGun enthusiasts will recall, The Sheridan pneumatic multi-pump air rifle originally had its own ballistically superior cylindrical bullet shaped pellet or slug designed for it, and that's why the 700 fps .20 cal. Sheridan model CB pneumatic AirGun shooting Sheridan cylindrical lead pellets should always have more energy at the point of impact down range than a 700 fps .22 cal. Pneumatic multi-pump air rifle shooting a diabolo shaped lead pellet of the same weight as the Sheridan slug.
A good comparison would be my 1972 Sheridan CB Blue Streak shooting 14.3 grain .20cal. Benjamin cylindrical lead pellets and my 1976 Crosman 1400 PumpMaster shooting 14.3 grain .22cal. Crosman Domed lead pellets.
There are ballistic graphs/charts online that would show how much energy each pellet retains at the point of impact.
I guarantee that the Sheridan cylindrical bullet/pellet always retains a much higher percentage of its muzzle energy at the point of impact.
Excellent , useful , instructive video. Thanks Andy.
Yes very informative Andy . Mind blowing what damage that '303🤔' can cause. Thanks for taking the time to produce this. Love your work 🇬🇧
Very educational and entertaining content, and I highly commend your focus on safety and commonsense. Watched a few of your videos now and love them - subscribed and thanks from an airgun rookie.
Superb informative video...I have spent many hours watching many a video trying to find this information out and you wrap in up very comprehensively in one 30 min video. Thanks Andy
Very well presented Andy.
I've watched a few videos recently with people from other countries saying that the 12ft lb rifle is just a toy, well im quite happy for my kids to play with toys, I very much doubt they'll be as happy to let their kids to play with a sub 12ft lb rifle. That being said I was surprised to see the damage the 303 did and wounder what it would actually take to stop it.
I have just ordered two dozen bottles of premium Belgian beer on the strength of this video.
Thanks Andy
That was excellent and was made so interesting as it did not require the viewer to have a maths degree to understand the results
He did a great job applying the scientific process. This goes to show that air riffles should be treated with the same level of respect & safety as firearms. Agreed “proper, safe & responsible airgun handling”
Thanks andy , very informative. The amount of work is appreciated .
Fantastic info Sir. Really informative and this is a really great watch. Cheers.
I've very recently become interested in air rifles, but have been into conventional arms since I was 12.
Andy, you're the best!! I haven't bought so much as a pack of BBs yet, but I'm learning a lot from your YT videos.
TYVM!
This is one of the best videos I've ever watched on tube tube. On any subject . So thorough and detailed and complete and comprehensive and scientific. . . Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it! thanks for watching. Andy
Excellent video. Thank you.
Andy, I dairy almost daily and you are correct about pesting. The all in one pellet test is another good example. Ex ,if you have a line of birds on a fence line with the shooter at 40 yards in the place where he only see's one bird. He shoots with .22 at least 3 but usually 4 birds fall dead, but with a .177 you will only get 2 birds to fall dead 2-10 times. This is important IMO as well because here in the US where small man syndrome is leading indicator of stupidity. There are to many shooting .25 and .30 on farms dairies etc. The Dairy I shoot I will only allow .177. I wish more shooters took the time to understand momentum and power or potential damage after pass through. Good video Thank you
An excellent video explaining what most ignore about air rifles. I have a rule of thumb of 6 ftlb at the target for a well placed humane dispatch which as your figures (and any of the software) will bare out is around 40-50m for a sub 12 .22. As most pcp's these days have the sub1" accuracy at that range, this gives the accurate shooter more than enough for all but the most pesky pigeon. Accuracy is the answer and knowing your gun/scope combo and practice is the only way to convert to success, all the power in the world won't help if you can't hit the target.
Chairgun appears to no longer be supported by MTC and is no longer available on the app store and wont run on MAC sadly but Strelock (basic) will work very well
Great video. Lots of cool airguns in here!
Me 21 years old loading my 6.5 creedmor with over 1800ft-lbs shooting at a steel plate :) gotta love America
I have a huben k1 80ftp gun on a .22. Enough for the range or pestcontrol. Its also enough to shoot slugs. And semi auto function great gun lot of power
Great informative review, know your rifle/scope/pellet choice and know your limits and field craft.
Another great video more info then i needed and glad i stayed for the whole video ...
Your reviews are of great help to decide what to buy.
I have never tried chairgun, I have always shot within my means and I have shot airguns since a teenager , only this year have I joined a club and purchased a range finder and what a difference knowing the range of the target makes invaluable in my mind.
That's what mil-dots are for.
@@tomkelley7174 for years I had a duplex reticule lol because the scope was awesome an old Bushnell dusk till dawn.
I now have a new Nikko sterling panomax very impressed with it a really bright image and half milldot wide angle.
@@waynejones3413 Bushnell makes some good scopes. They used to make the mil dot reticle, which was the most useful for me. I look at a Horus or any sort of tree-type reticle and just see clutter. Rather use a duplex than a Christmas tree.
This is an awesome video very informative and interesting well done AAR
Cool test Andy, Very informative
Hugely enjoy your reviews and thanks to the insights offered, have made a great recent purchase of an RM8 UC. Great presentation style and clarity too. Thank you for all your (considerable) efforts.
Good video. Well done.
I totally agree with you brother on CO2 pistols and Pest Control. However A PCP pistols are an entire Lee different matter all together. I have a Diana bandit in .22 shoots FAC 650 ft./s with a 16 gr. pellet, and will shoot a golf ball every single time at 40 yards with a three power scope. Excellent review thank you.
Stunning video, nothing more can be said, you nailed it.
Andy
Absolutely fascinating coverage of these airguns, interesting and remarkable stats too; I've owned many over the years, but with nothing like today's power. Looking back to earlier days, starting with a BSA 'Diana', Meteor Cadet Major, a 'GAT pistol. Webley Nemesis; the BSA 'airsporter' was quite powerful as was the German 'Original', for that time. Many thanks Andy.
Thank you very much for all you work and info. Much appreciated by all AIR users
Bullet resistant material is not totally dependent on hardness - energy dissipation is more important in modern vests, glass and amour. Many sheets of paper are excellent energy dissipaters .
Great reviews Andy injoy a lot.
Andy this is a great video with every thing explained in a clear way. Congrats for that from El Salvador in Central America

Yes mr show off we know, but you also have trigger happy police that have the right to shoot you over something stupid. We are the nanny state, you are the police state. All those guns around made the police paranoid and all powerful.
Was it with texans and killing God's animals ? Bad karma,my friend. Once you get bored of animals,let's hope you don't move on to humans.
NOPE THANKS With respect and as someone who worked with many awesome Brits for years, there’s no use discussing American firearms rights or their merits with about 95% of Englishmen. It’s an utter waste of time. It’s one of the biggest disconnects between our respective cultures.

Excellent test Andy really appreciated going to the lengths to prove the lethality of 12ft/lb UK limit and something I can take on board in my line of work.
Really fine channel Sir! I just found you. I live in Texas. Our gun laws are a little different. Still, I got started with BB guns in the 60’s & still love shooting them for plinking. Thank you for controlling your comment section, for being respectful, & family oriented. Too rare on YT as you may have noticed.☝🏻
Thank you for your very kind words. I dislike the amount of language that is all too common place these days and I realise 5% of my audience are women and around 10% are under 18. So I seem to spend as much time controlling the comments as I do filming sometimes, but that is the price of doing this, so I accept this and will continue to do my best to keep it as clean as possible. Thank you again for your kind words and thank you for watching. Regards Andy.
Best regards to you Andy!
yes, we have the second ammendment in the US, but you still go through a background check to buy a firearm. To get a carry license you go through additional background checks along with a class, finger printing, range test, and permitting with the state in which you live. Yes, we can own a firearm, but we still have to go through background checks. Most crimes are committed by people who did not go through the required checks but instead have stolen weapons from family and friends or that were purchased illegally on the street.
The requirements vary state to state. For instance, while I did need to go thru the NIC check, fingerprinting was not required. As well, to carry there are now no permits required here. When I bought my 50 cal pistol, I simply ordered it and it was delivered to me, no checks at all, all I had to do was sign the delivery receipt.(muzzle-loader flintlock)
@@lochinvar00465 Black powder pistol. Try to have a 9mm pistol delivered to your home. BATFE will bring it to you.
@Mark Kollmer If you can you get that kind of pressure in a .50 pistol small enough to holster, you must be one heck of an engineer. I'd invest in that.
@ihatetacos theresa6616 no, that is not a plan for freedom and stopping government over reach as well as protecting homes and lives
An air gun is not a firearm neither is black powder in the US no background check needed just take what you want off of the shelf and go to the checkout stand and pay for it
Really great vid!!!

Well you wouldn't be on a ship headed to the new world, that's for sure. Wouldn't have to be.
Point taken and these same authorities don’t understand when you regulate the public only the law abiding part of the public would obey these laws, leaving only the criminals and folks like me who don’t give a damn what these laws say cause I’m not giving up my defenses to totalitarianism.
Great video! I'm a science and numbers guy, so I love this stuff. Also makes me appreciate America even more. We have no rules on airguns at all, basically, other than the fact young children can't buy them and restrictions on where they can be shot (I live in town and cannot shoot in city limits, for example). But as far as ownership, as an adult I could order a 450 ft/lb PCP and have it delivered with no paperwork or license at all. Although, honestly, my favorites are springers that range from 14-30 ft/lbs, of which I have many (too many, really). Freedom, Baby! :)
And yet the government doesn't trust us with suppressors. (sigh)
@@Sagart999 Truth! 🤪
Actually many states in America deny you the right to order an airgun online and you need a permit to own.
@@adamreisman9187 No, not really. Just 6 or 7 states that are fairly restrictive. The others are just age restrictions, as I mentioned. The vast majority of states have little to no restrictions.
So glad to live in a free country
Definitely not a SPAM! Very informative!
I am not in agreement with having to have a license for an air rifle.
Beyond the moronic stupid of having to have a license to own are real gun.
Nor any type of rifle for that matter
Precision shooting (and of course responsible shooting) should be taught at school
Ultimate disrespect towards human adults..
Why not? The video shows how dangerous they can be at higher power so why shouldn’t they be licenced?
I had a 20 ft lb HW80 is used for pest control, I found that ideal for clean kills , personally I think the legal limit 12 ft lbs is too low, it can penetrate small pests but has no knock down power and leads to animal suffering. 20 ft lb on a crow dispatches it instantly .
Yeh, it is useless for wood pigeons, it is inhumane and causes suffering to the animal. My mates' cat caught a woody, the poor thing was in a right state after the cat mauled it, but it left it alive and walked off. The pigeon had shat itself, and it was walking around half dead with its head flopping about somewhat, we felt bad for it. He decided the best thing to do was to put it to sleep by shooting it. He got his rifle and shotted it through the head with a 22,12ft lb, gun, it took THREE point-blank range shots to end its life. Sad. But we had to do something for poor thing...
One off the best video out there . Best wishes Dave chubb
This is an excellent video; very well researched, thank you. There are now PCP pistols with both the power and accuracy for pest control. The Hatsan Sortie .22 has 16 ft.lbs muzzle energy and shoots a 5 hot group of 17 mm (about 2/3 inch) at 25 m.
An Excellent informative production good Sir, may I commend your diligent efforts.
Marcus Gault couldn't of said it better lol
Good video Andy. For humane pest control imho you need a fully stocked rifle of no less than 10ft pounds. You should also make sure your own marksmanship is up to scratch and you really know the gun you’re using . C02 replicas are fun guns for backyard plinking. There’s plenty hunting class rifles to choose from.
Excellent. There is always something new to learn.
I have the Crossman F4 and I completely LOVE that rifle. 1200fps with non led pelletts and 1000fps with led pelletts. It is an actual small game pellett gun. Its for squirrels, rabbit's, opossums, etc. I won't shoot an animal but it is an amazing rifle if you need to
Congratulations my friend, you're the best air gun presenter with the most interesting channel on the business. It's a delight to absorb all the valuable information, so eloquently presented.
Hear hear... :-)
I like his style, and the subjects he presents.
thank you for putting safety first.
The .20 conundrum reared its head in the 80s if memory serves me right. As well as high mounts. All in the quest for greater accuracy. I don,t pop anything off any more, I just shoot paper at a local, very friendly range. What amazes me are the amount of people who think more power will make them God like at 70 yards, as they put in groups at 30 yards, that look as though they were shooting in a hurricane. And why on earth would you want to wind up your FX mid session? Just because it cost them a lot of money? Accuracy is the name of the game. That only comes from practice, consistency and knowing your gear.(And knowing your quarry). As always another good one Mr AAR.
Superb video!
Great video. Lots of helpful information. Best take-away for me though, don't move to the UK.
A lot safer than your country
@@craigwilson9797 you can only have a sub 12ft/lb rifle just lol !!! Pathetic.

95 foot pounds - that's equivalent to the kinetic energy of an average-sized apple travelling at 80mph!

When I was about 10, I got a Red Ryder. I thought I could kill a bunny. I'm 35 years old now and I'm telling you that experience still haunts me to this day. DONT try to kill an animal unless you are CERTAIN you are going to kill it.

Greetings from Orlando Florida. Love your channel Andy.
Very informative Andy. Thanks
Regarding the killing power of air rifles. A couple of nights ago I was out shooting rabbits with an Air Arms .22 FAC Ultimate sporter XS Extra which is rated at 32 foot pounds. Pellets, Air Arms field heavy 18 grains. I was lying prone using a bipod and a rabbit appeared at a range of about 60 yards, measured with my range finder. I aimed for the head and fired. Much to my surprise, right behind the rabbit I shot at was another! The pellet went through the head of the first one AND the second one, killing both of them! Although in the past I've noticed that even at that range there is always an exit wound but I was amazed that there was still enough energy to cleanly kill the second rabbit.
Hearing all of this just made me realize how lucky I am to be in the US. I mean my bow does like 10 times more energy at the same distances.
Anyone in the UK can buy and shoot a bow of any power, use it to hunt though and your doing jail time.. I hate this place with a passion, if I could move to the US I'd be gone in a heartbeat lol
Friend, Canada laws suck, I would need a license as a grown man to own a air gun that shoots over 500 fps. I envy the US for gun laws
@@MDM1992 It's backwards. I can buy a crossbow that with the right setup (and the right crossbow) can drop anything but the largest game in the world yet can't buy myself a 40 ft/lbs air rifle without my FAC at which point i'm at the behest of an FEO and whatever mood he's in that day. I'm genuinely considering leaving Europe for the states as it's only getting worse by the day.
