This shooting trip we are out hunting invasive feral pigs, foxes and wild deer. There's plenty of action packed footage in this video with my GoPro on a head mount in daylight. As usual there's also bulk kill shots with the thermal once it got dark too!!!
The grass is definitely sky high with feed levels at 6+ feet high in a lot of the areas we had access to in my mates Polaris XP1000 side by side buggy. Attempting to shoot a lot of country we can access was just not worth the time with such limited visibility, but we stacked up bulk animals out on the more open stubble fields.
Big thanks to my unnamed mate "Bucket" for the invite out seeking assistance on this contract for pest control. It's a beautiful area to spend time and I'm grateful to get the work up there.
Critters on the deck and not killing native animals and damaging agriculture is the aim of the game. These uncontrolled animals are an environmental and agricultural menace in Australia and are mostly classed as invasive pest species.
I am a vertebrate pest control - contract shooter in NSW. For those wondering about the suppressors, both my mate and I hold the necessary permits in NSW to do so. If seeking information regarding that, please check the FAR webpage for details. All shooting is performed on privately owned farms, with exclusive permission granted in writing for paid services.

Both rifles used are chambered in 308 Winchester.
Daytime pump action footage is with a Arrtech Prima XP, shooting Sako 130gr Hollow Point ammo.
Night time, I'm running my Ruger American Predator 18" rifle. This rig is fitted into a MDT Gen 2 LSS chassis, running reloaded ammunition with 150 grain Hornady SST projectiles. There is a sprinkling of subsonic rounds used which are reloads using 190 Sub-X projectiles. My thermal scope is the new Pulsar Thermion 2 LRF XG50. For a scanner I'm running a Pulsar Merger LRF XP50.
