I see a certain youtube channel are still promoting long range vermin shots. 75 yards ! Not my idea of selling the sport of airgunning.

Agreed I get some people can shoot that distance but why not stalk in closer and test your skills that’s way too

With sub-12 rifles? I don't 'get' that at all, mainly because I've never met anyone who can do it under field conditions to the standard hunting requires.

I'm always up for re-education, mind, so if anyone knows anyone who can do it, please put them in touch and I'll gladly learn and apologise.

Go for it mate, we need to show people that we are not all idiots, showing stuff like that does us no favours. Rog

If it’s the YouTube video I just searched, then also shooting over a public footpath.

Yes, shooting near the footpath. I cannot say if he was unsighted to anybody walking, rather difficult to say. Definitely don`t think much to 75 yard shooting, and if you noticed he did not show the shot bird on video as he did the others.

There's one there at 69m at 4.55 in.

He does advise checking zero because a 40 minute car journey can make it go off with the road vibration.
