Back to the Silos: Shooting Pest Birds
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ก.พ. 2021

- MY SETUP --
Rifle: Huben K1 .25 (2020 edition)
Scopes: Athlon Argos BTR 6-24x50 FFP

Projectile: JSB Exact King 25.39 grain + JSB Diabolo 18.13 grain
** Filming equipment **
Scope cam: GoPro Hero 7 Black + Firefly 8SE
Scope cam mount: Side Shot
Tripod: Joby GorillaPod 1K
9:25 was perhaps my all-time favourite shot! Love the brick behind her head. I reckon the exit wound at 90 degrees from entrance means you smashed a lot of bone and dumped a lot of the slug's energy into the bird. Perfect.
Thanks, brother. I really like your comment. You're quite right about the exit wound at 90°. It was a pellet, not a slug. A shooter has to be mindful of the surroundings nonetheless. Thanks again for watching 👍
Another good one Alex. Can't believe you passed up a perfectly good white pigeon trying for a double lol. I'm trying to get more footage to add for a new video but now it's raining for a week. Kris took out his new Raptor in .25 and got a double on cowbirds at 75 yards. They have about a 1" target so not bad with a new gun. Talk to you soon brother.
Thanks, buddy 🙂 Always a pleasure to hear from you. Whiteys got a safe passage on this one, but that won't last 😄 Hope to watch a new video of yours soon 👍
I used vector optics taurus model in the first focal plane. Very good scope !!!
I agree, mate, cheers 🙂
4:30 That cat running away - you'd think, by now, he'd equate the sound of air rifles with dinner raining down from the sky....
That's absolutely what they do, buddy 🙂 It takes no more than a couple of shots for the felines to come running 😄
The slow motion is awesome... And yes, the dove are delicious.
Cheers, friend 🙂 It's great you enjoyed it.
how you try to take out the carcass 3:20 and fail the whole time reminding me of Family Guy Peter Griffin try to do same...LOL comic
😄 Well, I can't say I've watched that show, but thanks, buddy 🙂
Man, the very last one, sweeeet head shot 👌
Glad you enjoyed, more videos coming soon - head shots in the next one too 😉
Great shooting video as always. Collared doves are a huge problem here in Arizona on our dairy farms. I agree they are very tasty. Stay safe and good shooting. 👍
Thanks, buddy 🙂 Just ten minutes ago I explained the same thing to another viewer of mine - collared doves look so cute and timid, up until the moment their numbers explode when left unchecked.
@@AirRifleActivities yes, this is why I share your videos as well as other pesting videos to friends and others to demonstrate visually how bad these infestations are and why we must keep them in check and to support our hunters. When I get time I always take my friends with me pesting so they can see the farms and how bad this problem is. Cheers my friend.👍🍻😎
Awesome footage - scope, shot, slow motion, impact! Thanks
I thank you for watching and the kind comment 🙂 Means a lot, cheers, buddy 👍
This last shoot was amazing.
Cheers, mate 🙂🤝
Nice work guys. Look forward to the next one soon.:-)
Thanks, Donald 🙂 Won't be long. See you on the next one.
3:10 ворону купает!)) какой добрый и хороший человек. 😂
🤣 Okay, that was a really amusing comment 🙂 Спосибо!
Она тонула в воде. Он спас её
@@1stMILDOT thanks, buddy. I just saw you have a channel of your own and you shoot Krügers. I've always been interested in this brand but it's so difficult to get one in the EU...
@@AirRifleActivities Да, крюгерка отличная винтовка за свои деньги. А если учесть её запас прочности и уверенное выполнение задач, то эта винтовка самая лучшая.
Сам пользуюсь такой, только более ранней моделью, и менять не собираюсь.
That last headshot set the bar.
Thanks, buddy, glad you enjoyed it 🤝
Tell me this guy don’t sound like “The Zec” in Jack Reacher??? Excellent shooting Zec! 😁🤓👍
😄 Really made me laugh, bud. Which part of Jack Reacher is that? Gotta see it 😉 Thanks.
@@AirRifleActivities th-cam.com/video/YkfEc-PYJ8A/w-d-xo.html
@@simaxj4073 I guess you tried to send me a video of that Zec guy. My buddy Daniel, already did 😉 Honestly, I can't believe I sound like that to some of the viewers 😄
That’s Werner Herzog
@@calartian85 yes, the actor, and I can't believe I sound like him 😄
last shot was awesome!
Glad you enjoyed it, bud, thanks 😊
My friend, that was another awesome video! Love the heart/lung crash and burn on that 3rd corvid.
Thanks, buddy, your feedback is much appreciated, same as always 🙂🤝
brilliant vids bro , im hooked on this stuff
Thanks, buddy, welcome to the channel 🙂
You always make me feel good my friend 👍
I'm happy I manage to make you feel better in these difficult times, brother 👍 Thank you.
Just subscribed, I watched a few of your videos and like what I see. Good camera work and good air rifle skills!
Thank you kindly, Mike 🙂 Welcome to the channel, it's good to have you watching 👍
nice shot on the crow, nice entertainment getting it out of water, good vid as usual.
Thank you, John, it was an interesting day out 🙂
Awesome video Alex that Huben airgun it sounds awesome 👌 and looks very accurate great job and the taipan is a badass airgun thanks for sharing bsafe buddy
Thanks so much, Chris 😊 The Huben is an awesome gun indeed. I admit so is the Taipan.
1:50 Flew and gasoline ran out))) 👏👏👏👍
Hah, yes, this one made a pretty spectacular splash down 😉 Thanks, bud.
We're going down!
Excellent shooting as always. Thanks for the video. Keeps me inspired that I will someday have my own channel.
Hey, friend 🙂 Thank you for your nice comment. Judging by your great IG posts, you'll be quite successful on this platform too 👍
@@AirRifleActivities thank you. You guys in are my motivation
Thanks for the vid Alex, it made my day a little bit better. Things have been quite difficult lately here in Texas.
I feel you, brother... Life has become quite difficult for all of us lately. I hope you're safe and healthy?
Same here I live in Atascosa , Texas , IH 35 south of San Antonio 👍
@@kingfishphill4120 Seems like every home in Texas has been damaged. Kingwood north of Houston.
@@AirRifleActivities Thank God we are ok but our home took quite a hit.
@@richardward9111 Yes Sir stay safe
Badass video Alex 🍻👋👍
Cheers, Manny! 😊
As usual you are unique.
I like the shoot in 1: 50
Thanks, brother 🙂 Feedback from fellow-shooters always means a lot!
Nice pest control shooting! Ни пуха ни пера!
Thanks, buddy 🙂 I didn't understand the phrase in Russian but I appreciate the comment 👍
@@AirRifleActivities It means, Wish you good luck on hunting :-)
Fantastic shooting skills zec👏👏👍
Thanks, brother 🙂🤝
Great video and great shooting. I'm very envious of you lol I would love to be out there doing that.
I admit I got lucky getting such a permission, bro 🙂 Thank you for the nice comment 🤝
Hi from Florida USA. Nice shooting session, nice place to take pigeons!
Thanks, buddy, it's nice to have you watching my videos 🤝
Great shooting man
Thank you, Doug, glad you enjoyed it 🙂
As always my friend great video first class shooting, really enjoyable stay safe Cheers
Thanks so much again, Casper 😊
very inspiring, greetings from Indonesia my brother
Thank you, greetings to you too, buddy 🙂
Real Nice Shooting my friend , awesome video and footage , Phillip , Texas 😎
Thank you, Phillip, I appreciate it, buddy, stay safe 🤝
I always like shooting pigeons and doves.
I hope you enjoyed my video too, James 🙂 Thanks.
Howdy from Sacramento! Nice shooting. I agree, those collared doves are tasty. Here in the states we call them Eurasian collared doves. They are an invasive species so there is no season and no bag limit. I shoot them w a shotgun on my buddy's farm. Cheers!
Hey, brother 🙂 Nice to have you watching the channel. I know the doves are a huge problem State-side, but here in Europe they're protected in some countries and snowflakes give me a lot of nonsense in the comments section. They refuse to believe that they become as uncontrollable as ferals if left unchecked.
Отличное видео!!!👍👍👍
Спасибо еще один раз, Алекс 🙂
9:21 : Um dos mais lindos headshots que já vi !!!!!!!! 😲 LIKE IRMÃO !!!!!
Muito obrigado, irmão, isso é um grande reconhecimento 🙂🤝
Great shooting brother!!!!
Thanks, buddy 🙂👍
👋🏾sup bruh. That is some good shooting brotha 👊🏾😎
Thanks, man, means a lot 🙂🤝
"back to the silos"....... that has an interesting ring to it. :) Did you guys get all that done at the silos?
I admit only a couple of the shots were taken at the silos per se 😉 But this is one big complex not only with silos, but some fodder warehouses (the tin roofs with pigeons on them), some trees and a small fish farm - the one in which the crow splashed. I also admit that I count on viewers watching the rest of my videos when I try to tell these short pest control stories of mine 😉 I should've taken into account new viewers watching. Sorry, mate 🙂
Take this video for instance, buddy - the first 30 seconds will give you a view and an idea of most of this location; I hope you enjoy the rest of the video too: th-cam.com/video/Cghw9DE1uaM/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for the nice video! Some of the birds were really pretty. I hope you shot them with really pretty pellets! ;) Nice shooting!
😄 You're welcome, Bill, thank you for watching! Pretty pellets? I don't know about that, but they sure were efficient 😉
Enjoyed the video as usual 👏🏻👏🏻 what are the velocities of both of the guns with the mentioned pellets?
Thanks, friend 🙂 The Taipan: JSB 1.175 g at 265 m/s. The Huben: JSB Exact Kings 1.645 g at 274 m/s. Those were the projectiles and velocities in this video.
Nice
Thanks, Marno 🙂
Nice video. What settings do you use? Regulator and Power Wheel? (How much FPS?)
Hey, brother. The reg is at 145 bar. I shoot the JSB 25.39 gr at 920 fps. These pellets seem to perform best at that velocity. Thank you.
What do you do with all the dead birds? And why did the headshotted pigeon at the end flop around so much?
We eat some of the pigeons. We leave some to the farm yard cats. And we give a lot to friends who like pigeon.
Every head shot is like this, man. It's a result of their nervous system shutting down. A lot of people who know nothing about birds and hunting think they agonize because of all the flapping and the graphic imagery. But these are amongst the most humane shots, because their brains are destroyed in an instant. But it's not good for hunting and pest control, because it scares the rest of the birds off.
I have several videos of head shots only - you're welcome to watch them if you like.
Thanks for watching 👍
Great shooting. Respect
Thank you, Stephen 🙂
Good shooting. What's the amount of video speed reduction for the slo mo's?
Thanks, brother. Usually I reduce the speed down to 10-15%.
@@AirRifleActivities Wow, I thought it would have been much more reduction than that, like maybe 3X or so. Cool effect either way.
@@joewoodchuck3824 no, no, I don't reduce the speed BY 10% 🙂 I reduce it DOWN to 10% of the normal speed. In other words: x10.
@@AirRifleActivities Ah. My misunderstanding I guess.
Great video bud. Is the foldable chair good ?
Much to my amazement, it is 😉 I prefer to be a bit more mobile, but my buddy uses it all the time. Thanks, bro.
Nice shooting! 😃👍🏻
Cheers, mate 🙂
Nice shooting, The hawk was a buzzard not a kestrel.
Thanks, buddy 🙂 I appreciate the clarification too. We saved a dehydrated kestrel last summer not far from that place, so I assumed it was one of those.
Nice shooting! Biggest respect for crows.
Thanks, buddy. I know, these birds are usually up to no good.
I envy you have so many moving targets. I rarely see a pigeon. Need to find some good spot outside of my yard.
Thanks, buddy. Try some place like a granary, silos, dairy farm, etc., where you can be of help to the owners. Ask for a permission.
Ура! Новоый видос!!! 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks, brother 🙂 I hope you enjoyed it 🤝
Best at the end 🎯
Glad you enjoyed it, mate 🙂
Excelentes videos, tremenda punteria 😮👌
Muchas gracias, hermano 🙂
Love it bro, so as your Air gun. Shout frm 🇵🇭💥👍🎈.welcome to Philippines bro!! your newfound brother👍👊
Thanks, buddy, welcome to the channel 🙂 I'm glad you enjoy it, please subscribe and share, and see you on the next one 😊 More vids coming soon.
Nice shooting!
Thank you, brother 🙂🤝
Nice! Looks like you have the K1 shooting to your satisfaction yes? I have heard mixed reviews on their precision but opinions are what they are....
Yes, Bret, the older gens used to have a lot of problems... The K1 2020 edition does not disappoint so far. I hope it stays like this 😉 More tests with other brands and types of ammo will keep follow.
Nice headshot bro
Thanks, buddy, I appreciate it 🙂
@@AirRifleActivities 😁👍
Wow nice shot frend 👍👍👍👍😃😃😃❤️🇵🇭
Thanks, buddy, I appreciate it 🙂
What I find Is once you’ve shot all of the birds the pest problem goes away
😉 My observations are the same, thanks, mate 👍
This Huben... a monster. I see the end headshot... Really the impact is on the wall? The projectile go out from the pigeon head and impact to the wall? :O reat shots but i never shoot a dove, in my country not a feral species :) And my wife like the doves :)
Doves can become as uncontrollable in their numbers as feral pigeons if left unchecked, buddy 🙂
Absolutely, the pellet went through all the way and hit the wall. And that's half of what this gun is capable of power-wise in .25 cal.
Thank you, brother 👍
1:50 😀👍👍👍
A very spectacular splash down, thanks, bud 🙂
Thank you for the video, sir. Keep killing those flying rats. I've chased away a few of them from my apartment balcony with a Pumpmaster 760. I wish I had your gun lol.
Thank you, Derek 🙂 I hope you get a nice pcp, bud. It'll make way easier "chasing away" all kinds of pests 😉
Very very good 💪💪💪💪
Thank you, Maxim 🙂🤝
This is what needs to be done about a flock of flying rats like this to Cliff Swallows.
Thanks for watching, bud 🙂 I know you don't like those swallows, you've commented before, but we don't have those where I live, so I wouldn't know 😉
Nice one
Thanks, brother 👍
Un video excelente y esos tiros muy buenos 👌. Cuidado con la escoba que por poco sales volando jaja 😅
Muchas gracias hermano 😄 Me alegro que hayas apreciado la broma de la escoba 😉
Nothing against the Huben, but you were really dialed in with your Edgun. Good video as always.
Thank you, friend 🙂 The Huben is a different type of gun and I wanted to try sth new and bring it to your attention. Please know that the first shots in the video were taken by my buddy with his Taipan and he really struggled with the wind that day. Other than that, the Huben doesn't disappoint so far. I keep testing, new stuff coming soon, I think you'll enjoy it, Prophet videos too.
Here using that full auto Russian air gun would be amazing
Yes, I've heard of it, and I've watched some videos too. Perhaps you're right 🙂 Thank you for watching.
Great shooting once again. Doves are good with bacon 🥓 wrapped around the breast and grilled
A friend told me so, Tom 🙂 I should relay the info to the wife 😄 Thanks, brother 👍
Muy muy muy buen video, gracias ‼️
Muchas gracias, hombre 🙂🤝
The curios Raptor was a common Buzzard
I thought it was a kestrel 🙂
@@AirRifleActivities In modern societies birds of prey can´t controll crow, pigeon, magpies, gulls and other species who benefit on human activities and grov in numbers. Birds of prey also suffers enormosly from the windturbines, that smashes them i thousands while they soars over Fields. Their number has drasticly dropped enormosly last 20 years, due to climatechange hoax behind wind mills building. So you present them a good meal now and then. Thanks for good shooting videos! By the way there are a lot of good recepies on pigeons. But the birds of prey will get some from you, they take dead pigeons on the roofs.
@@goransteen5411 you're right, Göran, and I actually count on them to take care of the sky rats which remain on roof tops and other elevated spots. I don't mind at all.
9:15 Nice shot the brain spread out.
Yes, it was pretty gruesome and spectacular at the same time. Thanks 👍
where can i buy that rifle send me information
Of course, man: www.hubenairguns.shop. It's where I got mine. The shop owner is called Francisco and he ships worldwide.

🤣 Laughed my arse off, mate 😉 I admit it, never liked fishing and never been good at it. Cheers 🙂
I love the videos but hate the music. Stunning shooting! Awesome head shot! Keep them coming (without music please)
Yes, the music... Some people say they enjoy it, others, like you, say they prefer the vids without it... Buddy, an honest question: is there a type of music you would enjoy in the background? Thank you for your positive feedback 🤝
@@AirRifleActivities you never going to satisfy everyone, hate is a strong word. Maybe you can alternate the videos. I'll still watch them whether the music is there or not so don't worry. I like to hear the thud of the pellet when it hits the bird and the thud of the bird when it hits the ground but the music makes that almost impossible so maybe just don't play music during those parts.
I have the black version of that stool oh and two it would be better to buy one of those grab sticks like I have makes picking up pest a whole lot easier guy's 😉
Yeah, bud, you're right, it's just birds don't fall in that small pond too often, but it's kinda fish farm, so I wouldn't want to contaminate the water. Thanks and stay safe 🙂
