This 10 minute hunting video has some good squirrel shooting footage on it, but watching it made me cringe. From the looks of it, and the sound of it, they are using a .22 long rifle and an AR-15 in .223. BUT, they are doing quite a few things that are really unsafe, as well as indiscriminately shooting things other than squirrels.

The main problem I have with their shooting is that they don’t make sure of their backstop before taking the shot. They take shots at squirrels that are in front of Cows, Houses, Tractors, Roads, Sprinkler Pipes and more.

They are also shooting birds. While you can get a hunting license to shoot some birds, LBB’s (little brown birds) and Magpies aren’t included in that list. (As a matter of fact, last time I checked, it was illegal to shoot Magpies in Oregon, and the video looks like it was shot in Central Oregon. But, I’ve been wrong before.)

Oh Yea! This is a great piece of footage. LOL
If you’ve ever wanted to see a squirrel shot out of a canon, this is what it would look like.

Here is the video that I shot yesterday of the Verminator ridding the world of vermin (hence the name). We were in a little valley about 6 miles from Unity, Oregon. The wind was blowing pretty good, as you can see by the video, but it didn’t seem affect the .204 that the Verminator was shooting. The only shot I saw him miss was at a squirrel around 400 yards away with a 20+ mph cross wind; maybe I should let him be the Squirrel Sniper.

I personally think the video rocks and should be sent to schools for kids to learn the proper disposal method for ground squirrels, but I’m sure someone would take umbridge and I would end up in the local news looking like some kind of wack job… Again. LOL

Here is the video of the sage rat count at the shoot in Unity, Oregon over the weekend. From what I understand, I only accounted for 35 dead rats; not very good at all. But, my 6X18X50mm Bushnell scope combined with my new Savage .17HMR did pretty good considering the conditions we had to work with.

The field that we drew was outside Ironside, Oregon, and there couldn’t have been more than 200 ground squirrels spread out over an area somewhere around 320 to 640 acres. The squirrels had been so shot up that you were lucky if you could get within 100 yards of them. I had 3 shots under 50 yards, with most shots being between 100 and 150 yards. (more…)

Squirrel hunting at it’s finest… well, sort of, if you maybe had some glasses. (more…)

I sent my brother-in-law (Not the Verminator, one of the other ones!) Out to get me some squirrel hunting videos. After using up 2 DVD’s, this is what he came back with. (more…)

I just can’t figure out to get the videos posted. I can’t put them on a mainstream site like youtube, because they will toss me for TOS violations. does anyone know where I can post squirrel hunting and shooting videos?
