I'm in Canada, and your discussion on targets,.got me to order some from Amazon right after this show....I like that Remington Sight too.... Good squirrel shooting by the way. Thanks for the video.
Great job on the advert for the VHTV shoot meet, a great weekend to be had for sure and some great prizes to raise money for two excellent charity's ! Cheers Matt
Hi guys, i'm thinking about entering the world of vermin control and small game hunting. I know how to handle an air rifle etc, but i'd just like to know what rifle you would suggest under £1000. Would you suggest 1.77 or 0.22? For obviously reasons it would have to be non FAC. Also, i'll be using a hand pump. I'd prefer a lighter rifle and possibly with a black synthetic stock and full length barrel. So please could you suggest the best rifle. Thanks.
Hi Mat, what's the best advise to getting permission to shoot on local farms and estates. Should I just go and see the land owner or write to them so not to disturb the owner to much? Great videos by the way
Hi Jono. We'd recommend sending a letter first, and then follow up with a visit a week or two later. Try to think if you know of anybody who is already acquainted with the people you are going to approach - they may be able to give you a recommendation, which counts for a lot, or even arrange an introduction. Helping local shoots with beating during the pheasant shooting season is also a good way to establish contacts, and most landowners are more likely to grant permission to insured airgun shooters.
Thanks for the advise Mat. Do most insurance companies offer air rifle shooting insurance or is it more of a specialist field? I'll join the BASC too which I'm sure will also help. Thanks again.
Jono Kent Hi Jono. BASC membership includes one of the most comprehensive insurance packages you can get, and they do specialist membership/insurance for airgun shooters. Have a look at their website.
Wrap some cheap spoons around metal pipe or a metal rod then , something in the middle to stop them moving .I got my 8 spoons for 88 p from the supermarket , every so often you will need to straighten them .And wont last as long as normal spinners, but hey only 88p or so.......
I understand they are not a native species, but i never here in the united states saw a grey squirrel or any squirrel chew bark off the trees and cause damage, i have seen rabbits eat the bark. Maybe squirrels do i just never seen it and the trees grow real good.
Nor have I. Still think they’re little assholes. 5 years no cherries, they jump on my cedars in winter and crack them, and dog up the yard. Worst yet they have been stealing tomatoes pulling them down taking a bite throwing them away. Vile species.
After the squirrels were shot and he was talking to the landowner,its not the safest thing to rest the forearm across the barrel of the gun,pellet gun or regular firearm.Its also not a safe thing for a young hunter to see.They pick up the habit of doing the same
Mat's gun is on a sling on his shoulder, pointing in a safe direction throughout the conversation. What you can see him leaning on, and have mistaken for a gun, are the hide poles featured earlier in the show.
I am a new subscriber from the U.S. and enjoy watching your shows very much.Mat looks like he is having fun at his craft which is a plus.

Glad we inspired you to get out there and shoot some targets...

I love the fact that they take the time to explain why they kill the animals they do
Another great show, thankyou for posting.

Hi mat, for squirrel hunting what would be best a 800 fps 1.77 or a 600 fps .22 ? I would like to hear you're opinion thanks
35 yards better 22 for long shot Like 45 to 60 yards better is 177
35 yards better 22 for long shot Like 45 to 60 yards better is 177
I think The boar target is very well priced I'm quite impressed by that
Bellissima carabina. Il costo?
Another excellent show
Do you charge for pest control
Gimme ur gun
Set up a polo at 20 yds with paper behind and shoot a pellet through the hole of the polo, now that would be a challenge!! :)
good hunting, where did you get your hat from?
Try searching for hunting hats on Amazon.
Search for the Radar hat.
They are AU$26.00 on Amazon. Search for knitted peak beanie.
Nice one Mathew, enjoyed the squirrel shooting, the metal front on the feeder is a good touch with bashing the hell out of it ..
atb t ..
Yes, the metal front does help - not just because of pellets hitting it, but also because squirrels like to chew the wooden hopper.
great stuff again .. good job mate

hi matt is your mk4 fac
Yes it is. Just below 30ft/lb.
Why use Fac , there's no need, most people have sub 12, to me it's a cop out on your part.
Try a pollo mint might be a bit of fun lol
Can you repeat details from the News again please, can't catch the field sports details
whats that feed? Animals loving it!
