Rats Shoot With Air Arm S510 .177 Cal low power

I got the replacement o-rings for my Air Arm S510 .177 cal earlier than expected so I jumped to the opportunity to set it up for the indoor rats shoot right away.

I paired it with the Pard008 LRF and it was a deadly combination where I was able to tag 10 unlucky rats with 10 pellets. A perfect outing for me to remember and proud of.

The gun was zeroed for 15 yards and I did POA for 5 - 20 yards to figure out my hold over/under. After a few minutes of POI confirmation, I was ready to hunt some rats for the night. Unfortunately, I had forgotten the SD card for my Pard008 LRF as I left it in my computer loading port. I guess I was too excited and eager to go down to the farm that night. Since I was already down at the farm, I decided to just shoot and do some pest control without any videos capturing.

5 rats were quickly disposed of ranging from 12 - 18 yards. I was also using my OneLeaf NV100 scope as a handheld to scan the area and I realized that it has a SD card in it. So I was lucky in a sense and loaded it into my Pard008 LRF. I was then able to record the next 5 rats kill shots with two amazing shots at two rats up on the rafter, 18 feet high and 25 yards away. Two perfectly placed shot to the head/neck and dropped them like a brick. I was very proud of myself indeed.

This low power 12 ft.lb air rifle is a joy to shoot and I am glad to be able to use it for this indoor shoot.

Enjoy.

 
Good job on punishing those rats… I like how you show how much patience it takes to actually be able to send a pellet. Being hasty and missing simply educates them to new dangers. Rats are nasty, but they are smart and wary, so sending sure kill shots is the way to go. Enjoy the video very much @Max115🙏

Thank you L.Leon. I agreed that they are very smart and I am sure they would communicate and warn each other if one escaped from a missed shot. Although I don’t think they care too much when they saw dead bodies lying around as I have noticed watching them through the scope cam. They just went about looking for food.

They do stay very wary and alert after hearing the pop sound from the gun discharge and body impact.

Yes, I do have a lot of patience through years of practice lol.

Cheers.

Max , great patience & shooting! I haven't been ratting for a couple weeks, last time out I got 3. It's cooled off a bit so now may be a good evening to try a trip to the barn.
