Pesting#93 - Starlings Heaven part 1

[Max115]

Thanks to the blueberries season, there are tons of starlings to shoot at the Dairy farm as they would stop in to rest and feed. My FX Crown was spitting the H&N Baracuda 18gr pellets out repeatedly. They were tagged between 20 - 90 yards. Too many starlings got shot over the weekend so I had to split the videos into two parts.

Hope you will enjoy this one.

Dang euro birds dropping left and right

I wish we had a as plentiful pest to shoot over here in the old world, but even if we have starlings galore i dont think they are considered a pest in a general way, but i am sure the individual farmer might feel different when they swarm in to feast on his dime.

@plingpling. Yes one of two starlings is not a problem, but if hundreds or thousands of them swarming your farm, the damage is unbelievable. I am lucky I got this permission and so is the farmer. There are just too many of them around compare to the small percentage that I did get, that is just a small dent in the population. Thanks for watching.

Great vid, those 18gt baracudas look like they shoot pretty darn good out of your rifle !

@fdales17. Thanks. Yes the Baracuda is very good and consistent in my guns. My other go to pellets are the AA16 and 18gr.
