- In this episode I decided to take head shots only. Even though it was a fairly windy day, my compact Lelya still proved to be a great tool in the fight against pest birds.
Enjoy watching!

Hello Sir,
Would Primus shooting sticks help to steady your weapon?
@@caninedrill_instructor5861, perhaps 🙂 Never used them before. I know the shaky image on some shots can be annoying. I'll do my best to rectify this, but you should know it's not always possible 🙂
@@AirRifleActivities
I wasn't criticising you.
I've seen other airgun pest control using them and thought you might find them useful.
The head shot king. Spectacular shooting 👍👍👍.
I appreciate it, Ian, and I'm glad you enjoyed the video 🤝
Yeah no problem. Just found your channel glad I did. Subbed up.👍👍👍
Thank you for another great video Alex, your marksmanship is top notch as usual, well done.
Geoff.
And I thank you for watching and for this great comment, Geoff 🤝 Stay safe and healthy, friend!

When one receives a performance of excellence all he can do is lower his head respectfully and say...."Thank You".
Thank you very much, Richard 🤝 Comments like yours are all a creator and shooter can ask for!
Really good shooting bud. Camera work is great. Clean kills and really effective. But i see what you mean with the risk of only taking head shots. I think we can all learn from this video. Keep them coming and stay safe my friend
Thanks, Marno 👍 You are spot on, friend - head shots may give spectacular results sometimes, but are difficult to execute and leave too much room to chance due to pigeon anatomy. Keep safe and healthy, brother 🤝
Kop Skoot! Well done sir. Cheers from Texas!
Hey, Mike 🙂 It's great you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching and stay safe and healthy, friend 🤝
Headshots are the best videos. Thank you.
Thank you for, friend 🙂 Some more of those on my channel. Enjoy. Cheers 👍
Challenge achieved, perfect. Thank you for this great video
And I thank you for watching and for the positive feedback, friend 🙂🤝
Man I'm your fan. Amazing headshots... hugs from Brazil!!!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you, friend, very kind of you 🙂 It's great to know I have fans from the far away exotic Brazil 🤝
Some great shooting here! And your videography is spectacular as usual.
Thank you very much, Stefano 🙂 Enjoy it, friend 🤝 And keep safe and healthy.
Thank you..as always a pleasure to watch... 🤩
And a pleasure to get such a nice comment, Jon 🙂 Thank you kindly 🤝
EDgun Leshiy sent me, and I automatically subbed. Look forward to watching more of your videos.
Thank you, buddy, it's great to have you 🤝 Enjoy the content 🙂
Absolutely great shooting!
I appreciate it, James, thank you ☺️
Pigeon- i just saw my friends brain explode, I'm going to fly away.
- coast is clear? Ok, I'm going back to the same area where my comrades brain just exploded. 😂
Something like that, yes 😄 Thanks for watching, bud.
Absolutely fantastic shooting. You must have been in the military. Please more videos.
Thank you so much, Tom 🙂 No, no military background here. I just started shooting back in 2015 and loved it ever since. Thanks again, friend, more content is coming, I'm always working on sth. Stay safe.
Wie immer ein Genuss Alex 😁👍 my Cats are crazy,whens Sees this Clip 😊 best Wishes Urs

big cinema! great shots. greetings from a fan from germany
Thank you, friend 🙂 I appreciate it and I'm glad you enjoy the content 👍
@@AirRifleActivities
You and your videos inspired me to buy a Lelya ;-)
@@leviathanntf322, I'm sure you won't regret your choice 🙂
just wondering. looks like the pellets are going straight tru em whit quite the power. would it not be better if the pellet dumped all its power into the target? i dont know if a hollowpoint would change that. Or if you would lose accurecy. And i assume you have tested alot of bullets and overpenetration is not a problem where your shooting. Great video looks like alot of fun, and greetings from a Non hunter.
You answered your own questions, buddy 🙂 Yes, HPs would solve that and they would dump more energy under the right velocity, but with them you lose some accuracy. Thank you for watching and the comment 🙂
@@AirRifleActivities dgy67dg
Brilliant video mate 👍
Thank you, Scott 🙂 I'm glad you enjoyed it, friend 🤝
Hola espectaculares tiros pero me gustaria saber si tienen control con los nidos de palomas o solamente matan las adultas
Thanks, amigo, and I wouldn't know about pigeons nests, they may nest tens of kilometres away.
Nice videos Brother.
Thanks, buddy, means a lot coming from a fellow shooter 🤝
Friend, I really enjoy your shooting at the pigeons, please do not ever stop doing it, I have a Hatsan 85 of 5.5 shot for shot but I have no leaguers to have a good time, through your hunting I enjoy a lot, I am from Lima-Peru, Goodbye.
Thank you, Stefano, it's so nice to get comments like this one 😊 I'm really sorry there's no one you can hunt with. On most of my outings I am alone too.
Cool stuff as usual , but please shoot the grey ones that are in numbers and leave the colored ones, there are not many at all.
Okay, mate, I really started shooting less of those 🙂
@@AirRifleActivities ❤
It's pity that it's forbidden 🚫in Germany 🇩🇪. Just would like do the same
It needs to be done, otherwise their numbers explode and the health hazard increases. Sorry it's not allowed over there by you.
Nice shooting
Thank you, friend 🙂
Achievement Unlocked:Ouch!! My Head Hurts!!
😄 That was a good one, thanks, Erik 😊
Great job. What miserable birds they are. Just hideously ugly. Btw, when you are whispering the shooting distance, I feel like I'm there taking part in the action. 😂😂
That last pigeon died like 3 times before coming to it's last position. It would've been hilarious if a cat would've came and take it (4 times then). 😂
Thank you, friend. I really hope that I can make you feel as if you are there with me on my pest control session. I hope even more so in my latest videos 😉 Lots of cats in them, by the way - the felines know me and they come running every time I get there, they know my presence means fresh pigeons 😉
@@AirRifleActivities You are doing a great job. When the cats steal from the decoys they are very funny, I don’t know why. 😂😊
Real nice footage 🎯 , nice shooting head shots outstanding accuracy 🎯
As always, thank you for the great comment and for being a loyal viewer, Phillip 🤝🙂
Just joined.. Cracking shots.. Is this in UK.. Or u shooting in another country... Get sum shooting sticks.. U never misd
Thanks, friend 🤝 No, not the UK, but it's still in Europe. Thanks for watching and the advice too 👍
You make very beautiful videos congratulations
Thank you kindly, friend, glad you enjoy them, cheers 😊🤝
That’s some pretty crisp scope cam video considering the price point of scope and a phone camera.
Thanks buddy, they perform well indeed 👍
This guys videos deserve way more upvotes per view. Come on guys.
Thank you for the support and appreciation, Dave 🙂 I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
фантастические убийства в голову🔥🔥
спасибо что продолжаете радовать нас своими видео🙏🙏🤗🤗
@@Sawyer12457 thank for going back in time and watching my earlier videos too, mate 😊🤝
Great shooting thanks, looking forward to the next one
Thank you so much, Michael 🙂 The next one is coming in a couple of days 👍
Just what I’ve been looking for, just popped up in my feed lol
Enjoy, mate! 🙂 I really have to make another one of those...
Veeery nice footage, I love when they're brains explode 😜 😆
Thanks, Adrian, enjoy 🙂
Gun sounds like when u flick a empty gas cylinder to see if anything is in it lol
This is because of the camera being too close to the hammer of the gun, buddy 🙂 A common thing to hear that ping sound on a PCP.
I wish I had a great spot like this…Awesome shooting…. Tom LI NY
Cheers, Tom 🙂 I think in the US you can find even better spots.
Nice shoot...👍👍👍
Thanks, buddy 🤝
12:30 they see me rollin, they hatin... :D
😄 👍
So, e great shooting, I like the look of your reticle, what scope are you using?
Thank you kindly, Nigel 🙂 The scope is the Athlon Argos BTR 6-24x50 FFP. The full equipment list is pinned on top of the comments section.
Nice pigeon pie or meaty stew, great shooting 👍🇬🇧
Thank you, Dave 🙂 Some of the flying rats did go in the pan. Stay safe, friend, cheers 👍
NICE man nice, i am quit supersized with that head shots you are making in the wind what caliber is that .25?
but overall you are quit a marksman hehehe good video keep it up.
Thanks a lot, friend, most kind of you 🙂 Yes, my gun is .25 cal.
Doesn't shooting INSIDE THE GRAIN Sheds run the risk of spraying pigeon blood over the floor and grain?
True, but it's the only way to get them out of there. Otherwise what they spray over the grain on a regular basis is feces, Andrew.
@@AirRifleActivities yes when you put it like that I know which I would prefer out of the two.
Best made videos of this type on RUclips
Thank you for the great comment, James 🙂🤝
Best wishes channel onwer air rifle activities very nice movie thank you god bless you dont stop
Thanks a mil, buddy 👍 Nice comments like yours motivate me so much 🙂
show the pigeons after shoot them is very satisfactory
Okay, buddy, I do on some videos and I'll keep showing the catch again 🙂 Thanks.
Another excellent video showing class shots. Don't you use a telescopic shooting stick to help steady the rifle? But after witnessing your shots you're doing fine without one. I've lost my Telescope lens covers for my IR Hawk I would be very grateful of any advice that you could give!
Thank you yet again, Andrew 🙂 And no, I didn't use any sticks in that video.
What kind of an advice are you asking for, buddy? What is it you need?
@@AirRifleActivities My apologies it looks like half my message was sent! I've lost the cap's to my scopes... They are the HAWKE SPORT HD 3-9X40 AO MILDOT IR. The caps that came with it was only held by elastic so it was only a matter of time that I would lose them! I have searched the Internet for advice but getting conflicting report's /reviews about each one! I would be really grateful of any advice that you could give! Because after days of researching I'm now bewildered lol. Sorry again for the part message.
@@PENFOLD1962 it's ok, buddy, now I understand what you need. I suggest you look up scope caps Butler Creek. The come in different sizes. You can measure the diameter of your scope's objective and eye piece and order a pair. You can do the same in the AliExpress, scope caps are cheaper there, be advised that the quality is lower too.
@@AirRifleActivities Thank you I appreciate your help, I'll go and have a look. I was looking at Butler Creek, some were saying that they were great and others saying that the hinge pins come out and flip open easy! The Reviewers preferred them! See how I mean with the mixed opinions!

Well done . . . enjoyed those head shots.
Thanks, brother 👍 More of those on my channel - check them out if you're in the mood for watching some more sky rat head busting 😉 Stay safe.

Indeed so, Rich 🙂 Thank you for watching, bud 🤝
Bro how much does it cost gun?
Hey, bud. You can find the gun at edgun.shop. that's where I got mine. Cheers.
15:22 bro, don’t care about it. You did your job great and thats the point. Im rl impresset
Thanks, brother 👍 Really means a lot coming from a fellow-shooter!
Look carefully at 21:01 and you can actually see the pellet en route to the bird!
Yes, bud 🙂 There and in other parts of the video too. Thank you for watching 👍
Yep the permanent medication was received.
Great shooting You ROCK
Many thanks, Deborah 🙂 Not sure if I rock, but if I do, it's because of you watching my content and taking the time to post a comment. So you rock too 🤘
Thats nuts how short that air rifle is!😮
Yes, Joe, the Lelya is only 596 mm long ☺️
Awesome
Thanks, Steve 🤝
Nice editing and intense shooting - great to watch , I was just waiting for a 2 in 1 !!! :D keep on good work my friend!!
Thank you, Tony 🙂 It's great to know you enjoyed the video, mate 🤝

Another excellent job done you guys keep the videos coming there brilliant Vince number one UK fan take care and stay safe 🇬🇧🇬🇧🐀🐀🐀
Thank you kindly, Vince 🙂 I'm glad you find it entertaining. More videos coming soon 🙂
Nice shooting mate! Very nice! 👍👍
Thanks, mate, I appreciate it 🙂👍
Nice shooting 👍 Are you using full scope mag in most of the shots.
Hi, Andrew, and thanks, brother 🤝 No, the max mag on my Athlon Argos is x24 and I usually shoot at no higher than x18 or x20. On some long shots I zoom out to about x12 or x14 to see more reference points on my reticle for holdover (my scopes are first focal plane).
@@AirRifleActivities Okey dokey 👍 I use a Hawke Frontier ffp & leave it on 15x mag for all my shots, have considered getting a higher mag scope for a better shot placement but i don't shoot beyond 55 yards, so i don't know if its worth me getting a higher mag scope.
@@AirRifleActivities My shooting style is aim, focus, pull the trigger, the less i need to do i think is better if i had to alter the mag zoom on top before the pigeon etc moves or flys off.
No, Andrew, x15 mag is enough for shots well over 55 yards. There's nothing wrong with your style of shooting - after all this is a hobby, we do it for fun too. Obviously we help farmers too. I know what you mean by saying you don't want to risk the bird taking off - making those vids takes some preparation before each shot and sometimes the pigeons do fly off before I manage to pull the trigger... The inevitable drawback of making videos 😉
@@AirRifleActivities Yes very true 👍 With Crows/Magpies i find that they don't stay long before moving or flying away unlike Pigeons, so i think the less i need to do is better before pulling the trigger, sometimes i don't get the chance to even focus,can be frustrating.
Like what Richard typed below.
I think you will never run out of targets a that location.
thank you.
Hi, Henry. You and Richard are absolutely spot on - it's good to go there at least once every couple of weeks, as the feral pigeons reproduce all year long around here. Thanks for watching and taking the time to post a comment 👍
I always thought you needed a long barrel for accuracy like that. Guess not.
Not only, buddy. There's a number of other factors too - selecting the right projectiles for your gun, the right velocity, hammer soring and regulator adjustment too.
Nice shooting.
Cheers, Joe 🙂
Как всегда чёткое видео 🤝👍👍👍👍👍!!!
Спосибо большое, друг 🙂🤝
Very good 👌
Thank you again, I'm glad you enjoy the content 🙂
Nice!!
Thank you, Umberto 👍
Always aim for a double kill. I'm sure the cats wouldn't mind the double kill.
Of course they wouldn't 😉
Good shots. No problem with you calling out the angles in mu opinion.
Thank you so much, Paul 👍 I just have to stop repeating the same phrase and use some other words for the same measurement 😉 Thanks for the positive feedback, friend!
Wow, that flying rat at 5:15 sure knows how to break dance! And then, "Boom! he crashes from exhaustion. What a performance!
Yes, nerves shutting down, Todd. That's why headshots usually make for a spectacular sight that scares anyone who doesn't have a clue of what exactly is going on. And also that's why I don't take headshots at new permissions - workers tend to assume I'm torturing the flying rats.
@vfxardist, okay, but people call them that because of the results of their behaviour, namely the mess they make at their feeding and nesting grounds. Not because they resemble real rats in their anatomy. Think of this as a nickname those birds were given by people who have to endure and take care of their filth first hand.
@@AirRifleActivities Thats too bad, they just don't know the rat is dancing dead. I guess it could be unnerving, I guess! Great shooting btw.
Nice vidio

Good shooting my friend. Love those long distant shots. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching, Richard 🙂 And the nice comment.
Air Rifle Activities yes sir anytime. I enjoy it. Also, most people don’t realize this fact, but pigeons multiply so fast. They contaminated grain stores which in turn makes livestock sick.
@@rikenbakerguitar4673, a hundred percent correct 💯
Nice shooting. At what speed are you shooting these 25gr jsb and whats your reg pressure and shot count? Tx
Hey, friend, and thank you for watching and the kind words 👍 My reg is set at about 135 bar right now, and the muzzle velocity with the 25-grainers is on average 262 m/s or 860 fps. The Lelya has a relatively small air tank, so the shot count from 240 bar till it falls off the reg is 30.
Air Rifle Activities i have installed a polygonal unchoked barrel in mine and huma power reg at 140bar i get 25 shots at 900fps with a much superior accuracy than the original barrel
@@yvessehnaoui3532, you are the second shooter that tells me of that setup. The polygonal barrel is a LW, right? And let me guess - you are French?
Yves, Mikael is my friend and he speaks very highly of you, he says you're an expert in Edguns. It's an honor to make your acquaintance, I'd love to keep in touch via Instagram or email. Cheers, friend.

Ok thanks, im in philippines so i cant afford to buy like your airgun
@@agustinballesteros726, sorry to hear about that, bud...
Late comment but that is some great shooting, the Lelya makes it easier than it should be though. 😊 I regularly hit spruce cones at 73 meters with no bipod but just suporting my elbows on something. Lelya 2.0 is such an amazing Gun! 🥰 If I manage to sell some of my stuff that I do not longer use I might have to get me a Matador R5M and the long one as well to have a "complete set" 😄
😄😄 That's gonna make for a lot of the same, Hasse 😉 But I know guys who do that, so... 😉 Thanks for the feedback, buddy 👍
Shot heart is better than head!!!!
To each their own. Usually people say the opposite, but in this case I agree. It's better to take heart and lung shots at sky rats.
Need to do a better job on the slo-mo, so we can see the pellet.
Will do my best given the equipment I have at my disposal 👍 I have upgraded my scope cam since then by the way, and I use a GoPro now.
@@AirRifleActivities I watch of lot of this guy: ruclips.net/video/QQq2Tyqlr8k/видео.html not sure what he has compared to you, but he does have very good slo mo. Anyway keep up the good work.
