Matt, your insight and attention to detail are what make your videos just tremendous. Please keep these 101 videos coming, no other channel has made anything even close to the level of quality and engagement that you so consistently provide. Keep it up, and thanks for not selling out, you are the reason people are watching.
I just got my first pcp rifle a month ago and started watching your videos last week and really liked them. Just suscribed. This AB101 will be awesome! :D
This is good timing as I have been absent from airgunning for many year. I'm glad I stumbled upon your channel- subscribed immediately. You make high quality and very informative videos. By the way, the South African landscape is stunning. Looking forward to the series. Regards from the States.
Matt, from a new fan, this is truly one of the best channels on air-gun pest control. Love the shots, the narrative, and your explanations. Your overall approach to the topic here, ballistics of airguns and their projectiles, struck me as properly organized and efficiently presented. I teach Science for a living, so I can recognize a well-researched and organized 'lesson', or even a whole curriculum, when I see one. I'm going to DL all the vids of this topic-series for my own education. I'm new to air-gunning (on a serious level, disregarding the BB pistol I had as a kid, and also the .22 rifle training I received through the Boy Scouts (back when they were a serious organization). I have a new Snow Wolf specifically for pest (pigeons) control, which have recently inundated my house. Learning about shot placement, and the behavior of the various types of air-rifles and the different projectiles, is important to me. Just keep doing what you're dong, and I'm sure you'll gain more and more fans/subscribers. BTW, Your somewhat dead-pan comment about the pigeons humping the dead bird on that wall cracked me up. Great job! Keep it up!
Looking forward to it! The external ballistics remembered me your review and tune of the HW100 .177 cal and the best video I've ever seen of a pellet tumbling in flight! That was crazy! Congratulations from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil!
I’ve gone over this at least three times. In my opinion more can be learned by viewing any number of other u tube contributors. Bottom line shoot as much as possible and use experience as a guide.
Looking forward to the series. Always used center/rimfire but...... Having fun enjoying the quiet nature of quality air rifles. Your doing a great job. Keep up the good work!
YES! "The library we call TH-cam" is exactly how I feel about this platform. I am eagerly awaiting this series as I cannot wait to learn more. Plus we are a big time Matt Dubber fan, so all the better to learn from you! :)
A+++++++++++++++++ series. I learned so much. the conclusion I've come to from this playlist is you might as well get either the cheapest air rifle or one of the best PCP air rifles. because you can get really good PCP air rifles for in the $300-$400 range as opposed to spending $100 or $200 for a high-end spring or pump-action or you could spend $50 or less for typical pump or spring action. so it seems like maybe spend roughly $10-$100 on a cheap one or be willing to spend 300+ on the ultimate setup, because it seems like the impression I'm getting is that if you're going to be spending close to the amount or the same as a PCP air rifle but it's not a PCP air rifle then you're probably wasting money. I know that's where did repetitive and poorly. Basically if you're going to be spending $300 or more with the intention of improving accuracy and FPS then if PCP air rifle is really what you're trying to get. If you're not trying to get the most accurate long-range air rifle then it's more logical just to get a really cheap non PCP air rifle. Also you could start with a really cheap non PCP air rifle and save money so that if in the future you decide to go with a PCP air rifle then you won't have invested over $100 which could be half the cost of the more accurate long-range PCP air rifle. for me if I spent $150 to $250 on a non PCP air rifle, it would be very difficult for me to justify spending $350 on a PCP air rifle later. I was really lost and confused about what to get in this video series has given me the exact conclusion that I was looking for.
Thanks Matt. I was hoping you would do this. I've been pest hunting for a few months now and I know that I need serious upgrades for long range shots. ready for class!
hey matt i love your hunting and pest control videos but these informative videos are so damn interesting so keep up the good work my brother and I can't wait to see whats next from and your team!!
I will be following this. Just a constructive note here, the name for the waisted pellet shape is a DIABOLO.(look on your tin of JSB's)Not DIABLO. Google it, there is a difference.Long time airgunner here, and former US Army Armorer. . .(MOS 45Bravo)
Matt - I'm really looking forward to this series. Thanks for all of the hard work. I hope you will be getting into pellets (sorting, etc.) because I suspect that with a rifle like the FX Impact, pellets will be the limiting factor as far as accuracy and distance.
+Jere Moore I've found that the Smooth Twist barrels aren't pellet fussy at all. They seem to be able to handle a variety of head diameters. I think the biggest limiting factor is the shooter himself!
I was wondering if you are also covering marksmanship principle of shooting position from breath control follow through position etc in your 101 balistics
Not sure if you covered it before, I'm looking for a compact, robust hunting and pest control air gun. What would you recommend? Maybe do a vid on the "best 10" options out there?
Besides the "Ted" it seams to me you are very detailed and educated/ing about your airgunning looking forward to learning more. Still some hunting vids with the great South African backdrop interspersed I hope?
Nice looking forward to it. I hope you touch up on smooth twist vs rifled (cz barrel or lothar) I always hear people saying that Fx barrel are sub par compared to rifled barrel. Some people claim that it's only accurate out to 100-120 yards but beyond that they loose stability. One other thing is that how can a cz barrel shoot a pellets up to 1000-1070 fps+ without instability in .25 caliber. Thanks
+sactown airgunner I'll definitely look at rifled barrels vs smooth twist. Interesting you say that, because I've found that its the other way round - Pellets out of rifled barrels seem to lose stability at longer ranges while pellets out of smooth twist barrels seem to perform better at 50m+
I wonder if you ever use a compensation mount to get more out of your scope? I've started using these and it makes it possible to zero the gun very close and yet retain enough minutes or mils to still use the reticle at extreme distance. 200 yards or so in some cases
Please please please when you list the gun/ammo/accessories please list the SCOPE on the gun, so many do not, inc. shooting magazines. +1 great video great series.
Hope there is basic info on preparing pellets. Washing, lubing and sorting by weight. Apart from finding out that all pellet batches are different as the manufacture is very inconsistant. Skirt diameters vary so much that you never know what is best on the day may be bad the next.
The question i ask my self is it not better to go and buy a .22 caliber long rifle it will do exactly the same job if not better and the rifel will be way cheaper so what is the point of a very expensive air rifle would love you to comment on that
Matt, I always look forward to your videos and this series looks like it will be fantastic. Have you ever thought of creating a "premium" channel which you could earn more income from? Regards.
Starting an airgun training program at my gun club (I am the President). I would like to know how to get your permission to use some of your content in my powerpoint presentation to my club members?

At 2:59 what app are you using?? I have been looking for one that is worth a crap and haven't found anything yet.
I was wondering if you are also covering marksmanship principle of shooting position from breath control follow through position etc in your 101 balistics

sharing information and experience is wonderful idea matt, thanks for effort, i believe videos help a lot of shooters, go on... +1
You should do a video on the Benjamin Armada
nooit hes south african!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! subscribed and notified
Nice! I was thinking about doing a series like this for airsoft snipers but theres no way I could get the videos this organized.
I wonder if you ever use a compensation mount to get more out of your scope? I've started using these and it makes it possible to zero the gun very close and yet retain enough minutes or mils to still use the reticle at extreme distance. 200 yards or so in some cases
looking flrward to it matt
Where did you got the thing on you phone at 0:03???
Please please please when you list the gun/ammo/accessories please list the SCOPE on the gun, so many do not, inc. shooting magazines. +1 great video great series.
ZevenLV
hi plz subscribe may chanal
becos i m new her
any chance of a couple of shows were you use 'classic' break-barrel .177 rifled air rifles from the 1950s and 1960s... oh yes and no scopes
When will part two be available?
Hope there is basic info on preparing pellets.
Washing, lubing and sorting by weight.
Apart from finding out that all pellet batches are different as the manufacture is very inconsistant.
Skirt diameters vary so much that you never know what is best on the day may be bad the next.
+Myles Nicholas You've brought up a very good point of discussion. I will definitely be covering this!
Myles Nicholas
hi sir plz subscribe may chanal becos i m new her
Myles Nicholas .
Saw this intro: now it is 2018, and I'm wondering how to get to the next video. Tks.Glenn
Reminds me of TiborasaurusRex-videos. Don't shoot with airguns but still I found this video interesting. Good job!
My thoughts exactly
yeah
Are you going to be still showing hunting videos or is it just for beginners for the next few months. I like your hunting vids.
visita Puerto Rico para que cazen lagartos verdes o como le llamamos aqui gallinas de palo...buen video!!! se aprende mucho!!!
Nice! I love these kind of videos. Thank you for making the series. Like the sniper 101 series from Rex but for airguns.
What app do you use for the crosshair lineup
I thought I was on Cedric's "Toufazou" channel for a minute. The opening music is what he use as theme music. But great information .
The question i ask my self is it not better to go and buy a .22 caliber long rifle it will do exactly the same job if not better and the rifel will be way cheaper so what is the point of a very expensive air rifle would love you to comment on that
Starts at 1:00
Maybe you should reconsider using live animals for target practice.
Matt, I always look forward to your videos and this series looks like it will be fantastic. Have you ever thought of creating a "premium" channel which you could earn more income from? Regards.
Starting an airgun training program at my gun club (I am the President). I would like to know how to get your permission to use some of your content in my powerpoint presentation to my club members?
So when does the rest of the series come out?
Never mind I found the playlist!
Sam Groat plz subscribe may chala becos i m new her.
