- The time Andy is in one of Fife's many large rookeries, shooting rooks (young 'branchers') with his none too modern, trusty old spring-powered air rifle. Watch as he takes some incredible shots, allowing for quite a breeze.
that's all I used the hw80 177 and then the shot gun after got young ones and a lot of old ones to great days shooting a great video
Nice work there Andy. Good to see the BSA doing the business there.
Cant beat a good old BSA.
Excellent shooting with the trusty BSA!
Keep up the great work Sir..
You mentioned a rook rifle,..I have one,..it is a 25/27 cal. centerfire cartridge,single shot,.with triple leaf rear sights,...name on the rifle is W.R.Pape. Rifle is in really good condition,.and a very neat tidy style.
Have you any idea where I might find some ammunition for this in Canada ? The rifle was given to me by my Father, about 55 years ago. I sure wish I could shoot with this again.
Would love to see a few photos of that one Reg.
Pcp mate not ppc 😂
hi
please may i ask
what pellets do you use in your 177 lightning? i have an old original brummie lightning in 177 and it will put 3-4 accurate shots out and then flyers, the trigger isn't a lot to write home about but i love the compactness of the rifle. i did put a new breech seal in it, i crowned the breech a little, it kicks like a mule but it does have a square section spring giving 11.5 ftlbs over the chrony, its a gun i would love to use but at the moment its just to inconsistent .i have been using air arms 4.52 diablo in it and those are pellet on pellet in my tx200 .
No rook rifles in the 18th C--no cartridge rifles either. Rook rifles came in the late 19thC, but their use declined with the Firearms Act of 1920. Just saying. No criticism of an interesting video.
Great Informative film Andy Nice one
Glad you enjoyed it Stevie.
They may be part of nature but are real nasty ba*****s ......good shooting.
Enjoyed that one Andy !!!
Cheers, Vid.
Nice work!
Nice shooting, I see you have a bsa lightning xl
Nice shooting, I see you have a bsa lightning xl
Nice aim but I've seen better, just sayin
Great video, keep them coming, brilliant
Thanks, Bluedyson
Hi Andy, what are your thoughts on using a silenced .410 shotgun for branchers in similar conditions?
Yes a .410 would be a great wee gun for branches especially once they start to fly.
Ive got a bsa lightning gas ram
Where in fife were you? im from fife
great work Andy, im not too far from your self and im always looking for permissions - keep up the good work mate
Thanks, Doc. Keep watching!
good shots on the rooks
Hello. Nice vid and job you did !! Lovely gun ! Is it true that you have to have a firearms licence in Scotland to shoot air guns ? Greet´s from Norway. Thumb up !
Yes that's correct, even under 12ftlb airguns and 6ftlb pistols.
@@davidmartin1093 wow....that`s strange .And very strict!
Well 5 or 600 pellets were not required then, so how many pellets were required to shoot 30 rooks and could a pcp rather than a ppc have done the job without an easy to do refill ? Nice shooting by the way.
Thats one of 15 rookeries covered each day during the brancher season. A PCP is a pain in the butt if you shoot high volume.
Ah! High volume shooting - still a lower count rifle like my HW 100 KT will put at least "Fifty" dead rooks at my feet for each refill.A pcp is a great rifle for pest control and most pcp`s will offer "far more " shots per refill than my deadly accurate hw 100`s 50 or so.
It is no bother at all to refill my pcp on a high volume useage.
nice shooting andy, stiff breeze there.
Was a wee bit tricky shooting in that wind.
You'r some shot buddy .
Thanks :-)
oq é nice
they more GOOD than harm... by probing for soil pests.. what goes around comes around
control..? its people like you need controlled
