Elmer_Fudd 28 Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Hi all, after a break from marking some work and the little man, found this video; Rapid seven doing 30 FP. The main bit of interest is at 7.30 Approx? Gaz 1 Quote Link to post

davyt63 1,845 Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 hi yeah i see that! 30ft/lbs air rifle and he dont take it cleanly not good! if you see how he holds the rifle,he has bone on bone (elbow on knee) not a stable kneeling shot in my opinion,forearm on thigh much more stable but like he says! this happens in the field! 2 Quote Link to post
Tron 173 Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Thanks for the heads up Gaz, I enjoyed the vid, Cheers. Quote Link to post
Elmer_Fudd 28 Posted December 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 My main point was as Davey has seen, its an FAC and he is not seeming ovely competent with shit shooting (far from saying im any better or worse) and seems to not take advantage of such power. However, like he says these things happen out in the field from time to time. Gaz Quote Link to post
Mawders 595 Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Sorry but I totally disagree with these comments! If you watch all his vids you will see his shooting technique is good, think this is his first misplaced shot and he still had the balls to show it! That deserves respect. Most people vote in favour of heart and lung shots but as mentioned in other posts I feel squizers can be double hard! No it's not perfect but who does manage a perfect shot every time? Or at least leave it in the footage for educational purposes. Like he says, nobody wants to see their game suffer and he even says it left him not very happy with himself! I've had a few shots that left me feeling the same way! He's one of the best youtubers for our sport and I shall continue to support and watch his vids. We don't live in a perfect world, what's done is done! Opinions are like arseholes though, everyone has one, this is mine and not popping at anyone. ATB Mawders 7 Quote Link to post
Elmer_Fudd 28 Posted December 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Intention is not to say his bad just debate on a Monday night. This is all mate so no worries, I actually agree his videos aren't to bad after watching a few.y point was more him not using the full potential of his rifle being an FAC ... GAZ Quote Link to post
porkycrook 466 Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Everybody todays seems to record their shoots, then edit them. Well with the technology as it is now you have the chance to remove all of the missed shots and to make a nice frilly video, but he has left the missed shots in. It has happened to everyone of us that has shot at quarry, unexplained. We check our ammunition, pressure in the gun. We could go on checking everything, but we will have the occasional miss. Sorry but its part of shooting. 5 Quote Link to post
Elmer_Fudd 28 Posted December 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Ok I see that and your right everyone has had a missed shot ... Ita certainly good that hr cab leave shots in like that and remain objective. Like I did say I have seen his other stuff and looks pretty good to me. GAZ Quote Link to post
Roy Williamson 15 Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Fully agree that he has bottle to show his miss. The first shot seemed good and at 30ftlb would have thought it would have done the job. Just goes to shows it can go wrong at any time. Quote Link to post
