- Air rifle & thermal rat shooting with the FX Impact M3 in 22 cal.
Out at a poultry farm tonight and there are rats everywhere.
Running the JSB Hades pellets at 600fps.
Super effective on the rodents at that speed while greatly reducing any risk of property damage.
I'm using the Pulsar Trail2 XP50 LRF thermal rifle scope and a carbon fibre tripod with arca swiss mount.
Great fun mate, that last one was a squirter.
Sure was. Didn't realise they had that much in them. 🤦♂️
The 308 didn't even make mice squirt Nathan 😉 💥 FX should be cheaper to run 🤣
Haha 😂
Good work Rodney! That would be awesome fun! Hope you can do plenty more of it. It's so satisfying watching rats get shot for some reason.
I know right. Definitely chasing more of this kind of work. 👌
Great shooting mate. I hope the farmer was indeed happy. I agree that varmint shooting is very entertaining. Cheers from Texas.
That was fun to watch, even brought back some memories of shooting mice & rats with the old pump up BB gun as a kid 🤣
I think we all had a crack at that when we were young fella's. Good fun for sure. 👍
Very entertaining 👍
Cheers mate 👊
Awesome! Looks like a ton of fun! That last one was a heavy bleeder!
Sure is mate. Thanks 👊
A challenging environment but you make it look easy. Well done.
Makes it interesting that's for sure. 👍
Gosh, the shot placements are so accurate.
Cheers mate. 👊
Aw man that was fun before thermal. I used to do this with the old fella when I was 8. Now I'm thinking it's time to get an air rifle and chuck 5 grands worth Thermal on it....fuck yeah... I gotta stop watching this stuff it makes me want to spend money I don't have and order pta's the qps can't 😆 🤣 😂
I can put some footage up of me throwing rocks at them, heaps more affordable 😂
That was my job as a child on a poultry farm. 22 with rat shot started when I was about 7 years old. Geez 61 years ago
Very effective control method John 👊
I think Joseph Carter the Mink Man, with dogs and Minks is far more effective method, in comparison.
I didn't realise I was competing with someone on the other side of the world. 🤦♂️
Now that looks like fun!
Sure was buddy. 👌
That scope seems to be discontinued...any suggestions on the next best thing?
Check out some of my more recent videos mate.
Running the HikMicro Panther PQ50L V2.0 👌
Hey champion, i have a serious question about a massive roo problem. How is it best to contact you?
Give me a call mate.

I might've written this before on here but in case I haven't there was this rat channel on TH-cam where if you commented and listed someone that has pissed you off - boss, ex, workmates so on so forth and you mentioned their first their name, next vid he'd assign a rat he was about to shoot with that persons name and add some cold blooded narration like Doc Holliday said to Ringo after he ventilated his head in Tombstone. It was hilarious. I can't remember what channel it was but!
😂. But I love everyone at work. 🤔
That is a fuck load of rats
Well done 👍🏻
Not any more. 😂
Looks like fun getting rid of feral animals
Heaps of fun and very effective 👌
love it, used to do that with an old springer shooting mice in my mates chicken coop many moons ago.
Bloody good fun 👌
Shoot a nice sized pig with it at 30yds. Have ur silencer attached! You'll be amazed with proper shot placement what a 22 cal air rifle can do!
I shoot pigs out to 50yds with my .22 and .250 AirForce TalonP. Both barrels are 24" and the TalonP is in stock configuration!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great shooting Rod- very different from bowling over the 🐷 with the .308! Very enjoyable.
Very much so Tony, literally from one extreme to the other. I love the diversity in my work. 👌
Nothing beats putting down the feral hogs at night but rat shooting on the weekend is good practice.
Absolutely. Love the trigger time 👌
G'day mate, 🎯 on those 🐀's! 👍🏻🐴❤️🤠🇨🇱✌🏻🍻
We need this guy in NYC
Now that would be cool 😎
I find this so relaxing. Fun all around, great viewing!
Thanks mate 👊
@@RJMHuntingAustralia I notice that you shoot through the wired chicken screens sometimes. What happens if you happen to hit the wire?
@dokkiro it usually causes a deflection mate
I use my Kral NP-03 on those critters! 🎯😂
I'm looking into the same setup doing similar work, FX M3 .25, 500mm
What is the practical range on the thermal for this size animal?
I shoot my .22 cal out to 50m comfortably on rats.
Rabbits out to 100m.
Further if you're using slugs
@@RJMHuntingAustralia Would you be comfortable taking a shot at a pigeon at say 75 with the thermal? No limitations as for as the scope is concerned? Thank you for your help.
Walk in the park for the thermal. I shoot rabbits at 200m with it on my .223
The limitations will be more so with the calibre and type of rifle you are shooting, not the thermal if you buy quality
@@RJMHuntingAustralia Thanks for answering, I'll be ordering the same thermal. Maybe I'll have to throw it on my .308 to see how far I can go with it. I'll never go over 75 with the FX, gotta run pellets because of ricochets.
A very nice setup. I run a little Weihrauch HW35 .177, 2-7x32, a red light and 7.25gr. slugs. Cheap but effective.
Lot's of awesome combinations out there these days that's for sure 👌
You got to post some videos id love to see that setup in action EMB
Always exciting, great content, love your work. Just ask for the thumbs up half way through the vid. I've missed a couple too close to the end. Been rivited with the show and ran out of time when you asked.
Lol. Thanks mate 👊
Sweet job
Thankyou
How about a field of mice???
That's definitely on the agenda 👊
Excellent as always. Does this pulsar scope have a ballistic calculator like ATN scope and calculate pellet drop automatically.
Unfortunately not mate, it's the only feature it is missing. 😒
Great vid. What Distance do you sight your 223 to? cheers
Generally bang on at 50m or 15mm high at 100m Tyler
Any chance you have links to the products you used? I have no idea where to start but have a lot of rats eating up my vegetable garden. They need to be gone! 😂 please 🙏
All the products I use can be found at the following link Brenda and are detailed in the video description 👌

Nice vid mate! I love my impact too 💯
Thanks buddy. They're an awesome bit of gear.
are you swapping scopes between rifles and re zero them each time or does the trail 2 return to zero ?
It's pretty consistent with return to zero with the Bobro QD mount, however I do regularly check zero.
5000$ scope????? Nooo, let them eat everything-its cheaper
Not gonna happen
That last one died like something straight out of an old Cowboys and Indians movie
😅
Loved the break dancing rat at 3.45🤣🤣🤣
Lol. Acrobatic lil fella. 👌
What settings are you running on your fx my mates is loud as hell
Dialed it way down to shoot the 15gr Hades at 600fps Aaron
To think back in the 60's I used to shoot rats with a Gecado 25 .I was stoked to get a few.
Technology has certainly come a long way. The little buggers can't hide from thermal and the air rifles are so incredibly accurate when tuned correctly. 👍
Ha ha!! Only Aussies and Kiwis know what chooks are!
😂
Awesome
Excellent shooting and video, subbed!
Thanks mate. 👊
Nice!
love it they cause lots of damage.
Thanks mate 👌
Nicely done! I've killed over 200 rats in my backyard over the last 2 years using everything from a Benjamin Marauder .22 bolt action with an ATN Thor4 thermal to a semi/full auto Hatsan Blitz .22 with the ATN or HALO thermal to a semi/full auto .25 cal LCS SK 19 with ATN and Halo thermal. The LCS .25 puts them down immediately but is a little overpowered for a neighborhood. IMO a .22 LCS SK 19 with a HALO thermal is ideal. The .22 Hatsan Blitz is a great option for less money but you can't add a suppressor. If you want to be suppressed pay up for an LCS. Just put out a few bird Feeders and the rats will show up at night.
Wow. You have some impressive gear mate. 👊
@RJM Hunting Australia The thermals are to take groups out feral hog hunting in TX but work great for rats if you stick them on a PCP. Wish I had a place to get 100 in one night though.
I'll have to trade you a night on the rats for a night on the hogs. 😂
@@RJMHuntingAustralia Come on out any time!!
Politicians (sorry rats) love bird feeders.
Great... now I want an air rifle...
It is an addiction 🤦♂️😂
💥💥👍
I'm a fan of the air rifle video, I'm interested in getting a set-up like yours, seem to be popular. How much does a set-up like yours cost in AUD?
Without the thermal scope ur looking at about 5k au.
Add another 7k to 8k for the scope.
Such a satisfying video
Thanks 👊
Really liked this Rat video. I helped my Brother scope and sight in his .177 pellet rifle just a few weeks ago. He was having Squirrels getting too comfortable on his house and deck. Now he's not the outdoors type like me, so I had to give him some shooting pointers. He's turned into a Demon with that weapon! LOL He's polished off 3 squirrels and 2 raccoons with that little set up. I think he is hooked. Thanks for sharing!!
Very cool. Air rifles are quite underrated. I love mine, fun to shoot and fairly cheap on ammo 👊
That last drop
Lol, definitely a bleeder. 🤦♂️
These FX firearms have totally changed the game with regards to the limited nature of 'pea shooters'...... absolutely deadly as Rod, U da maaan LoL !
Cheers mate. They've come a long way. So has the bloody price tag. 😪
@@RJMHuntingAustralia 😜 indeed. Felt a bit woosey and had to sit down when I got the quote for mine hahaha
Yep. Crazy but worth it.
Great video . Didnt wanna use the 308 on them like Nath 🤣🤣
Don't think the chooks would have been very happy if I did.
Good job Bruce.
Bruce.
That's one I haven't been called before 😅
@@RJMHuntingAustralia according to Monty Python all Australians are called Bruce
Haha. Yeah righto. 🤣
Nice shooting mate 👍 👌
Thanks Cathy 👊
Great video.
Thanks mate 👌
Too slow between shots!
It's always great to get positive feedback on entertainment supplied to you for free.
Thanks "Karen". 🤦♂️
