RABBIT HUNTING with the 22LR & Subsonic Hollow Points 

EEEHHHHHHHHHHHHH........ what's up doc?.... 🥕🥕🥕🥕

😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆

That never gets old😅😅

Heh heh heh

Duck season, bang.

Thank you 🙏

Totally agree. I'd rather own a second hand Annie than I would a new BRNO. I've owned both rifles and the Anschutz was something special.

Also makes a change from using my air rifles all the time.

,,.👍

Glad to hear you’re enjoying the videos.

Honestly me too. Especially when it comes to hunting invasive and destructive species. Also nice Alastar pfp.

I’ve probably shot over 500 cases of Eley sub sonic ammo in small bore competition. I cant say I’ve ever had a ‘flyer’…… And a suppressed .22 with that ammo isn’t just slightly quieter, it’s literally silent, something you’ll never achieve with a 17.

Im in Australia and suppressors are not allowed. great to hear that you don’t get any flyers, what ammo do you use? was using cci which was the most consistent with the 22 but one in every 10 or so would be a flyer. nice clean barrel and the rifle is a 452 CZ.

@@garytrigg-graynoth4034 It's a shame suppressors aren't allowed in Oz. I think the public (and Authority) perception of them is basically from the movies, which portray them as something used only by criminals (patently false) and completely silent (which they are not, they suppress the sound but you can still hear it if you're nearby). This deprives legitimate shooters of a very useful tool. Even with a .22 LR which can make quite a distinctive crack, not only does it alert the rabbits but there are times you may need to shoot close to houses (eg the farmer that has asked for the help) and early in the morning and you don't want to be waking people up with the noise, dogs barking etc. And if you're shooting bigger rounds like .223 or .243 a suppressor is really a must unless you want to advertise your presence for miles around. Some Laws just don't make good sense and are overkill (pun pun)

@theo 100% agree, to many politicians watching james bond im affraid😂 issues here are the rules that apply for the hunting and country living folk are made by idiots in the city🤦‍♂️

Thank you Kevin

It sure is!

They're rather quiet but the sound of a 40gr hollow point echoes quite loud on impact. I never worry about refilling an air tank as I don't shoot enough rabbits to empty the cylinder. Both have their uses, just depends how I'm feeling that day on which one to use. Thanks.

@@lancsvermincontrol that is a fair point about never really shooting enough to empty a tank and to be honest the only time ive ever emptied the tank on my dreamline was a full day of decoying crows. might just have to get a 22 to try subsonics as having options is never a bad thing

It's always good to have a 22LR with subsonics. They're pretty good fun.

Gunpowder is just more fun imo. Less faff more shooting. If you’re a tinkerer then airguns are for you.

​@@pvegod1484i don't think they can own firearms that shoot gun powder.

Thank you Gaz

​@@lancsvermincontrol You getting paid for this, or not ??? (can't be bothered watching the typical British trigger happy , itchy finger type, repetitive stuff )

Your opinion is also the truth 😂 thank you very much Fernandez 👍

Which would be illegal in the UK.

@@skipmole612, and most of the U.S., if not all states. No rimfire rounds on deer.

Thanks, will do!

..,👍

Thanks for watching Tim 👍

Glad you enjoyed the 22LR. Wish I could use it more often on the channel but don’t really have many rabbit shooting permissions were 22LR is safe to use.

@@lancsvermincontrol pity there's another shooter on utube that does a lot with a 22LR but he appears to be shooting in a valley with a good backstop.

Zero was 40 yards and distances were between 30 and 60 yards.

60 to 80 yards is just perfect for comfortable rabbiting. When I was airgun hunting I just couldn’t get close enough without crawling on my face for 25 yards 😭 now I can setup with the tripod and comfortably pop anything that jumps out along a whole tree / hedge line. 22lr is the perfect calibre with how quiet it is with subsonics

Well done

Glad you enjoyed it

Yes pretty much. You will see it flashing during night time.

Always a pleasure Casper 👍

👍,..

It is a LE032 range finder and it has a screen display. You can see it blink at night time.

Bogg death grip

Thank you very much 👍

Certainly is a full freezer 😄

I like both. 22LR is good when there are only a few rabbits but 17hmr is good when there is quite a lot as they don't all run away after the "crack".

Hello, glad you enjoyed the video. The scope is a Hik Alpex which can record the footage. The rabbits are safe to eat and this is an air rifle, no gun powder.

This site is for hard-core sadists...rabbits are not vermin. Disgusting. and what country is this in?

Always a pleasure David 👍

...👍

LE032 laser range finder

On this particular land near me there doesn't seem to be mixy just yet, but shooting up Bolton/Wigan way they have mixy there unfortunately.

Thanks, it is the Primos trigger stick.

Yes semi auto 22LRs are allowed here.

I wondered the same, I use sub 12ft lb air rifle and they just keel over, I am pretty good at hitting the ganglia which prevents the twitching and jumping about.

Thank you, it was an enjoyable evening reducing the numbers.

Thanks again!

Thanks for watching!

LE032. Thank you 😊

Utah is a great state! 👍

Read the description.

Thank you very much. My girlfriend has told me about Spanish laws before because they are quite strict. (My girlfriend is Spanish).

@@lancsvermincontrol Saludos para tu novia Española .y me alegra Que este en América Yo os mando un saludo Desde C.Real España 🇪🇦

Thanks, and I get plenty of matrix rats also on my other videos. Seems to be a common theme 🤷‍♂️😂

Thank you as always mate 👍

Headshots all the way. I use a dog to retrieve them so they can bounce where ever they want. They can't hide from a psycho Weiner dog. 😂😂

@@FarmerFpv haha.. Point taken :) I have to pick up my own bunnies and having them bounce into a thorny bush costs me my bunny fee. Weapons Grade Respect..

CCI is not the best as the bullet is too hard and the hollow point too small. Winchester Super X is very accurate and bangs rabbits down out to 70 yards or more. Headshots all the way.

@@skipmole612 Thanks for that. My 50yard grouping using CCI subs is larger than I would like, especially as my 10.22 with target ammo produces a single hole at the same distance. I shall see if I can get any Winchester Super X in the UK. I will ask my guy who takes the bunnies I shoot to feed his ferrets if he has recovered any bullets to see if they expand at all. In ballistic gel, they seems to do the business. Always keen to learn.. Weapons Grade Respect from the UK...

@@ClaymateDesigner Pleasure. I'm in the UK. You shouldn't have a problem getting Super X. Mini Mag is not bad but it doesn't knock them down like Super X.

It needed a service that’s why 😂

@@lancsvermincontrol if that's really the excuse, you need to learn to maintain your rifle.

@@Grimasaurus Not an excuse, it's an old battered thing that needs a good service or pretty much replacing with a new rifle. It was bought 2nd hand from an old fella who had used and abused. I just wanted to use it before it finally gets taken somewhere to be destroyed.

Yes they get eaten
