A crow at 555 yards. I would be happy at 55 yards, This guy can shoot

That zoom out from the first shot made me exclaim "What the actual F**K?!" Good shot, sir! That's such a tiny target at that distance. Keep up the great work!

The way you keep the crosshair on the heart after your shot in case you need to put another round into it to prevent suffering is the mark of a humane man, something Chris Packham could never even BEGIN to comprehend.

I love hearing the precision clicks of a well maintained bolt-action rifle. I could listen to a round being chambered for hours. LOL

I'm an animal lover, but after watching an horrific video of what these Crows and Ravens do to Lambs as they are literally being born, I have no problem with this whatsoever.... fantastic skill and job you are doing :)

Truly skilled marksman who knows and uses his equipment well.

Those who don’t like watching you bowl a bird at 100’s of metres, don’t admire your shooting skills. Cheers from Brizzy in Aussie

That’s some insane shooting, well done! Also I love how you load the round and doggo instantly knows what’s going on haha

I hope people who watch this can fully realize and appreciate your level of skill and the care with which you have chosen your equipment and produced your ammunition. Ballistics research is just one of the many aspects of being able to perform like this, among many other things that most people have no idea about. I thoroughly enjoy your videos, thanks. Truly precision work.

Think about this. This gentleman is shooting a projectile the same size as the end of your pinky finger at targets hundreds of yards away. Guy has ice in his veins... Truly magnificent and amazing to watch.

I'm sad to see the crows die due to them being my favorite birds but you got to do what you have to. Also amazing first shot! Definitely a true marksman 👍

You sir are a master of your craft! 👍 lm a farmer in the USA and always working at controlling predators and nuisance animals towards my fowl and goats, and for the preservation of wildlife. keep up the good fight and tell the nay sayers to piss off! farmer john

I had no idea that crows harmed lambs! Thank you for saving them.

Your service’s are quite needed for protecting the newborn lambs from the horrible death of having their eyes pecked out. You are their savior 🤙

Hi from Australia, I think it is a really positive thing that you are doing with your videos as to why it is necessary for protecting your livestock and livelihood. I am a city dweller but my wife’s family are all farmers of cattle and dairy who also have problems with safeguarding their farm and livestock with the feral dogs and pigs causing death mayhem and destruction of all kinds with their only method for protection is using firearms mostly with some trapping. Once again thanks for all the videos you make.🇦🇺

This guy has some very fine equipment and definitely knows how to use it. Incredible.

Only dedicated shooters can appreciate the level of marksmanship shown in this video.

Ah, this is no ordinary pest control, this gentleman is a professional! His dog knows it, the farmer knows it, and now I know it lol! Excellent video! Had to subscribe of course :-)

Some of the most impressive marksmanship I’ve seen! Well done! Range judging BD is one thing … but damn … you’re a master of the wind! And … Love your trusty companion! 😉

I am beyond impressed at your shooting skills. What a display of marksmanship. Absolutely floored at that first shot.

Holy crap! That first shot was surely Witchcraft

As a bow hunter, I'm speechless. My trophies are meaningless. You are a 1%er!! God speed my brother, You are a true guardian. 💪👊

You’re an amazing marksman! I raise cattle, so crows aren’t a threat to them, but are great pests for stealing pecans out of the trees we have. They have proven to me they are very intelligent birds. For those who don’t know, the pecans in the shell are grown on the tree within a larger hull. When the pecans start to ripen in the fall, this hull cracks and dries out, eventually splitting open along natural seems that spread open allowing the pecan shell to fall out to the ground. I remember one year we had an especially great crop of them and the crows were getting them before they fell. My grandmother insisted that we grab all we could before we lost them. When you try to open that hull before they crack open on their own, that hull is very tough and will stain your fingers brown. The stain is so durable you can’t wash it off. It has to wear off! Anyway, back to the crows. They would take these pecans in the hull and lay them out on the blacktop road. Not just anywhere, but in the “ruts” so to speak where vehicle tires would hit them! That takes more intelligence than I had ever thought they had before I saw it too many times to rule out by accident! This man has to shoot these crows at these great distances because if they spot him at normal to them threat range or hear the normal non suppressed report of a rifle, they are gone!

The dog is enjoying his purpose in life. A noble companion.

I can't be the only one here saying "BAM!" after everyone of these shots. They're seriously impressive considering how small the target is.

This guy embodies "love what you do, do what you love".

That 460 yarder was one heck of a shot! You, sir, are a sharpshooter.

WOW! I love this video. The shooting skills are fantastic. I consider myself a great shooter (expert in Army and Navy rifle) (Master in pistol as NASA Law Enforcement) These skills are fantastic. Most long range shooters with adult human size targets require a spotter. These guys are shooting pests with an annoyed dog wondering why there's no frisbee.

Just one word ,Brilliance .

I am amazed at how calm that dog is around the gun fire and how still it sits. I would of thought it would be freaking out every time he heard the bolt by now, really impressive bond you have with it.

The best overwatch anyone could ask for, truly outstanding marksmanship

I love how you have your companion hanging out with you while snipin crows hehe

I love the fact that there is full transparency for what you are doing.... those that know appreciate, those that don’t try to replicate and then appreciate!!! Full respect Simon.

You are an absolute surgeon with your kit. Magnificent long range skills. I'm very impressed with your quality weapons and optics. I salute you good sir.

I love how that old black Lab just sits there. You know he wants to go get those birds. Excellent marksmanship, Sir!

Jesus Christ that first 500 yrd plus shot was Magic you are very lucky to have your best mate with you a lucky black lab stay safe both of you keep up the great service you are doing for the farmers and the wilde life

Amongst a huge array of excellent shots - the 555 on the crow was incredible!

Hi guys first time watching one of your vids, what an amazing time you must have with your best friend by your side, true quality and marksmanship, professional operator who knows his onions, hats off to you Simon.

Great bullet trace at 6:19-6:20. Amazing shot. Thanks for posting!

I wouldn’t want to piss this guy off. Lol he can take you out from 5 blocks away. Much respect! I know first hand the damage these birds can do. You are doing a good thing, F the haters. Cheers man!

Incredible marksmanship! Well done.

That Sir is some of the very best shooting I’ve seen in a long time my heart felt congratulations, bloody brilliant.

The Owl was giving you the appreciation look award. Was a buffet for dinner for the Owly.

DUDE WTF that first shot was legendary! Considering how much the wind speed and direction can vary over just 30-40 yards that was remarkable! You are a true marksman.

I use your videos at times as training movies for young sharp shooters . There is lot to learn in your videos for those who want to make a mark. Your calculations are always very precise and your weapons response is superb. Keep doing the good work.

Exceptional shooting as always and having your dog with you makes it even better to me. You turned these crows into the kind of crows I like......dead. :-)

Nice work. I despise cruelty to animals but I applaud pest control performed as cleanly and humanely as this.

Rule number 1 as a fox: Don't ever stop moving Rule number 2 as a fox: If you hear kissy sounds, RUN!

Your shooting, especially of the birds, is simply amazing.

The music relaxed me while I watched you slay an entire animal kingdom. Nice shots Sir.

.243 is nowhere to be found on shelves and this man is shooting crows with it. Love it

11:53 hahah the Owl just astonished at your noise making powers that seem to eliminate pray at range 🤣

After really enjoying the work of you and your spotter from your last video, I was glad to see this one pop up. Once again, great stuff and great job by your spotter. Best wishes.

Awesome shots! To hit a crow at 555 yards: amazing skill! And I admire the patience you exercise, that you wait until the crow has completely stopped moving around.

I love crows and magpies, but you do what you need to do Awesome marksmanship

That first shot, when you panned back and the distance revealed itself...me, 😲!

Some great shots there again simon keep up the good work, love the twinkle in the dogs eye😄is he still thinking about that other dog 😜

That’s some damn fine shooting. I love how your spotter just hangs out too. Good stuff. I just watched a video yesterday in Scotland on how the corvids eat the eyes and tongues out of the lambs as they’re being born. Also they open up the sheep to get to the lambs in the womb. Pretty crazy.

This the type of dude to have government agents roll up to his farm and ask him for one last mission. And he always goes, “I don’t do that kind of work anymore.”

Ok bet even the other crows were like "DDDAAAYUUUM! Jimmy got smoked!"

Your spotter lying next to you really knows his business. You're decent also I guess.

Much respect for the shooter. Expert is an understatement.

This guy can REALLY shoot. My hats off. This is amazing.

Just re watching some old videos before you plucked up courage to speak on camera Absolutely fabulous stuff I never tire of it Enjoy you talking now though ❤

Thanks again Simon for the video

My dad used to say, you kill one and a dozen others show up for the funeral.

Outstanding skills on show there sir, very well done. Cutting small targets like crows at 555y in half is incredible. It did seem all the fox were wanting was a cuddle 😀

i have done alot of shooting in Australia eradicating pest and this is some of the best shooting i have ever seen well done Sir true Master Craftsman

I remember seeing lambs with their eyes pecked out by crows , when I was eight. 62 years ago.

Animal conservation at its finest, damn you can really shoot as well. Kudos on all your very well made videos which are both informative and interesting to watch.

What a Great Spotter he has, that Dog just Chilling on every shot !!! True companion, couldn't have done it without his Spotter 💪

Holy Guacamole! That first shot was incredible! 👍

Possibly my new favourite channel, I’m a UK gun lover who doesn’t own any yet. Hopefully one day this is the sort of shooting I would like to do. Awesome pal

You are a very skilled marksman. What a great work you are doing, and I'm sure the farmers there really appreciate the work that you do. Keep up the good work and keep the videos coming. One of the main problems we have here in the US is coyotes. Thank the Lord we have some skilled marksmen here who do a good job trying to keep them under control.

I would love to enjoy day after day of this. Quiet, calm and keeping the little ones safe.

Very impressive all round.... excellent video, thank you

You're an amazing sniper, sir! The size of the target and the distance you're shooting is extremely impressive!

At first I was curious why you were shooting Crowes than I saw a video on what they were doing to the Lambs. Keep up the good work!

I mean this is just absolutely incredible. Hitting a target like that from that far and with that amount of wind. Absolutely mind blowing. As stated many times before you sir are a true master!

I love pest control! Good for you! I have small sheep farm in New New Hampshire USA and I will protect my lambs from any predators..we have coydogs, Bobcats, bears, and hawks. Each little lamb is precious !

The comments say it all you are truly skilled at what you do wow very impressive

You are a sniper of the highest order. I'm from the U.S. and hunt big game animals such as deer and elk. I can hit those animals with lethality out to the distances you are shooting, but I'm not sure I could hit a Crow or Raven with any regularity. Well done!!

Perfectly clean shots. Bravo.

That man can dope wind like nobody's business. Phenomenal shooting.

I can't believe how good of a shot he is

The Sniper with his great friend 👋👋👉🇧🇷

Those crows are crafty bastards once they discover they are being stalked - nice work!

Great shooting on a splendid night. Thanks for the video.

The first shot was epic!

Respect, amazing marksmanship and discipline. You seem to be formally trained, ex military or law enforcement perhaps?

I didn't even know you could own suppressed long rifles in the UK. This is marvelous shooting!!!

these Videos of yours a brilliant. no ridiculous music, no relentless waffle. .A complete joy to watch, Your accuracy is phenomenal. I never imagined a Crow could be taken out from 550yds, FFS that's amazing. I would love to know more about your Guns and scopes and windage equipment, I find it all so interesting, and as I have mentioned in various other comments, your lab is just beautiful, Great Lifestyle you have. brilliant, well done.

What did the foxes think that they were hearing? The sound definitely got their attention.

Hey Simon, Lovely video, just the sound of the wind, and the occasional pop. The silence gives a sense of the peacefulness of the moor and also the stillness and concentration required to achieve your remarkable level of marksmanship. re: silence: please tell me about the suppressors you use.

Cracking shot- some of the most impressive marksmanship I’ve ever seen. Well done, sir- I salute you.

This kind of marksmanship absolutely blows my mind

Sure you're not a sniper? XD Pretty talented too, getting the heart of the foxes every time!

Great job matey!👍

Pest control is important and you are an amazing shot. What I don't understand is why the sheep are alone in the first place. Where I'm from sheep don't go anywhere except that they have at least one guy and three dogs with them at all times. No bird or anything else with bad intentions is ever getting close to them.

I had no idea Corvids caused this much harm to lambs, but knowing their intelligence it does not surprise me. This is a perfect example of predator control/ necessary culling carried out with the utmost professionalism so as to minimise suffering, thank you for sharing.
