This video is made up of my latest attempts to control the pest population in my area 
There is one long range shot in this video using my .25 Mrod. The shot was right at 100 yds with a slight breeze blowing right to left. I had to aim about a mil dot off for the wind and almost 4 mils hold over. This shot shows the perfect example of what can go wrong to mess up a shot at such long distance. When I squeezed the trigger the starling was standing up right but as the pellet approached he squatted slightly causing the pellet to hit slightly higher than I was aiming for. The .25 pellet still hit vitals and killed the bird but a little more squat and the pellet would have cleanly missed or just injured the starling. If this shot was with a .177 the starling might have needed a follow up due to less energy and a smaller hole. So many minor things to go wrong on 100+ yd shots that you cant predict. Thats one reason I dont take long shots on game animals. I dont want my meal to hobble off and die somewhere I want to make sure its going down where I can retrieve it 
I used three rifles in this video: BSA S10 .177 @ 10.5 fpe, AA S510 .22 @ 28 fpe and my Mrod .25 @ 43 fpe. Hope you guys enjoy this video.
