- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ก.ย. 2024
- We join Mat Manning on a serious pest control session shooting grey squirrels. Careful preparation has paid off and Mat puts his Daystate Huntsman Safari airgun to good use, delivering clinical kills as the destructive rodents arrive at his bait station.
Also in this week’s episode, Mat Manning reviews the Crosman Prospect air rifle. This PCP airgun combines solid build quality and impressive accuracy with exceptional affordability, and looks set to be a winner.

I should be careful saying that you had a bit of a dangler whilst in the woods!😂 Merry Christmas Mat.
It was a bit cold for that...
Thanks for watching. Mat
I liked the bit where Mat screams "Die Squirrels!!!" While pumping lead full-auto
Another great episode and excellent shooting as always Mat also nice to see a Crosman review, I began air gunning with a Crosman some 30 odd years ago and I still own it to this day. 👍🇬🇧👍
Whitch model of crossman was it you started with merry Christmas too
@@Theshropshireratter I started with a 1979 760 power master (pre pump master) from the Coleman era, it's actually older than me and it was second hand when it was given to me. Eventually the valve internals gave up so I bought a new valve assembly and pump cup to get it working and taught my kids to shoot with it. 👍🇬🇧👍
@@OutdoorsBritain nice my first airgun eas a smk dB 4 underleaver 22 bought on holiday 2007 £30 brand new with 500 pellets spent all day convincing mum I was responsible enough to have one and eventually with help from dad got one £30 was a big dent in my savings but got me in the sport.
@@Theshropshireratter nice one. 👍🇬🇧👍
Glad to hear your Crosman is still going strong.
Thanks for watching. Mat
Love your videos,, I enjoy them and have learned a lot,, THANK YOU Mat,,,,,,
Hi Matt,
Thank you for showing us your squirrel footage and the kit you used.
I was looking at your tripod, and that looks like a great piece of kit too. I'm going to give you my honest, polite, humble opinion on what I think of it.
With respect, I've never picked one one up or handled one. They look super well made and machined, their quality looks excellent. However, they look quite heavy and bulky and look quite a bulk to carry around all day. I have a trigger stick. It's strong, sturdy and lightweight. It never lets me down and I really like it.
Your tripod Matt, at over £400, I think is a hell of a price to pay for a tripod when you think that an entry level pcp only costs £100 more.
I'm not for one minute saying your tripod isn't worth over £400. I'm saying personally, I think its a lot to pay, and an unexpected expense as most people think of their rifle, range finder, or thermal scope, as that.
In times as they are, and myself a while ago, I would have attempted to make something myself. Though that would probably involve wing nuts, so wouldn't work as a trigger stick would operating with one hand.
With great respect, Matt your tripod has made me appreciate my trigger stick and realise its handyness, worth and practicalability much more.
Your trigger stick maybe a ten from Len, but not Ian!
Best wishes, Matt, take care!
Ps. It's a hell of a thing to forget to bring home with you!
Did he disappear for a while? I haven’t seen one of these videos in ages. Missed it!
I took my show over to Shooting and Country TV channel, where it was called Airgun Action, for a year. Same owners now, so back on The Shooting Show - feels like coming home.
Thanks for watching. Mat

Merry Christmas, Mat. This old Yank certainly enjoys The Shooting Show every time its on.
Thank you, and thanks for watching. Mat
It's a good thing that he's got all that camo gear, if the squirrels ever saw him, he'd be done for.
Crossman was my first when I was 10. Used it for years. Its how I became a master shot with it and other pistola's. Then youtube got me into air rifling when I looked up how to kill rats with out using poison. Air guns was the very first thing on the search.. Ive been hooked every since, and I have YET to yeet me a rat. A few pidgeons of course and maybe a few of those few little black bird pests "I live on a farm" But not a rat. And those Corvids and some of those pidgeons as soon as they ever seen my rifle they are gone from that property for the rest of the day.
How about a look at the Daisy powerline 901?
🤣 Good one that😂😂😂😂
We are so grateful for these videos
And we're grateful to you for watching them!
Thanks for the kind words, and thank you for watching.
All the best. Mat
have a good christmas to you and the team for bringing us the vids
Thank you.
All the best. Mat

What damage are you implying these "destructive rodents" are causing?
This is basically entertainment for them....
Good question. Grey squirrels are an introduced species here in the UK. They carry, and are immune to, squirrel pox - a disease which is lethal to our native red squirrel. Grey squirrels also out compete red squirrels, and dormice and woodland birds, by dominating natural food sources because they are larger and more aggressive. On top of that, grey squirrels cause significant habitat damage by stripping bark from trees. This stunts the growth of trees - and often kills them - reducing habitat and food sources for more vulnerable species. I'm afraid it is another case of introduced species causing havoc to the existing flora and fauna.
Thanks for watching. Mat
How to train your body, vs. extremely weather and other beings? 😊
What?
Hoho yes!

14 minutes of watching you shooting squirrels & not even with the Crosman Prospect. Thanks for wasting my time
I like crosman but this is ugly
That crosman looks horrible and tacky definitely wont sell at that price
I would suggest picking one up and trying it if you get the chance. It feels very solidly constructed and is certainly accurate.
Thanks for watching. Mat
I will NEVER buy a crosman.
Wy not.
@@shirleydrury5565 Because of their terrible after sales service in SA. Worse you cannot get.
Its fx or nothing
@@kieran_92 Will not buy a FX either. Overpriced.
@@L.V-Rider you get what you pay for
