Shooting Pigs Cats & Foxes || Invasive Species Control || 308 Winchester || Thermion 2 XP50 Hunting

Big boars were out and about on this ATV shooting / hunting trip. Also a bunch of foxes and some feral cats !!! I managed to smackdown a healthy tally of feral animals with my 308 Winchester and Thermion 2 XP50 scope. No doubt that rig is more than up to the task and it serves its role well on the larger pigs I pegged with it. The smaller animals, well you can't argue overkill is not ethical !!!
All the animals shot in the video are introduced, invasive feral species in Australia. These animals are being culled for pest control purposes. Whilst this is labelled a hunting video a lot of this footage is purely pest control shooting. There is no "fair chase" other than shooting straight and true resulting in the most ethical kills possible. I'm performing this role with professional equipment for property owners who grant me access and require assistance.

For those interested I'm shooting a Ruger American Predator 18" chambered in 308 Winchester. Fitted into a MDT Gen 2 LSS chassis and running reloads with 150 grain Hornady SST projectiles. My scope is a Pulsar Thermion 2 XP50.

As an American viewer, the shooting of the feral cats is shocking, but you seem to be one of the few channels willing to show it. That's why you got my sub. Thanks for all the great content. 👍 wish I could come lend a hand.

Thanks for the comment mate. Unfortunately in Australia feral cats are probably the worst invasive animal. We'll, there's a lot of different animals that are an issue but cats and foxes are directly linked to many extinctions if you google it. A hard thing for many to grasp and I appreciate you taking a stance based on ecology not opinion 👌

Me and my mate do a fair bit of pest control here in the UK. In one area we have permission too shoot on all the farms except one. They like the lovely fluffy foxes or rather they did until they started killing their hens. Now they very much want us to "control" them. Love the video's mate ignore the snowflakes (I'm sure you do) . The haters aren't living in the real world. Keep on doing what you do.

I'm from the country so I understand the importance of preserving our environment with minimal impact from agriculture/beef/dairy & the like; plus living near a dairy farm I often hear gun fire at night during calving season as wild dogs, pigs will kill the calf while it being born or there after. P.S I love Venison and wild pig smoked sausages yum.

@@EDGEoftheOUTBACK Ah. Ok.. I thought perhaps you tried to lift the bolt an extra time or 2 to reset the firing pin/ trigger group for another strike on the primer. No worries... Was it a short-stroke, or did your next cartridge hang-up in the mag ? You can get a little of the ceramic coating/ graphene coating that you use on car exteriors, and coat the inside of your mags to make them super slick so they don't have as much friction.

I'm not sure. Could have short stroked. It all happened pretty quickly and I didn't ponder it too much.

.308 vs small invasive critter = win for the native wildlife. Very humane kill with a pink mist show.

Reckon you need to convene a committee to examine the cause and appropriate response to the melted white Twix.

National Geographic Channel needs programs along these lines. Putting a focus on the damage that feral invasive species have done and continue to do, and why they need to be removed. In Australia, the U.K. , the U.S., wherever they’re present.

To get all that in 1 night is impressive must be an awesome block. I Just got back from a paid block, 5 guys with about 30k in thermal gear between us, hunted all night for 3 nights at $90 pp per night and the tally was 1 pig 😂 not 1 fox or deer seen

Yeah a lot of paid places get hammered. Plenty of pressure in this location too but I mix it up a bit with a quiet quad and a bit of on foot work. I also get off the beaten tracks where possible.
