Shooting off hand like that is so fucking HARD. People probably don't get how much skill it takes to do that accurately. Bravo bro! But ugh, clean your mags dude 😂😂 Edit to the people saying "Just get a new rifle!" He literally said he did. But he has to do a waiting period before he can go get the new rifle. Fuckin watch the video before commenting.

As a Kentuckian, it’s absolutely insane to me that my man has such big work to do and can’t get a decent rifle. 😩 It’s a worse deal for the camels as well.

As another West Australian shooter, it's frustrating for everyone involved with firearms in this state. I'm still baffled at the nerve of Cook and Papalia. The new laws (which thankfully aren't in place yet) could be enough for me to leave WA, but as we all know, laws like these never get repealed in this country. I fear WA is a testing ground for the rest of the country. EDIT (posted this further down, but I'm also going to put it here in the off chance I can change even one person's mind) - We already have extremely strict safe storage requirements, and Australia is already one of the world's safest countries with regards to firearm crime and the public. These new proposed changes will not make a dent in organized crime and trafficking of illegal firearms (in fact, anecdotally, I argue they could even bolster the illegal firearms trade, as more than a few people have told me that they will simply "call up their mate" and get a firearm illegally if the new laws make their lives too difficult), all that will come of them will be increased costs, red tape, and hurdles for law abiding firearms owners, and the clogging up of an already struggling mental health sector. As a legal firearm owner, I am worried. The legislation is vague, it's overreaching, it's unsustainable, it unfairly punishes people like myself who do the right thing, AND it won't even achieve its stated goals. Australia absolutely does not need any further restrictions on firearm use (and I'd argue they've been excessive for too long - there are many, many hypocritical and nonsensical rules in place that amount to little more than fearmongering.) People who commit crimes are already barred from owning firearms, and heaping yet more restrictions onto the backs of legal firearms owners will never change this. The Western Australian government has zero opposition, and is able to enact any laws they wish. This is EXTREMELY dangerous to a democratic nation - when a government has no opposition, it means that democracy is effectively dead. Western Australians need to realize this, and they need to realize it fast. Papalia and Cook are engaged in nothing more than security theatre, designed to target a minority of Australians that the public have very little empathy for. Today it's firearms owners, but tomorrow, it could be you - and they will have no opposition to prevent them from enacting any laws they wish. Anybody that is passionate about the environment, political landscape, mass surveillance, etc. who attends protests or voices their concerns online in Australia is in very real danger of having their rights taken away, and Australians are too apathetic to do anything about it. We NEED to start caring more as a nation, because privacy, civil liberties, and freedoms have been eroded beyond what I could have ever feared over this last 15 years particularly. Australia is in a position that must be carefully-navigated, or the next two decades are going to see things become very, very difficult for the average person. Just a few things to think about. I urge you to look further into these proposed laws and really think hard on what they're really trying to push with them (and it has nothing to do with public safety.) Ask any legal firearms owner - we are some of the most responsible people in the community, because we have permanent targets on our backs. We CANNOT afford to screw up, or we lose our tools by force. The data backs this up; so why these new laws? Who benefits? Who gains more control as a result of them? Why even further restrict laws that were already extremely effective? Every Australian loses when laws like these get passed, because they'll eventually come for all of us. Don't let the corrupt, power hungry crooks win, or modern Australians are finally going to realize what they're going to lose - and will realize it too late.

I'm extremely impressed with the marksmanship this man has, especially with the difficulties of the equipment he is using. That rifle struggles to cycle an impressive amount.

“Hey buddy” the camel:👁️👄👁️

As a French hunter I understand your scares because we have here one of the worse legislations about weapons and we can loose easily our right to keep them , for instance if you are involved in a small fight (even in self defend) but on the other hand , the bandits and drugs dealers own illegal AR and hand guns without any problems !

Mate the way youre clearing those malfunctions is just beautiful, the speed of which youre reacting just shows how skilled you are with even a shitty rifle.

I wasn’t even aware that camel over population was an issue an Australia! Thanks for educating me, and keep up the good work on maintaining a balanced ecosystem.

I'm canadian indigenous, from a family of avid hunters and sport shooters, and I gotta say, for my first time seeing your stuff, your efficiency when culling large groups on your own is honestly really impressive, and I 1000% understand your frustration towards the firearms law changes amd general stupidity of it, it seems that even when we have license and purchase systems that are safe, politicians, even ones from our own parties and voting blocks, just find new ways to complain, fear monger, and make the laws even more restrictive towards us when they dont need to be.

Excellent job Jack, sadly there are too many people who have no idea the damage that introduced / pest animals have in the Australian ecosystem. they think poor animal why cull them , yet they never consider the impact on or loss of native species endemic to small areas, having grown up on National parks in north Queensland and having been taught about the aspects of conservation and animal management I can truly back your work here.

I'm from a sleepy town in Mid-Missouri, USA and I am a gun owner/enthusiast. We have the invasive issue with feral hogs here and we host a many encouraged hunts to cull the population. It's wild to hear how strict gun laws are across the pond, anyone above the age of 18-21 that doesn't have a violent background can purchase and own as many legal firearms as they choose. I'm an avid outdoorsman and I never camp without my shotgun and .22, there are too many variables between fauna and shady people. I try to stay strapped everywhere I go.

As an American this is awesome well done, whoever says you don’t know you’re doing has never been outside their basement.

You have more patience with that rifle than I would.

I’m glad there are some sensible Australians out there. Our rights are being stolen from us as well here in the US it’s a constant battle

I have the same bolt issue with my old 303. What worked ever time for me was just putting my thumb on the very back of the bolt and pushing it forward when it jamed then used the bolt handle to lock it down. My bolt jams usually happened with a full magazine. I use graphite power to help ease the action. Awesome vid

Great job. Clearing malfunctions and staying accurate isn’t easy while moving.

As an American I came across this channel and love the work you are doing.culling and hunting are 💯 percent separate and I'm glad you said that .gotta do what ya gotta do my guy,also man you've got impeccable taste with the ole enfield.the ability to preload mags and that slick action make it a banner choice for control work.plus .303 is no slouch on those hairy spitting beasts lol

good work Jack, they are an introduced animal and are in pest numbers, I know some stations herd them up and export them to Saudi Arabia. i am glad to hear your getting a replacement rifle as well, this one has issues, with the mag feed , as you pointed out. I hope the replacement isnt too far off, and the one you have can be fixed.

Man that thumbnail looked like some kinda new expansion for theHunter. I did not expect some genuine aussie dude just vibin out

This could be a video game. The FPV, the movements, the constant shooting.

Great work Jack. Shame it’s so tough to get a good tool to successfully do your job and no doubt feed the people make it so hard for you. Farming with one arm held behind your back. Good to see this episode has drawn you a lot of positive support and comments.

I couldn't agree more with you. Great video showing what its really like farming sustainably & managing the land. I really enjoy your channel. Keep up the great work.

Brilliant video. I am glad you show this for what it is. Very well explained in the moment too, not an easy time to clearly communicate a sensitive topic. I'm in Victoria and despite our absolutely useless government, somehow we're still better off, for now. It's imperative we work towards maintaining our access to these tools that ensure our very unique environment and industry remains available. If we don't, we will all suffer as a result. Prohibition only ever leads to black markets and we do not want that.

This is interesting to see, love your commentary while running and shooting. And oddly enough, the humor you add when dealing with downed critters. I'll admit, it's odd seeing camels as invasive creatures, sort of like how wild hogs are that way in the states, but good to see people are keeping things in check. Additionally, hope things go well for the firearms reform in your country. Considering the wild shit that exists in your country in nature alone, I figured every home aught to have an RPG on standby just in case.

I'm not gonna lie, the thumbnail of the video kinda made me believe this was some kind of VR hunting game and I was really excited for it.

It’s always a problem when both levels of government are of the same political party . Even worse when their so far left . As an ex farmer I feel your frustration.

Dude the way you domed that wounded camel and just walked on by was Ice Cold. Looked like General Shepherd taking out Ghost. Sick.

honestly this looks like pretty damn good training, especially with the mag change on the go

You are doing a great job with the tools given.

Jeez that bloody AIA makes a mockery of the legendary Lee Enfield reliability. What a pain! I used to have a Lee Enfield .303 SMLE No.1 Mk 3 passed down from my Father and that thing was hard to jam, even when you tried.

As an Arkansan. A citizen of Arkansas in the United States, I am deeply sorry that you can not have a better firearm.

I have to say, even though the rifle clearly isnt running as smoothly as it could, its very entertaining to watch you use such a beautiful veteran rifle for real work

Good work Jack. I have just seen you latest video and submitted a comment re firearms regulations proposed changes. If the WA govt played their part and culled feral animals on crown lands, much of the work burden and cost that you and others in the farming and pastoral industry would be greatly reduced. Your conservation work should be encouraged, not made more difficult.

Nice work jack, 1 camel at a time mate your getting it done, love the rifle its got some character, enjoy the content..supporter from the pilbara 👍

Love that at 9:46 that is gold you didn’t give him a chance to say hey too 😂

Hey jack i saw u asking about rifles and optics.ruger and mossberg both make quality scout rifle systems that are magazine fed. Burris makes a really nice long eye relief scope that is reasonable priced. Good luck,shoot straight,if you cant,carry lots of ammo

Good job on that mob and agree with your comments regarding proposed changes to legislation, have also signed petition for extending consultation period, rejoined SSAA and joined Shooters Fishers and Farmers Party of WA so that some rational thought can be brought to the table that can benefit licensed and responsible firearms owners and allow farmers to farm in an increasingly difficult environment.

Dude you’re a stone cold baller! That run and gun is real! I am an elk hunter and a 22 year deputy sheriff, firearm instructor and gun owner.. I teach moving shooting and breathing all the time and you did a bang up job with the tools at hand.. Sorry you’re stuck with stupid gun ownership rules my friend!!

That's some hard doings right there! May sanity prevail, allowing reason to guide your legislators.

Working with that equipment is impressive and still getting the job done

Totally agree with you there Jack.

Man, as a hunter and first time viewer, when I saw how many boxes of ammo you took, I almost stopped watching right there. I get it now. 😀 My condolences on the stupid firearms laws, which from what I hear, has done nothing to protect anyone. Over here in canada it’s heading that way with new laws being passed in some pretty sketchy ways, and new rules being quietly slipped in. We’re fighting them in court, and trying to fight in the public opinion field as well.

I’m interested in your tikka comment, I use tikka action both for hunting rifle that sees 200+ round range trips for practice and for competition rifle that I recently ran twice per stage for 250 rounds in a morning, with 20-24 rounds per stage back to back. I have never had a swelling issue on my tikkas and am very surprised to hear it! Great video!

Savage model 10 and model 110 are very cheap here in the USA. are very accurate and pretty much indestructible. My model 110fp i bought in 2000, ive put 2000 rounds through the pipe and still have tooling marks throughout the bore, the first time i shot it, i put 80 rounds downrange in the first day and 120 the second day. And i was loading up and shooting each box as fast as i could cycle the bolt and reload till i knocked off each box and i had to walk 200 feet total to get the next box. That was the cool down period at which time id do a fast bore punch and swab then try to burn another box of 20 as fast as i could. I had also put a ceramic coating on that needed baked in tu cure it. It's a 30-06 and my shoulder just went numb. But i did carry that bruising for a month and a half. It is a heavier barrel than than a sporter but it is not the 1 inch barrel like the old M-40 i was issued when i was a Marine and i don't have as good of optics that that goat had, but i can stalk and hunt all the deer that I'm allowed in Nebraska and my rounds hit where the cross hair is settled on, and most of my kills are within 300 meters at most, i don't like risky shots, but most are usually less than 100 meters. But at the range i can still group a 5 inch pattern at 1000 meters, im not the same level of health as i was in 2000. I was 25 when I got this iron. But at the range, i usually shoot at 600 meters the majority of the time. My groups are a bit tighter there than 1000. And i don't get out to practice as much as i did earlier in my life, and shooting is a diminishing skill.

Can someone get this man some new mags and whatever parts he needs? Holy shit bro.

I wholeheartedly agree with every word you've uttered, however we need to be clear in our definitions and open our eyes to the big picture. Firstly, it's not the labour party in its historical sense, it's a socialist party and its long term multi generational goal is total control of every aspect of society. That total control is gained bit by bit, year on years and all in the name of the greater good and if you speak against it you're a radical, a reactionary, a racist, or a homophobe and you get vetoed on social media. Every attempt to change the law or the constitution is supported by violent rallies and protests to intimidate normal people into accepting what they're being told to do. Remember the mob rallies and abuse we got when we were told "go with the vibe" and "if you vote no you're a racist" or when essential workers lost their jobs because they didn't get a jab or wear a mask. It's happening in WA it's happening in Qld and it's almost totally complete in Vic. Wake up Australia there's a lot more at stake here than wearing a mask.

Every time you got jammed I went “OH NO RIMLOCK!

never thought id go onto youtube and watch a man dome some camels in the outback, this is amazing also if youre one of those people that say, "thats so wrong how dare you" gtfo, theyre not supposed to be there

I really wish I could send you an AR10. Really interesting video. The Go Pro run & gun and finishing shots were something out of a game. Im an American from North Carolina and I never heard of this camel problem in Oz. Best of luck man.

That was hardcore when he busted that one mid stride while talking

Good stuff. Being in the States I would never put up with that gun malfunction, but understand you're plight.

Awesome to see folks like you still out in the bush. I've been debating moving to Australia myself for a few years, do a contract with the ADF after my current contract is over. Doubt I could get the same licensing as you, but it gives me hope.

Gday Jack As a 45 yr involvement in firearm sports in WA has drawn to a close for me , now in QLD I can offer you a workable solution to your rifl6woes. Go to a tikka t3cx action with a 20 inch barrel and mate it with a MDT or similar chassis system. Totally configurable to your needs and gets rid of any bedding issues you are having with your tikka heating up in the factory stock. Optic option is a 1 to 4 variable short barrel scope. With the above set up use MDT maps, double stack them and twill have a spectacularly accurate, reliable set up which will make chopper and ground shooting all the much easier. And yes I have studied the Wa Legisand act back to front. I gave up trying because of the divided approach WA had. Too late now to try and be united the horse has bolted. And you have a majority govt that will fi as it likes. The big effort has been left too late I am afraid

Camel Hunter,looks like a Full Time Dream Job. Solong the Gov pay for Ammo,is it perfect.

This is by far the most metal shit I've seen in while. Those nonchalant dispatch shots hit different.

i know this means nothing to you but i very much so respect what you do mate, thank you

Very cool to see the old Enfield in action. So much history in the old war horses and they just keep on going. Edit: just realized it's an AIA, still cool.

@Jack out the back i think the springs in your magazines have gone tired probabaly because they're so old, try taking the springs out and streching them(make them longer), reinstall and see if your lee enfield feeds better then? also try lubricating the inside of your mags and rifle mechanism also. good shooting btw, cheers!

I have not seen malfunctions like that and as consistent as that ever. I just left the army after 15 years and 4 operational deployments. I have never seen a weapon system jam like that, that often. Crazy. Love the channel ❤️

Heyo, thanks for posting this! I'm just a little curious, I didn't quite catch it during the video: Are you paid to cull these, are they on land you own/help manage, or is this something the public pitches in with to help out?

People do not understand the checks that legit shooters go through to get the tools they need. Also culling is WAY different to hunting and if hunting wasn't even possible here the Greens have no idea as to the amount of damage pest animals can do. There is a serious disconnect between honest shooters and the general public. People do not understand. I'm in the Country Fire Service in SA and people in the city simply do not understand what we do. At work, and my family still in the city i get told "your a volunteer you can just not go". My reply is "next time you drive out there, i'll just not rock up". The look of disbelief that no one would come is palpable. People don't understand that land can only support so many animals. Pest animals put natural species under serious threat. You walk up and head shot a camel, rabbit, fox, goat etc and everyone goes nuts. Shooters have lost the PR war in this country since 1996 and there is no way to get it back that I can see. I hate it, have voted for so many years against it and nothing changes. We just get railroaded again and again. We have lost and it's just a case of trying to keep what we have now and it's all going

An awful ( but necessary) job being made even worse by a short minded government that won't allow the proper tools to allow the job to be done humanely.

Dude,you've got a hell of a take on run & gun! Great shooting with that used up rifle too,death on a barrel getting it that hot. You definitely got sorted. New Subscriber

It’s a shame you can’t have a recoil operated semiautomatic. I’m assuming your government won’t let people have them. Thank god for the second amendment here in the US

Great work mate. Yeah the old wa gov doesn't understand that a lot of us cull more than we hunt. We do it under a normal firearms licence as a corperate licence doesn't offer anything extra other than cost. No cat d unless you are gov. I run a ruger scout, verney carron, rem700 all in 308 and getting my 375 replaced with a zastava currently (as you mentioned long process in wa). All that i use for different camel culling in different circumstances. I also cull a number of other pests, with firearms set up for different circumstances, limiting to 5 will just mean the wrong tools will be used for the wrong jobs or some jobs cant be done humanly or effectively. While the criminals will continue to break the law.

Nice Jack , all in a day’s work 👍🏾

I have never had my Tikka t3 swell in the action, I've shot 50 rounds in short order with it, no problems. Perfect accuracy and function all the time.

Hi Jack, I agree with you 100%. It’s a different game when you’re running and trying to shoot. Keep up the good work

I just discovered this channel, interesting stuff! I can sympathize with waiting for the paperwork for a new rifle. I am currently waiting for a licence for a hunting rifle myself, I applied on August 16th, so it has been exactly three months now. The hunting season here in my country (Denmark) is September 1st to January 31st - this means I have today, November 16th, lost half of my first hunting season to the slow bureaucracy of the police. I hope you will forgive my ignorance, but are you legally limited to a small magazine? It would seem to me that for the type of culling you are doing, you would benefit greatly from something larger.

The WA firearms restrictions are completely impractical. This video highlights this. It must be worth going out on a quad or similar and taking 2 or 3 rifles to cycle through? Im a "card carrying" paid up member of the sffp and have been for roughly 10 years. If you have any interest in shooting, fishing and farming then you are wasting your vote by not getting behind them in your state.

I was gonna comment "pick up your rubbish" and then you literally explained why you were leaving them as I was about to type lol

I really like the Lee Enfield action. Is the feed issue with the .308 cartridge or the magazine? Only had the problem of the top bullet being behind the next one down once with the old 303. Apart from that it never gave any jams.

*VERY LONG COMMENT WARNING & APOLOGY* 🤣Great video Jack. Wow, the country is looking beautiful around you! Having lived and worked out your way and beyond for a decade (3 decades ago), your videos make me long for home. It felt more like home out there then anywhere else I've lived, even though I'm an inner-inner city girl. But I wildly digress. THANKYOU for showing and telling it how it is. I can only but imagine some of the commentary you might receive from the peanut gallery of ideologues from elsewhere. Most people outside of Australia have NO IDEA what a problem and how destructive introduced species like camels cause in the outback. If you care a hoot about the environment you would support and understand the importance of culling. Humans are the ones who've caused all of the environmental imbalance and destruction. It is our duty to put that right. To save further embarrassment I'm splitting my comment up🤣🤣🤣

I have just joined your channel and I'm enjoying it. Also, thanks for keeping our outback free of feral animals.

Hi Jack. Great Video thankyou. Appreciate your work too!👍

The way he just walks up on the one and just domes it🤣

Hope all works out for you in Australia 🇦🇺 we in uk have been having police clamping down on legal gun owners still plenty of illegal firearms being used by criminals but must be the legal owners fault politicians have there own agenda not the wishes of these they are paid to serve.

I remember watching something about invasive camels in Australia. And the cattle ranchers wanting to eradicate them until realizing the camels eat the weeds that the cows won’t eat and they’re actually good to have with the cattle.

thanks for sharing, it's a job, and you're the lucky guy that gets to do it

I think I remember Steve Irwin was saying something that the camels weren’t supposed to be hurting the Australian ecosystem. I guess he was wrong about camels as well as sting rays.

Good stuff 👍

love ur content! scope cam tho :) that would be so awesome! keep up the good work!

As an American with a massive wild hog epidemic, I feel your pain and frustration. Hopefully gun ownership in Australia can be restored. Godspeed my Down Under friend.

Holy crap! I thought “camel” was some kind of Australian slang for digerywombatamathing. They’re actually popping camels. Crazy…an invasive species is an invasive species…🤣😂😅

Wish I could like this twice. Y’all keep up the good work. I hate you can’t get your hands on some better rifles, but you’re doing well with what you’ve got. Good luck

Rough way that you have to do that! Really sorry for the bad equipment and harsh laws that you are dealing with to get the job done. Under the circumstances, you are doing a great job ! Hopefully your new rifle gets to you soon! God bless you for the hard work you are doing ! From Oklahoma City, United States.

Love that smell a territory car gets when the dust gets in and the moisture makes it all Manky…

Good work mate, all off hand, running and puffing is doing it hard. I've done a lot of feral control here in the NT and luckily we have more sensible gun laws here, I feel for you dealing with the WA bullshit. Ps I use tikkas with 10 round AI mags, they never miss a beat, does get hot and start spraying them a bit after about 3 mags though. 😊

Good on you Jack. Speaking the truth, a real Australian at last.

Great video! Good job young man!

The gameplay footage from camel destroyer 4 looks so realistic. I'll have to order a copy and get it downloaded.

Give these people their gun rights back

It is always a pain in the arse when you have numpties in cities who make law regarding firearms with no concept of why people on station have to have a reliable rifle and a back up, the fact that you already have a rifle and use it for culling should you NOT have to go through the same waiting period as someone getting their first rifle, I think that Clark McGhie (www.youtube.com/@ClarkMcGhiesWildCountry) would probably agree with everything you've said

Aside from very tight rules to access semi autos other have focused on, Australia also prohibits suppressors. Shooter fatigue / hearing loss and camel 🐪 scaring noise footprint would be significantly reduced with a good suppressor. In NZ anyone with a firearms licence can buy one and they are very popular. I have a couple and they simply make shooting more pleasant. Gun shops here routinely offer gun scope and suppressor package deals. Contrary to the movies they do not make a rifle quiet, just shift it from really really loud, to just plain very loud. Up to about a 20dB reduction.

It's one thing when firearm laws are strict on people who shoot solely for recreation but it really confuses me when laws make it harder and harder for people who need firearms to do their job. I as a joiner can't imagine having to endure background checks and waiting processes just to buy stanley blades, hammers and handsaws just because some bad actors might use them to cause harm.

Man’s play hunter call of the wild in real life

This is why it’s important for us Americans not to take our rights fore granted.

Wow man the way you handle that rifle! You must have a lot of round/hours on it! Great job!

The way this man shoots with that rifle and then camels better watch out when he gets a new one

What a fascinating situation this all is. Can't help but think how a Marlin Guide Gun in 45-70 would absolutely run this sort of work. Probably a hard to source caliber in your part of the world tho.
