In this episode of Foxing with Mark Ripley on S&C TV, Mark is out again on the tricky, vast, basin-shaped permission that makes long-range shooting a necessity! There is a pig farm on the top of the hill overlooking the basin, and right next door to it is a small bit of woodland that holds a lot of the areas foxes. The farmers have been noticing missing piglets, and have asked Mark to try and solve the problem... it's not easy, but he's not hailed as the best foxer in Britain for nothing!
Armed with the InfiRay TH50 thermal scope, which has a super-clear picture allowing him to close in on long-range foxes, he's on a mission to protect those piglets!

The modelling was hilarious 😂😜👍

@terrier656 Год назад

As always.....another fantastic fox hunting video. I really appreciate, that there are some hunters with so much passion, spending a lot of hours in the night to protect small game an other animals. Well done, Mark!

@mattchilders3123 Год назад

Mark, you are a natural model LOL.... that was some funny looking stuff.

@stormboy1517 Год назад

@Juzzy520 Год назад

Oh mate!!!! Soon as you dropped the 2nd fox @280 yds i said to myself”Yeeees!”good lad!!💪😉👍👍

@SilasMoleCatcher Год назад

Christ, I thought I was watching a Right Said Fred video, you did a pretty decent job vogueing it in that Ridgeline gear!

Nice done mate

@kevinsmith7274 Год назад

Nice shooting Mark love your videos cheers mate

@emjarven6017 Год назад

Great shooting!

@misterlewgee8874 Год назад

Getting stable on edge of ute tray was an achievement... you just can't choose where the foxes pop up! The tip about the tail going up I appreciate.... sometimes with runners it's hard to tell if you've missed them...or not... The longer range shot you made without a rear bag ...but...you achieved stable... These days I'm well focussed on getting stable...with the hope of avoiding misses on the limited opportunity that is foxing. Thanks for reminding what cartridge you used during video too. The long range (200 plus yards?) NV and thermal foxing is of most interest .. Thanks for putting in the effort to share. 👍

@doomfathertm8771 Год назад

nice work as always

@henryb8740 Год назад

@MrBeboopman Год назад

@260rips Год назад

😆 just me being a Twat sorry 😆

@calibreman Год назад

Another excellent video Mark, thank you and well done. Geoff.

@denisrailey777 Год назад

Be careful Mark, we might lose you to the modelling agencies. Lol.

@MJSherwood 10 месяцев назад

thats the first digital scope i've seen that behaves like an FFP scope. I wish more worked like this.

@NubbyTV101 Год назад

Outstanding shooting as standard. Thanks for sharing. 👍

@mthat21 Год назад

Mark love your video's , have you thought about using a vehicle with a cherry picker on the back, which you could drive like a land rover chassis , 4 wheel drive , where you could park up climb in the basket elevate up, enough for a better view and an improved shooting angle , safer. The operation of these mini vehicles is silent , you can get a van variation , like the council lighting fans have , good luck

@stephenlewis195 Год назад

Great video mark I do like the long range stuff and a couple of foxes to boot , Keep them coming mate and thanks for sharing. 👍

@michaelkeane5254 Год назад

As always brilliant shooting Mark and excellent 👌 cat walk style

@dave_724 Год назад

Guessing your shooting down in wiltshire for this i’ve been round most of the outdoor pig units in salisbury it almost looks familiar

@richardofoz2167 11 месяцев назад

For those of us who are knowledgeable about shooting, it would be interesting if you said a little about what cartridges and loads you're shooting, and your equipment.

@keithhaynes8079 Год назад

Thank you Mark brilliant shooting again look forward to next video take care mate.

@garysides636 Год назад

Brilliant vlog. I know that millisecond where you see something "white" as you scan only to find it's a bloody badger! That reticle looks really good for those distance shot placement. Thermal is such a game changer especially if you have something thats run ... The hours I've spent doing "drills" up and down a field to find a fox where I was certain it was shot ....to go the next day and find it no where near ! Thermal just let's you scan and find in no time. Keep up the good work. Re "ridgeline" clothing ....you can't beat them for fit ...material choice and price although Deer Hunter are a close second in my opinion. Be safe 🙏🦉

@260rips Год назад

Indeed! Yes I’m also a fan of deerhunter as well 👍

@matthewnobby6789 Год назад

Head shot just where I was aiming 😛280 yards lol Well done tho

@jakeluff8067 Год назад

Kate Moss, eat your heart out baby. Nice as always.

@visiter127 Год назад

Well done Kate moss ha ha

@daniellarusso3392 Год назад

Its a shame you dont get much model work, your head looks so shiny.. I've just bought me and the youngen some 22s so look out rabbits

@jsshuntr1257 Год назад

Hey, Mark my other half and I both cracked up from the 2:30 mark. The wife did some modeling in her younger days, she says you need to practice the head turns and don't quit your day job! LOL x2.

@260rips Год назад

Ok thanks I’ll work on those 😆

@ExploretheMallee Год назад

Hi Mark, I've just bought the TH50 and love it so far. Do you know if the hash marks on the last reticles are actually MOA? Cheers!

@260rips Год назад

Oo good question, no I’m not sure but I will see if I can find out!

@longyx321 Год назад

Nice video, Mark but that scope don't impress me much.....think I'll stick with C50.. Probably OK for close range and rabbits,....for those fortunate enough to have stock. Must be fantastic for rats though...Great video as usual..

@260rips Год назад

This scope is thermal not nv 😉

@Nebula_Ultra 10 месяцев назад

As an American when i saw "pig protection " I was like wait wtf

@nickravenhill723 Год назад

Very good as usual. Can somebody tell me what happens to the foxes once shot?

@snova8033 Год назад

I Like the sense of humour Mark, but good clothing is essential as there is nothing worse the being cold and wet and in the UK with our weather boy do we know about that.

@oldschool9932 Год назад

Mark, please share the component make up for the 223rem round used. Thank you for the excellent content and for the sneak peek into your side, "modeling" gig. Don't give up the day job. Cheers.

@Seek.YouWillFind Год назад

I believe mark usually uses Hornady super performance 53g Vmax factory ammo

@260rips Год назад

It is indeed factory 53 grain Hornady superformance 👍

@jamesmead8550 Год назад

@@260rips what twist rate do you have in your 223 ?

@pmurp9x Год назад

On the second fox at 11.27, right after the shot something dashes away at the edge of the nearer field with the longer grass right in the shot line, but it doesn't show up white in the thermal what was it, did you see?

@gdjrman5247 Год назад

Hello Mark, I here your testing the new Merger shortly, could you let me know if you have any issues with heat signature (flickering) with rabbit/fox/etc out at 300/400/500 metres on base mag appreciate any feed back

@260rips Год назад

I’ve not had any issues with that as yet 👍

@articfox1066 Год назад

Have you abandoned your trusted 260 Rem. For the 6.5 creedmore?

@260rips Год назад

NOOOO!!! Never!! I’m just using the 223 here as it’s my night shooting set up 👍

@parkhurstaerialphotography8875 Год назад

Would be interested to know what rifle your .223 is and what moderator your running on it. Looks a tidy rifle

@260rips Год назад

It’s a customised tikka t3 and the mod is a Mae t12 scout 😉👍

@pikemaster1972 Год назад

Hi mark just got 223 . What’s the effective range compared to a 2225O? Cheers again

@260rips Год назад

To be honest the effective range for both rifles is more about what you can hit as both rifles carry a fair bit of knockdown if the bullet hits the right spot. Realistically both rifles are good out to 300 yards or more 👍

@chainsawdom1 Год назад

How do the fox get to the pigs with electric fencing around them.

@260rips Год назад

They can quite easily slip under the fences, I think they are designed more to keep the pigs in rather than the foxes out 🤦🏻‍♂️

@edwardsheridan9962 Год назад

Best thermal spotter would you recommend for deer stalking great video as always

@260rips Год назад

I’m a sucker for pulsar spotters, I would say Helion, accolade or merger would be the way to go depending on budget 👍

@tikkafoxer Год назад

Hello Mark. Again a top foxing video from you, i've been following you for a lot of years now and I am every time impressed with your shooting skils. I am also a foxer and see the number of hares rise since doin so. But I have a qustion for you, I always see you use youre phone as a torch, WHY ??? I always wear a headlamp and a small but powefull torch for searching, why don't you do so ? Love to hear from you and keep on making foxing video's and give us class about ballistics.

@260rips Год назад

😆 just one less thing to carry! I have as it happens started using an led headlamp now sometimes!

@LateNightFoxing Год назад

Great shooting Mark as always 👍 Quick question for you, What distance is your 223 sighted in for?

@tikkafoxer Год назад

I believe he mentioned 180 meters

@260rips Год назад

Yep 180 metres (around 200 yards) or the classic inch high at 100 yards 👍

@paddybrown4163 Год назад

Did you miss the first Fox lad the fox u shown was very stiff looking lol every one can miss even the pro's

@260rips Год назад

Indeed they can mate and yes I do! However not here! If you look closely you will notice the tail come up after the shot - a clear sign of a hit and by the way it threw itself in the hedge. It was stiff by the time I found it about an hour later after much searching and retracing my steps to pin point where it was - naturally an hour of me stooped over kicking about in long grass would not of made very entertaining footage! 👍

@theshootindutchman Год назад

How much do ranchers pay for each fix? Enough for a full time living?

@johnallen8618 Год назад

Brilliant shooting Mark, a look always great to watch you, doing your craft 😎

@edwardoutthere3189 Год назад

See your driving toyota hilux how do you find it

@260rips Год назад

Excellent, don’t think I will buy any other truck after having a hilux 👍

@greggdsciotto8952 Год назад

Good looks? Stand by one...lol.

@Plainsimple67 Год назад

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO YOUR AICS CHASSIS REMINGTON, YOU AREN'T SHOOTING THAT ANYMORE?

@TherymasterWidnes Год назад

Would a fox actually take a pig?

@markelliot1248 Год назад

Hi Mark, Living in the same area I know there is a long distance trail going right past that pig farm and to me it's the type of route that cyclists are going to use even at night using lights. Just wondering how you deal with that. Do you put up warning signs, just have to watch out for them or perhaps you don't really see anybody else about? Perhaps dealing with public rights of way is a subject that could be a video in its own right.

@260rips Год назад

Can’t say I see anyone about much at night and the thermal is certainly a great tool for safety as well as spotting quarry 😉👍
