Air Rifle Hunting, Rabbit Hunt 17, 31 May 2011

[unrealtech11]

ur lucky every time i go hunting i cant find any and im dead silent

[HuntersVermin]

@unrealtech11 There may be no rabbits in that area, look for rabbit dung and rabbit holes in the hedge row to make sure you have rabbits there.

[thegunman1212]

i love ur videos what website or shop do u get your guns

[HuntersVermin]

@thegunman1212 Here in Northern Ireland we can't buy air rifles through the web as we need a licence for them so we have to go to a fire arms dealer to buy them or order them in.

[pezsk8]

what are sum good air rifles and where can you get them??

[HuntersVermin]

@pezsk8 There are lots of good air rifles out there from the likes of Airarms, Daystate, Theoben, Weihrauch, BSA etc just depends what you have to spend and the type of power source you want to use. But have a look through some of the airgun magazines like Airgun Shooter to see what there is and who's selling it.

[BeastyHunter2000]

damn, your a good shot! Nice job

[HuntersVermin]

@BeastyHunter2000 Thank you.

[howie180765]

probably the best footage and shooting I have seen. excellent work and cheers for posting. you should be making dvd's buddy.

[HuntersVermin]

@howie180765 Thank you very much, and if you look at AirgunTV you'l find an add for a DVD i have just launched with them.

[cpduckett]

Wat size pellets u use

[HuntersVermin]

@cpduckett For the rabbits i use a .22cal 21grain Bisley magnum pellet.

[Russellhart1398]

will it kill them quickly if you shoot em in the body area (i mean below rib cage)

[HuntersVermin]

@Russellhart1398 It depends on weather or not you manage to distroy the heart because if you only nick the heart or just hit the lungs a rabbit might run some distance before dropping dead.

[oakland002]

Do you also have a tri-pod for the camera ?

I want to travel light, but it'll be hard to film without a stand for the camera.

[HuntersVermin]

@oakland002 Yes a carry a small tripod with me as well.

[mortalcare]

man what pellets are you using?? you can hear 'em crushing them little bunny skulls....must be a heavy pellet?

[PerfectInfectedLife]

what do you do with the rabbits after u own em?

[HuntersVermin]

@PerfectInfectedLife I take them home and eat some of them myself use some for crow bait and feed my cats with the rest.

[PerfectInfectedLife]

@HuntersVermin good thanks for the reply on both comments love the vids btw

[tomtroy52]

did you ever hunt with break barrels if so what kind did you use

[HuntersVermin]

@tomtroy52 I used to hunt years ago with a Weihrauch HW80 .22cal.

[tomtroy52]

@HuntersVermin thank you big fan i recently got a place i could hunt i use a beeman 22 cal with besly mangnums deadly out to fifty yards thanks buddy

[tomtroy52]

@HuntersVermin thank you

[irishhunterdude]

only 2 years till i have my own air rifel :D

[NAIRNHERO92]

Hunters vermin

What pellets do you use??

[HuntersVermin]

@NAIRNHERO92 I'm using Bisley Magnum pellets.

[juke2k7]

Hi huntersvermin.

Im a subscriber and a fan ... Just been wondering what your shooting sticks are made of or where you got them from

cheers bud

[HuntersVermin]

@juke2k7 They're made from two garden stakes from B&Q and a rubber band from an iner tube. You can see a vid on how to make them on my channel under how to make short shooting sticks.

[juke2k7]

@HuntersVermin

cheers fella, ive also made a set of shooting sticks with tent poles and string covered with insulation tape.

both work wonders

cheers

[spinosmen]

Where is this??? I mean the place

[broodzak721]

where is this . and is it legal

[HuntersVermin]

@broodzak721 Yes it is legal to hunt rabbits in the UK and Northern Ireland where i live so long as you have the land owners permission.

[xXPR3D4TOR136Xx]

i would like a good PCP to start out with, what would you reccomend, i have 2 springers already so thought PCP would be the way to go next?

[HuntersVermin]

@xXPR3D4TOR136Xx Ah something like an Airarms s410 or Webley Raider 10 would be good without getting into too much money.

[slickone67]

Nice vid. I love good hunting videos.

[HuntersVermin]

@slickone67 Thank you.

[Coolpop96]

Nice Video, Keep on hunting.

[HuntersVermin]

@Coolpop96 Thanks.

[nmjmnm]

I can't stop watching these videos! they are too good! Check out some of my videos.

[mysalival100]

you must get an awfull lot of questions asked. and i hate to be a bother but i have one of my own. i have recently come into contact with a few farmers around the delemere forest area in cheshire and have permission on their land. there are allot of rabbits and various birds (woodies etc) i am currently using a weirhauch hw95, but i would like a precharged rifle for hunting what would you suggest? i have a budget of around £400. thanks Tom

[HuntersVermin]

@mysalival100 You could look at the Airarms s400 or the Webley Raider 2.

[geandrey100]

Nice shot. Congratulations on the killing!

[HuntersVermin]

@geandrey100 Thank you.

[FireFun63]

im addicted to watching these, i dont know why ;)

[miketheknife2]

Great vid once again

[HuntersVermin]

@miketheknife2 Thanks.

[mrdgc543543]

hello sir umm.... what gun would you reccomend when i have the price range of about 300$. LIke a good quality gun that is quiet but still has that knock down power??? thank you for your time

[HuntersVermin]

@mrdgc543543 Crosman were doing a deal on their Trail NP that came with a scope mounts and a sling that would make a great starter hunting rifle for around that money. It is available in the UK for about £300.

[SuperHunter1235]

nice shots



[HuntersVermin]

@SuperHunter1235 Thanks.

[HuntersVermin]

@PLINKINATOR Thanks.

[talibanfun01]

were are u hunting ?? :)



[HuntersVermin]

@talibanfun01 I live and hunt in Northern Ireland.

[mrdgc543543]

i have a question. i have been into air rifle hunting for about 6 months and i want to upgrade to a new rifle now ive been looking at the gamo whisper deluxe air rifle now my question is do you think it has enough power to take down birds, squirrels, rabbits, and groundhogs? thank you for your time

[HuntersVermin]

@mrdgc543543 The Gamo website says it has 1000fps with lead pellets which is more than enough power for small game like rabbits etc.

[Psycho12345123]

@mrdgc543543 Hey! i saw your questiion and decided to give my input... look for a .22 caliber pellet gun shooting at 1000fps in reality it wont shoot 1000 fps but about 850- 930 fps Benjamin Trail NP Hardwood .22 Cal 295.00$ canadian. pretty good gun, check it out. but check out some other guns like that...

[FuZZioNzZGaming]

Hey guys.. i need your opinion. If you've just filled up your Pre-charged with compressed air, how many shots do you reckon it will last before it losses it's power to kill?

[thomaselgarsmith]

@FuZZioNzZGaming It depends on the size of your air tank, the pressure you filled it to and the power of your rifle.

Mines got a 200cc tank, filled to 200 bar, in.22 cal, at 12ftlbs and i get about 200 shots from that.

[HuntersVermin]

@FuZZioNzZGaming Have a look at the guns instructions or the guns manufacturer on the web as they should give the recommed number of shots for the gun and the fill pressure.

[Darrenholmes]

Another great video, cheers, when you stalk a rabbit and it see's you and crouches down in the grass, will a squeek sound likely to make it stand up for a shot, or does the rabbit have to unaware for it to perch up?

[HuntersVermin]

@Darrenholmes Yes a squeek usually will bring their head up but you will always get the one that will ether lie down flatter to the ground or just make a run for it to the hedge.

[Fishkid88]

Are there any British Colombia hunters here if so do you know of any game birds or small game accessible from the lower mainland

[pratze86]

as always! Very nice video! check out my chanel for the greatest hunting game simulation on the web.

[MrTam63]

Another great wee video .

[HuntersVermin]

@MrTam63 Thanks.

[JNKONE1]

Always great videos a went shooting this morning only got 2 rabbits still good fun tho

[HuntersVermin]

@JNKONE1 Thanks.

[PinkyPurply]

Great videos! I've always wondered, do you take the shot then reenact it straight afterword for the video?

Again great videos mate.

[HuntersVermin]

@PinkyPurply Yes something like that.

[RDPproject]

Wow that Badger trail is quite obvious....

It was looking quite cool there that day.

Any chance of doing a video of what clothing you wear and brands you use?

Rob

[HuntersVermin]

@RDPproject I usually go for army surplus stuff these days but the trousers i had on where from White Water i think.

[RDPproject]

@HuntersVermin

White Water....thx mate.

Going to look'em up now

[0Forgive]

Nice clean kills, good shooting.

[HuntersVermin]

@0Forgive Thanks.

[Atuck83]

Top Hunting/Filming/Directing! lol You never fail to enthuse me, an already avid hunter!! Good job buddy, look foward to your next vid!

[HuntersVermin]

@Atuck83 Thank you very much.

[rtodd84]

Love your videos a lot! Always awesome clean kills, great narration and perfect camera angles. Big fan keep it up!

[HuntersVermin]

@rtodd84 Thank you.

[sandrobaracchi]

alwais nice and clean kills! I keep seeing vids of people shooting from any distance to anything that moves and often needing a second shot to finish, and that just pisses me off.

Keep posting your great vids and teach everyone how hunting should be done.

[HuntersVermin]

@sandrobaracchi Thank you though i have had to use a second shot myself a few times, but i'm greatful i was able finish the job with the second shot.

[vantage1200]

Great video.

[HuntersVermin]

@vantage1200 Thanks.

[TheRabbitsniper]

Quality vid again bud keep them coming

I've made the shooting sticks you did and saved myself a bit of money

Again cheers

[motormadmarc]

@TheRabbitsniper . I made those sticks as well , nice piece of kit , and cheap to make as well

[HuntersVermin]

@motormadmarc Thanks glad you liked them.

[motormadmarc]

Hi Huntersvermin

As i'm a newbie to your videos , i was just wondering what Air Rifle you use is it a .22 or a .177. Also , is your Rifle 12ft11b or FAC rated ?

Regards ,

John.

[HuntersVermin]

@motormadmarc Its a Theoben MFR in .22cal with 30ft/lb of energy.

[moonbear]

another great video man, you have a great voice for the commentry keep up the good work :)

[HuntersVermin]

@moonbear Thanks.

[CynicVids]

Superb as always HV!

I find it best to leave them for about 15 minutes before emptying the bladder, it gives the muscles time to relax fully, and you can get every last drop out.

[HuntersVermin]

@CynicVids Yes thats a good idea.

[DrSkullTaker]

Nice. Thanks for another good vid ;)

[HuntersVermin]

@DrSkullTaker Your welcome.

[jinkjack]

You have quite a talent for making these vids. I'm always pleased to see one of your vids in my inbox. Thanks for sharing.

[HuntersVermin]

@jinkjack Thank you.

[Baldric990]

Nice video again. I noticed just as you made the shot on the second rabbit there was a third rabbit just in the top of the frame. Were you aware that one was there? I have done that before, taken a shot at a rabbit with the camera rolling and then later while viewing the video saw the other rabbit that was closer and larger. Who knows, I might be needing glasses.

I must admit your videos really motivate me to get out there again and start bowling them rabbits again.

[HuntersVermin]

@Baldric990 Thanks for the nice comment and now i didn't realise there was a second rabbit there until i looked at the footage after.

[TamrynRimfire]

Cracking Shooting, Great Video, Awesome Commentary.

Weldone top notch as usual 5/5 Thumb'd & Faved & On Face Book .

Tam

[HuntersVermin]

@TamrynRimfire Thank you Tam, glad you liked the vid.

[isofaster]

nice shooting , i wish there were some rabbits here , but the coyotes have pretty much wiped them out .

[cazadoresdiurnos]

what kind of rifle you use friend???????

[HuntersVermin]

@cazadoresdiurnos Its a .22cal 30ft/lb Theoben MFR pcp powered air rifle.

[Zanderhight]

Great vid.

[HuntersVermin]

@Zanderhight Thanks.

[TheGhost1066]

Another good video. Was out today trying to get a garden raiding groundhog with my springer. Settled for a rabbit instead. I need a PCP. ;-)

[HuntersVermin]

@TheGhost1066 Thanks.

[Rking100000]

This was always a question that i had. When you show footage of you stalking how do you get it? Do you walk out put the camera down and then walk back? Anyways, great video as always!

[HuntersVermin]

@Rking100000 Basically yes.

[kf4mwx]

Great as usual!

[HuntersVermin]

@kf4mwx Thanks.

[waddac2]

Great Shooting Again :o)

[HuntersVermin]

@waddac2 Thanks.

[bigjohntightlips]

enjoyed the video mate real good marksman and countryman, ATB john

[HuntersVermin]

@bigjohntightlips Thank you.

[jackhoopz]

where could i get that air rifle for a good price

[ThePhan7em]

@jackhoopz go to BSAOG.co.uk and if you post 30 posts on there you can then get access to their sale section. Great prices from people that wana sell their old rifles or new ones.

[HuntersVermin]

@jackhoopz The Theoben MFR i am using is made and sold by Theoben Ltd, you could shop around for a good price or look for a second hand one on the net.

[skillcapeemoteplz]

Why do you use a air rifle, and not a .22 LR? I guess you would be able to shoot better with a 22.

[xxxbigredxxx717]

@skillcapeemoteplz I think its because hes in ireland they have stricter gun laws

[FuriousPixel]

@skillcapeemoteplz

because they have stupid gun laws it my guess

[HuntersVermin]

@skillcapeemoteplz I could use a .22 rim fire but some of the farms i shoot over are very small some times only 4 to 5 fields to them which suits the air rifle better.

[JrSquirreler]

Great Video...As usual!

[HuntersVermin]

@JrSquirreler Thanks.

[Chugosh]

There's a peaceful quality about your vids that makes it seem as though I'd been on a good walk myself. Good medicine for the city man.

[nobull60]

@Chugosh Good medicine for any man!

[HuntersVermin]

@Chugosh Thank you very much, that was a nice comment.

[TheRich290185]

great vid as usual pal

[HuntersVermin]

@TheRich290185 Thanks.

[treeratbuster]

Nice one HV, another professional video there. That first one's bladder must have been ready to burst!

[HuntersVermin]

@treeratbuster Thanks, good thing i had it pointed away from myself or the rabbit would have had the last laugh.

[bloodshot16]

I go hunting every sunday with my brother now :) We're thinking of taking a camera so we can film it

[HuntersVermin]

@bloodshot16 Yes by all means take a camera and have a go filming your own hunts.

[sinnock4444]

i love your videos. the narrative and pace of them is pretty relaxing. i wish i could go rabbit hunting like you do

[HuntersVermin]

@sinnock4444 Thanks for the nice comment.

[Yumyumtuna]

Another terrific video. How about a video on how you skin, prepare and cook the rabbits (assuming you do so)? I think everyone would like to see that!

[treeratbuster]

@Yumyumtuna

Check his previous vids mate, he's beaten you to it.

[Yumyumtuna]

@treeratbuster Oh, right you are - thanks!

[pearsy2312]

@Yumyumtuna hi if you lookin his videos some were i believe there is one

[Yumyumtuna]

@pearsy2312 Yep, I was already directed to it by another guy. Thanks though!

[HuntersVermin]

@Yumyumtuna Thank you, looks like someone has already told you about the two part video on my channel on skinning and cooking.

[Yumyumtuna]

@HuntersVermin Yep, thanks though :)

[bazzleskizzle]

top draw again, nice to see you are putting some decnt thought into your videography and editing. I dont know if you have a friend that films for you but credit where its due, they are doing a great job.

[HuntersVermin]

@bazzleskizzle Thank you, i do all my own filming and editing.

[MrDie1968]
