I really enjoyed this video, there are no Magpies where I live so its nice to see something new.
Thank you, Steve 🙂 I'm glad I could bring some variety to the channel, although not nearly as exciting as your reptile adventures 🙂
Maybe because dumby shoot them
Thank you for the great video, Alex. Congratulations for the shots. Absolutely amazing. A big hug from Brazil.
Obrigado, my friend 🙂 Most kind of you, many thanks 🤝
Finally some L2 action! Love the video :) can't wait for some more..
There will be more, Filip, thank you, friend 🙂
I'm glad you began the vid by showing the carnivorous nature of these birds. Ted Bier did that on some of his vids as well. The slo-mo of the shots hitting that puddle were interesting, the sound became like that of a bottle-rocket. Great shooting as always. Thanks for sharing.
Many thanks, David 🙂 I could've shown fragments of videos of magpies attacking smaller birds, instead of images only, but I couldn't get in touch with the creators and ask for their permission. Anyways, I appreciate your comment, friend, cheers 🤝
Another great video, Alex!! Keep up the good job!!
Thank you, friend 🤝 It really means a lot 🙂
Always a great presentation of shooting and videography Alex. Enjoyed it thoroughly. Will check out black paw for sure.
Thank you, Bret 🙂 I'm sure he'll appreciate it - I know I do; I value your support highly, friend, cheers 🤝
Quality again.. King of the neck shots
Thank you, Robert 🙂
Awesome video Alex the 90 yard shot you can see the pellet curve right into the bird great job buddy really enjoyed it thanks for sharing bsafe buddy..... that gun looks badass and fun to shoot
It really is, Chris, a great backpack companion, that packs a punch. Thank you 🙂
They are really great guns, the double tap is great! Just get through a lot of lead! 😜
@@NigelNige 😄 Good thing there's no ban on it yet 😄
@@AirRifleActivities I hear you brother 👊
Magpies have literally taken over my yard and run off every good bird around. Just saw one kill a robin the other day, he tried to flutter off and the magpie pinned him down and just poked at him till he was dead. I can't believe they are protected. They deserve much worse.
That's what I try to explain to all the people who are against culling magpies. They destroy avian biodiversity. Here by me not only they are nor protected, you can shoot them all year round.
Smash the magpies nest.
Awesome vid.. Thank you.... Can't wait till you can get back into that grain warehouse, that's my favorite site to watch you in...
Thanks, mate 🤝 I've been expecting a call from that place for some time now. I'm also actively looking for new permissions of that sort.
Hey Alec I very much appreciate the shout out and thanks for another quality video. More content on my channel soon all. Had my prophet stolen so after insurance settled I’ll be starting again and also moving.
I hope you sort that thing out soon, friend. It really sucks... And you're most welcome. Looking forward to your next videos 🙂
Thanks Alex, some excellent long distance shots with the L2.
Ed will have his big grin, while watching.
Thank you, Henry 🙂 I seriously doubt Ed watches my videos, but thanks 🙂
@@AirRifleActivities I bet he does.
There aren't that many Leshiy videos on TH-cam to be honest. I've probably seen them all. As a CEO of a small company he probably keeps track of companies reputation online. Or someone tells him at least and probably shows him the good videos.
This being a good video! 👍
@@dangerous8333 thank you for having such a high opinion of my videos, Dan 🙂 It goes without saying how much I appreciate it.
Oh welcome back dude! Missed your videos!
Thank you, brother 🙂 Sorry for the wait. I appreciate your patience.
Another great video with a great mix of pests to control, loving my L2 also,they are great guns, keep the L2 adventures coming please my friend 👊🇬🇧
Will do, Nigel 🙂 Thank you kindly for your support, brother 🤝
Great shooting! Thank You for sharing!
Thank you so much for watching and for the comment, Brian 🙂
Excellent shooting once again Sir.
Thank you kindly, Marek 🙂
Great video and nice shooting good to see you knocking down there numbers. Cheers
Many thanks, Donald 🙂
You are doing a great job thank you!
Thank you, Carl, I appreciate it, bud 🙂
Great video Alex, I'm not a hunter myself ,more a target shooter but I could shoot magpies and crows all day long ,there evil sods ,here in the UK we have a problem with crows killing baby lambs!
Thank you, Scott 🙂 I can't imagine being a farmer and my livestock attacked and killed by corvid. I would snuff out every single one of the sods (well said) in the entire area.
Bastard birds kill everything they can.
Your passion is awesome great video sir
Thank you, Mark, you flatter me 🙂 I think the guns outshoot me every time, mate 🙂
Great shooting as usual, excellent content! Greetings from USA...👋
Thanks a mil, Eduardo 🙂
Great video. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching, friend 🙂 Means a lot!
This Is the Best channel
Most kind of you, mate 🤝 I'm really glad you find the content so entertaining 🙂 Thank you!
Perfect, 👍👍👍! Thanks for your job!!
Thank you for watching and the comment, Anton 🙂 Means a lot, buddy.
👍😊✊I also have Leshiy 2, 25 cal. Wonderful product! It's makes me very happy, I will wait for new video's from you👍!
hi just subbed your channel, may i ask what ftlbs your gun is set at. what calibre. and what your zero distance is.
Thanks and welcome to the channel 🙂
The rifle is adjustable. I've shot it with different projectiles and at different power levels. As far as I recall, in this video I was shooting the 25.4 grain diabolo pellets (.25 cal) at 880 fps and my zero was at 60 yards.
Love seeing Magpies getting nailed, bloody hate them, I get loads around me but unfortunately I'm not allowed to shoot the mores the pity, don't see them so often on my permissions, nice video as always
Thanks, brother 🤝 Yes, in some countries they are off limits...
Poison them
@@harriethare2200 never. Poisons the entire food chain
Really good shots bud👍
Thank you, friend 🤝
Great shooting, Magpies are a Wiley foe!
Thanks, Bobby 🙂 I gotta make another one of those videos.
Beautiful rifle & good shooting
Thank you, friend 🤝
Great shooting buddy. I love it with you using the Leshyi.
Hey, Johnny, it's been a while since the last time we talked 🙂 I hope you're good, buddy. Thank you for your comment. Another L2 hunting video is in production, going live very soon. Cheers.
@@AirRifleActivities Thank you. Alex its great talking to you buddy I am so thankful for your help and kindness to me through the years helping me out with my questions with my gun. And im doing good and im happy your doing good also stay safe my friend and cant wait for your next LESHYI HUNT.
Boy I do enjoy your videos
Thank you, Keith, means a lot, friend 🙂
How powerful is your airgun? We are limited to 16joules in UK, not sure about body shots at this power.
It's more powerful than that, mate. I know of your 12 fpe/16 J limitation in the UK. Mine is what you'd call an FAC air gun. As for body vs. head shots - it also depends on the distance.
very nice video thanks
I thank you too, friend 🙂
ma man farming feathers and meat for survival
Not really in this case. More of a pest control thing.
So Im used to shooting regular guns, but ammo has become so expensive I can't do it as much as I would want to. Do know any pellet rifles with a good amount of kick?
A lot of powerful airguns on the market these days, bud. Benjamin Armada, AirForce Texan, Umarex Hammer, Sam Yang Sumatra (or Seneca Sumatra as it is known these days)... These are amongst the most powerful airguns. There're more, but these should be a good starting point. I hope this helps.
@@AirRifleActivities thanks man
Nice 1 Leshiy 2 Video!!
Thank you, friend 🤝
Brother what is the distance you zero your air rifle at for hunting ?
Hey, bud. Usually at 50 meters. Bear in mind the angle is also of importance.
Nice to see the Leshiy out in the field
Thanks, Edgar, it was fun, although the magpies are not easy targets.
For me at the moment no birds coming out hope they do soon come out as i have all thjs kit ready to shoot.
Nice work.
Cheers, mate 🙂
how do you recover the bullets if you shoot in the water?
I don't. And I shoot rarely in water, by the way, although I don't see the problem.
nice shooting and A great video
Thank you, friend, I appreciate it 🙂
The best video. Continue hunting L2 for even greater distances (100 yards / or meters). How many fps did you shoot?
Thank you, buddy 🙂 I shot diabolo pellets at 870 feet per second. More videos of the L2 coming soon, yes.
Nice video my friend.. effort, fatigue and beautiful photography.. thanks for everything beautiful in the video..
I'm grateful for having you on board, brother 🙂 Thank you!
@@AirRifleActivities 👍🏻😀
Nice 👌
Thanks, bud 🙂
Had to swing by Hard air magazine to check the bc and to my surprise the .25 25,39grain and the .22 25,39 grain
where basically the same, 0.038 for the .25 and 0.039 for the .22 I would think that the .22 just might be a little less
affected by the wind due to its smaller size but I don't have any experience shooting either of them in windy conditions though.
Thanks for bringing us along on yet another pesting adventure! Them Magpies are on another level of awareness compared to the pigeons. Great shooting as usual! Big thumbs up! :-D
Hasse, I've heard and seen all sorts of BC stated for the Monsters Redesinged. One source even said 0.053. Edgun even claims that their die is 0.058 😉 However, I'm pretty sure the Redesigneds in .22 have a better BC. Also, it is my firm belief it varies from gun to gun, and barrel to barrel. You can easily measure the BC of your gun with a chronograph which allows you to squeeze in a shot at a distance of say 30 or 40 meters.
Thank you kindly for your positive feedback 🙂🤝
You are worth a lot of positive feedback! Yes I think the difference ought to be higher than that. 😊
That was some great shooting accounting for the severe wind. I have about 10 magpies that land in the fern trees in my garden. So far I’ve shot about 5 of them with my 22 but they just return with more magpies. Noisey bastards wake me up every weekend. Great video❤
Thank you, friend, and keep up the good work - nasty but intelligent creatures, they'll figure out your garden is off limits soon.
Good video and good shooting!!
Many thanks, Chad, glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Strangely satisfying....thay wake me up every morning at 4:30, 5:00....I live in flat in a city, and I can't shoot them. They are a lot and they ate every little nice sounding bird.
Any ideas how to get rid of them, tried with sounds....no effect.
Thanks, buddy. And I completely agree with you. I don't see another way to deal with them. They're way too cunning and sneaky.
No lack of Magpie's - great shooring! ✌
Yes, they're pretty wide-spread and always up to no good, thanks, Lee 🤝
Nice shooting bud keep it up
Thanks big time, Marno 🙂
Fantastic shooting there vermin we shoot them to a great video good shooting and I like that rifle heard about it but first time watching it does the job
Thank you, Stephen 🙂 The Leshiy 2 is really something. The first time I held it it felt a little unusual to me, but now it's my go to gun.
Buen video, saludos desde Chile!!
Muchas gracias, hermano 🙂
Hola muy bueno el video y control de plaga excelente tiros saludos de Chile
Muchas gracias, saludos, hermano 🙂
Nice shooting matey 👍
Cheers, Andrew 🙂
Good video pal
Thank you, Alex 🙂
Regards...
Alex 😄
They might be protected around here but if I catch it killing swallows I really like having around.. I'd rather have the swallows.
Completely understandable, bud.
Good shooting my friend. Enjoyed the video!
Thank you, Bobby 🤝 Really appreciate it mate 👍
Que calibre utilizas ? 22, 25 ?
The Leshiy 2 I used in this video is .25, amigo. Thanks for watching and have a Happy New Year!
07:24 such position we named "Montana" and the "Luster" on 06:32
I knew about the Montana, the "Luster" I hadn't heard about 🙂 Thanks, mate, I learned sth today.
@@AirRifleActivities One more position named "bicycle". Try to understand what it means ;)
@@TheUser412 another word for a "cling-on"?😉
@@AirRifleActivities the position on the back, paws pedaling
Alex, you are the real badass crowhunter )))
😄 Thanks, man, you give me too much credit. Still need to learn stuff about hunting those birds.
Merci
I thank you too, mate 🤝
Ooo yes 💪 nice pesting control 😊 magpies and crows not easy target, good shooting Alex 👍
Thanks a mil, brother, you're spot on, those are no pigeons 😉
@@AirRifleActivities I'm hunt them as well, reason why I cnow 😉 wery careful and smart birds 😎 but it more interesting hunt them then pigeons 😀 Locking forward to new video 👍
Awesome shooting!!!! Would be great to get a chance to test a Leshy but it‘s not easy here in Austria cause of the silenced shroud. 😞
Thank you, Andreas. Airgun suppressors are illegal in Austria?
@@AirRifleActivities yes they are if you dont have a hunting licence.
Great shooting on those Pica Pica..they are pest!
Indeed they are, Manny. Thank you, friend 🤝
Отличная работа👍👍👍
Спасибо, thanks a mil, mate 🙂
nice one Alex.
Thank you, Alex 🙂 I keep not getting notifications for your videos... Gotta stop by and see what you've been up to lately 🙂
@@AirRifleActivities no worries. I haven't been shooting lately anyway. Too busy with work and recently got a new puppy and he keeps me extremely busy and tired, lol.
Great hunting! Magpies sure are the most horrible creatures. Both my parents were bird lovers, but they were not on their list! I have counted over 35 at one time, roosting down in South East Kent. I managed to kill a small number myself, over the years with an old, but very powerful B.S.A. air rifle. This was at fairly close range, where I will add they make themselves very difficult to hit.
Thanks, friend, and great job on those magpies, not easy targets, like you said yourself 👍
Nice shooting! .25 caliber JSB’s?
Yes, buddy 🙂 34 gr the first day, 25 gr the second and the third. Thank you 🙂
Try to use magpie sound/ call very effective to attract bird, using Bluetooth speaker
I did, but I admit I had my smartphone only, no speaker 😄 Sounds silly, I know. Next time I will definitely get a speaker. Didn't have one with me at the time.
Good one Alex. Sorry it took so long for me to watch been hard to concentrate lately but I'm trying to catch up.
Nothing to be sorry about, brother. I know you're going through some extremely difficult times, it's an honor to have you watching despite everything. Thank you, friend. I pray to God for your quick recovery.
@@AirRifleActivities it's less than fun for sure. The lack of energy is what bothers me the most because I want to get things done but just don't have the go.
We don't have these Eurasian magpies here where I live in Canada, but we do have those darned starlings. These disgusting pest do similar damage to smaller birds and spread filth and destruction all around.
You have had good and accurate shooting shown here, keep it up!
I do enjoy your videos.
Thank you so much, Reg 🙂 And sorry about that European import - starlings are a menace here too.
@@AirRifleActivities Hahahaha,... we can't stop nature, but with the help of some accuracy in shooting like you've shown, we can reduce them somewhat, can't we?
@@regsparkes6507 you definitely can. Culling works despite what some people may say.
@@AirRifleActivities Facts, are self evident truths, so I've been told.
You keep the videos coming, and I'll watch them.
Regards!
@@regsparkes6507 Actually lots of nature spreads around because of humans, so we could stop it technically.
is caliber .30?? Greetings from Mexicoo
Hola, Adolfo. No, it's a .25 cal. You can see a list of my gear in the description of the video. Thanks.
@@AirRifleActivities Graciaaas
I live in the US, and if I ever see a Magpie I would never, EVER, shoot one. I promise and swear. Yup, yup, I would never shoot one. Nope, not me. No way, no how.
🤞😉
😄😄 Be careful, bud 😉
And thanks for watching.
Хороший фильм, я тоже при удобном случае сорок постреливаю. Много вреда они приносят.
You're absolutely right, Sanya. Keep up the good work and thank you 🙂
Is your Leshiy 2 a reaper model?
By reaper you understand the one with the adjustable reg?
@@AirRifleActivities yep, I have the first version of the Leshiy 2 before the reaper reg came out. Just recently added a reaper regulator to my Leshiy 2.
@@jamesbrownmiller808 to answer your question: yes, it is. Around hear they market it under the name EAR 😉
Сороки и вороны очень сильные вредители .Благое дело делаешь брат!!!
Thank you, friend, спасибо! 🤝
Nice shot! 👍 I just hope that in the next video it will be the pigeon pest control 😅
Thanks, mate 🙂 These places appear to be busy right now, but I'll try to deliver sth good nonetheless. Stay tuned and cheers 🙂
I'll still waiting Alex, 😐 😉
Good to see magpies taken out they do so much damage to the song birds
You're spot on, Mike, although many people fail to understand that. Thanks, buddy.
A wrist rocket can come in handy.
"Wrist rocket"??
Where I live MP very skidish. Any movement of hunter they see it. Consealment is needed to get any shoots.
It's pretty much the same here, mate. The young and silly ones are an exception sometimes. This video was not an easy one to shoot.
nice pest control video on magpie.s
Thank you, friend 🙂🤝
MUITO BOA ESTA CAÇADA PARABÉNS VOU ACOMPANHA O CANAL DO SEU AMIGO.
Obrigado! Many thanks, my friend 🙂
I'm guessing the dogs didn't have much interest in the magpies because as far as I understand, corvids as a whole (crows, ravens, magpies, jays and others) are rather unpalatable, unlike pigeons. The pups didn't look thin enough to be desperate for meat.
That's exactly my take of the situation, bud 🙂 Thank you 👍
@@edwardlionheart6350 actually, they're being used as guard dogs at a nearby facility, so they feed them 🙂
👌😁
🙂🤝

Thanks, man, I appreciate it 🙂
👍👍👍💪
Cheers, bud 👍
great vid and shooting as usual, nice change from the pigeons, still have to laugh at you four legged followers.
They never fail to amuse, don't they😉 Thank you, John 🤝
Cookoos too!
Not many of those here by me, Dan. Actually, I haven't seen one for some time now. But I am aware of their parasitic behaviour.
Nice work, but I miss the feeding of feral cats.
😄 I hope to be able to make one of those soon again, Eric. Thanks 😊
Hate these birds but I believe they are protected in the UK
I'm not in the UK, bud. And you're right to hate them, they do have a negative impact on avian biodiversity. Open season all year round here by me. Thanks for watching.
Excellent video they are horrible birds so was very satisfying to watch, have loads round where I live have a rifle but could definitely do with the one you have
Thank you, friend, and you have a go at them as long as your rifle enables you to dispatch them humanely.
👍👋
🙂🤝
Hello enjoyed the video,and was wondering if you will be able to donate tail feathers and wing feathers after taking magpies,awesome video let me know if you can donate and of the feathers for project use.thank you again
Buddy, thank you, but I didn't keep the birds and I rarely shoot those.
👍🏼👍🏼😎😎
Thanks, bud 👍
Отличная охота на этих вредителей!!!👍👍👍 Привет из России!
Привет, Александр 🙂 Thank you kindly, mate, спасибо!
