Been watching your videos for a while now and must say you have good rifle skills and you don't spend too much time talking yourself up like some others do. Well done from Bury Lancashire England 👍
Shit hot Rod! 477m with a .223, Well Done! That’s a hell of a lot of flight with a near metre of drop. Mate that’s gotta go Straight to the Pool Room!!! 😂
Hi Rod great footage my friend love it question please I have a Sytong clip on HT-66 on my 17HMR that I'm not that happy with can you recommend a clip on to replace it cheers JC
Not really my area of expertise as I have never used an NV add on, I've been running the HikMicro Alpex 4K day/night scope and amazing if you decide to go away from the clip on John.
Awesome footage, also started farming recently and had to get the 223 out for pest control during lamming season. May i ask what projectile, bullet tip you are using?
Thanks for the videos. Out of interest, do you use a 100mt zero? I'm assuming you don't set for an inch high at 100mt when using the onboard ballistic calculator?
That's nuts. Fantastic audio as well. Thanks for the work on your vids. Would be nice for Hikmicro to sort the audio on some of their other products (Falcon for one).
Nah, never felt a thing @1:21. Top shooting and yes, the sunsets are great. It is what my wife (born and raised in city) calls "Big Sky". She loves living in Central West NSW and would never return to the city, any city.
Some great marksman stuff here Rod. I could hear the wind in your mike at the start of this video, so i knew you were going to have a few issues to start with, but then with the moon out and all. What ranges you were shooting at was brilliant. Another great Video Rod, much appreciated. Just one thing? Shame there wasn't a big black panther about to nail mate..
What a cracking night out Rod. Pinpoint accuracy as usual from both of you.! I've used a 223 for years and love it, I've recently started using a .17 Rem too ( think they were the go to rifle in Australia for years when pelts were valuable, am I right in thinking that.?) It's a great little round and like shooting an air rifle with the moderator on it🤣 but not man enough for those sort of distances I wouldn't think. There's a English lad on RUclips that does a lot of long range shooting you might find interesting. Look for 260 Rips. He's always interesting, a cracking shot like yourself and there's no BS either. Keep up the good work. Best wishes 👍🇬🇧
Hey Paul. Thanks for the feedback mate. You're spot on with the .17rem, much better for the pelts. Shame they hold no value anymore. I've watched some of Ripley's videos. Seems like a pretty genuine fella. Appreciate the support mate 👊
Awsome mate, how you shooting these, off a tripid standing or using bipod rested etc, my best so far is 230m off tripod, pants in comparison 😆that was with 243 aswell , do love my 223 still though.
Wow, holy shit, what great long range shots, Rod. Do you use the fox fur ? I did it only in the winter time, when the fur is really dense. Greetings from Germany
I have a question: How do you work out a cost of a job ?. I am learning firearm safety code for Victoria so I can get a gun license and I am going to join a gun club to. Sorry if my grammar is not very good I have reading writing difficulties.
Rod, mate, another great video, those long range shots are bloody fantastic (your mate did well too). Hope you get the time to upload some more vids sooner than later. Cheers, PS, now you’ve got me thinking I want a bowl Spag Bol for dins you ba$tard! Haha!
The only way i could get that Snap out of a 222 rem round was to ad a percentage of pistol powder . You wound not be leave the difference it made . 55g would the mussel at over 4000 ft/ps . Mind you this was back in the 70s .
4000 fps out of a222 Rem using a home blend of powder that's just bat shit crazy , no body in the 70s owned a chronograph so you wouldn't really know velocity your dangerous loads were doing your lucky that you didn't wreck your rifle or did you ?
Welcome back Rod. Exceptional marksmanship mate. Enjoyed that.
Thanks champion. 👊
477 meter shot is sensational. Nice work Rod!
Thanks champion. As you probably heard in the video, I was pretty chuffed 😉👊
LOL! When you made that 477 shot I said holy sh!t and then YOU said it! I laughed my a** off. GREAT shot!
We think alike mate.
It was a 'holy shit' moment for sure Tommy
Incredible night on the foxes Rod. Great to see another of your videos. Cheers from Texas.
Thankyou David. Much appreciated mate 👍
Greetings from South Africa. Great videos
Many thanks mate 👍
Outstanding accuracy as normal by you 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks Paul. I think I'm getting there. 😉
I use to out some 55yrs ago, wish we had your gear back then,keep up the good work mate, an keep safe.
Thanks Tom. You too mate 👍
Stretching out very well.
Love the lrf and ballistics
Love your no nonsense approach Rod, and well done on the 477m vixen.
Thankyou
What a shot! Top stuff mate. I love the optic calculator.
Cheers mate 👊
Another excellent video Rod, well done.
Geoff. UK.
Thank you Geoff. Really enjoyed making this one mate. 👊
Been watching your videos for a while now and must say you have good rifle skills and you don't spend too much time talking yourself up like some others do. Well done from Bury Lancashire England 👍
Thanks mate. Much appreciated.
I just like sharing what I do and try to have some fun in the process. 👌
I was interesting to see how quickly bullet drop increases beyond 300m with .223. I like the ballistic calculator!
Me too mate. Drops more than one would expect once you get out past 300m. Especially with a 60m zero
Amazing shots!
Thanks mate 👍
Great vid Rod and even better shooting mate, very impressive, cheers Yogi 🤙✌️
Thanks legend. 👊
Love watching this video.
Reminds me that I need to have more confidence in my gear, and to get a LRF 🤣
I only run scopes with LRF now mate. A must in my opinion 👌
@RJMHuntingAustralia gotta sell a few of my Bog conversion kits and it will be the first thing I'll be buying for my TH50 👍
Bloody awesome work mate! Love the videos and the ability of thermal scopes just seems to be getting better all the time! Cheers
Certainly do mate. Thanks 👌
What sort of rounds are you using mate? Great video 👍🏼

That impact slap that let's you know you've struck bone, never get sick of that whack.

I'm running 55gr Sierra Blitz Kings in my 223, awesome projectile. 👌
Thanks for the videos. Out of interest, do you use a 100mt zero? I'm assuming you don't set for an inch high at 100mt when using the onboard ballistic calculator?
I zero at 56m mate. The check impact at 200m and 300m and tweak the ballistics till its spot on
Beauty, thx.
That's nuts. Fantastic audio as well. Thanks for the work on your vids. Would be nice for Hikmicro to sort the audio on some of their other products (Falcon for one).
Totally agree. Hence why I'm working with them to improve audio. Glad you enjoyed the vid mate.
Plenty of rain here in the UK mate, help yer self....!!! Great video as always.
Yeah I bet.
We have an East coast low just about to hit us, so it looks like we'll be pretty wet for the next few days. Thanks for watching 👍
What an awesome Chanel. Such a professional hunter, very impressive. Thank you. New Sub from England 🤜🏻🤛🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Much appreciated mate. Thankyou 👍
Good to see you back, getting bore of the other EotO, hahaha, not really. Really impressive shooting. Thanks for sharing.
Yeah I know, been a month since my last vid. Hard to juggle all the shooting and the editing. I have a couple more vids in the works atm mate👌
Does the holdover aiming point always remain in the screen or only when you activate the range finder.
Usually remains until you range something again. Unless you turn it off
Nice Shooting and Vid Rod, Lot of work in it all. 👍
Always pretty involved Kevin but I wouldn't have it any other way 👌
Amazing video, got me stuffed how you keep it so still. Especially at those longer distances. Great work 👍
Thank you my boy.
Need to get out there with me and I'll show you 😉
Nice shooting Rod,can
you tell me what thermal you are running.

Awesome video, congrats on the PB at 477M 👏👏👌👍
Cheers buddy. Was a cracking trip. 👌
Cracking shot , a metre of drop ! Pukka😊
Thankyou mate 👊
Great content as always Rod. When will we see the Taipan X in action ?
Those white dots could be a cheap CMOS sensor in that unit. Prevalent in astronomy telescopes that are cheap. Cracking videos mate!👍
Thankyou mate.
I've since been advised it was a faulty sensor and it's been replaced 👌
@@RJMHuntingAustralia Good job! Mate. I do astrophotography and they appear over usage as a RGB pixel. I use software to remove them .
It must take you forever 🤔
Really enjoying your videos mate, thanks for making the effort. Great shooting. You've really dialled that rig. Doesn't happen by accident. Cheers PP
Hell of a shot on the last one Rod, Well done on another fantastic video 👍
Thanks buddy, took a few hours on the range and a fair bit of tweaking to get it bang on. Thrilled with the nights results with it though.
Glad you enjoyed it mate. Thankyou
He's like crammm...take that....got a howitzer out there
Haha. Not quite 😉
Amazing shoots champ, well done.
Thanks heaps mate.
Heaps of clean shots/kills impressive!
Thanks Craig 👊
Great marksmanship as usual

Nice work how long did it take you to set up the ballistic calculator and what ammo where you using

Bloody ell mate, you actually missed one in this session, like rockin horse shit that lol, congrats on the PB, mighty fine shot that bud
Lol. I have my faur share of misses mate.
Thanks Mick 👊
Another great vid.👍
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks
Half a Kilometre! That is insane
Yeah. It's getting out there
Great vid mate what distance do you zero the 223 at
I'm zeroed at 60m mate. Let the ballistics do the work from there after tweaking all the settings and data.
What a cracking night out Rod. Pinpoint accuracy as usual from both of you.!

Looking forward to the next episode from you. 🦊He'd better watch out 🤣
Awsome mate, how you shooting these, off a tripid standing or using bipod rested etc, my best so far is 230m off tripod, pants in comparison 😆that was with 243 aswell , do love my 223 still though.
90% of the time I'm using my tripod mate. Sometimes a sandbag or the matchbox II over the roof of the vehicle.

Thanks, certainly a productive night mate. 👌
Bạn bắn súng tuyệt vời. Những con thú hoang, Không thể chạy khỏi bạn..Hi 🇦🇺👍.
Thanks mate 👊
Wow, holy shit, what great long range shots, Rod.
Do you use the fox fur ? I did it only in the winter time, when the fur is really dense.
Greetings from Germany
Shame the panther 2.0 is having DPC issues but the BC is working well. Great vid.
congrats, top shot 💪🏻
Thankyou 👊
First time viewer Rod 🙂.
That was some awsome shooting.
I will have to look at a HikMicro thermal scope.
Thanx.
Thanks Richard. Welcome to the channel mate👌
That last shot is a cracker! How are you calculating the required holdover?
Spent several hours on the range tweaking the data for the internal ballistic calculator.
Spot on once it's dialed in 👌
U are such a crack shot how long did it take u to get that good. Awesome video
Fuggin shootin Tex! Sat here with the brother and we both agreed it wouldn't be a .223 after seeing the thumb. Should have known better. cheers.
Massive Exit Wound? Overkill always preferred to underkill. You seem to be honing your already fine skills - :-) 223 is an impressive calibre
Overkill is just a myth mate. 👌
477 , nice work 👍
@@RJMHuntingAustralia
Underkill is a term used by those who cannot get the job done the first time
Quite possibly 😉
Thanks

Hey mate, what’s your tripod setup for these?

How do you charge yourself out? Hourly, day rate ect?
Generally hourly rate. Really depends on the job and location mate.
Is that the hikmicro IR or thermal

No problem mate.
Pricing can vary depending on the job description and location.
I generally charge an hourly rate
Where abouts are you based Rod?
I'm S/W of Sydney NSW mate.
Rod, mate, another great video, those long range shots are bloody fantastic (your mate did well too).
Hope you get the time to upload some more vids sooner than later.

Speed isn't a priority for me anymore mate. Knowing what the projectile is doing and corresponding bullet drop is the key

Bout time you got some work. lol
Nice aimbot mate, that's why i purchased the Pard a couple of years ago they were ahead of the game with the hold over function.
Thanks mate, certainly easier than trying to remember all your holdover marks.
