Ben is out with me tonight and we are running ‪@Thermalhunting955‬ gear. He is running the Storm S3 thermal sight and I am running the Leap L6. We also managed some Pocket K2 video as well.

I enjoyed the hunt and although we didn’t fill up the truck bed , I feel like we were successful. Also thanks for letting me use the S3 storm scope - it’s a pretty neat little unit. CSMF

[@gabem6362]

That's the biggest sounder in a long while .. keep on dropping those piggies 🎉

[@Daniel-wk5ib]

Inserting that brass catcher commercial for Ben was hilarious!

[@pigpoppertx6926]

I didn’t find all my brass :(

[@waynemccuen8213]

I love the "flipperrzzz".

[@ronsamborski6230]

Thumbs up as always. 👍🏼 Thanks for another pest control update. The flipping hog during the ending portion was quite impressive!

[@garygates5679]

BRAIN .. ALWAYS LOVE THESE VIDEOS ... !!!!!

[@TeufelHandlanger]

Maybe things could have worked out better in the first shoot, but as Ben said you "…got some pigs"! Nice going.

[@RanchTop]

Good video and nice footage.

[@CarpeSus]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@davemiller3027]

Thank you for doing a side by side of the L3 and Storm S3. I’m about to buy a new optic and very seriously think of an L3, but the Storm looks like a great option I need to look at.

[@pigpoppertx6926]

Brian was using an L6 on this hunt , so the S3 is 384 res and the L6 is 640 res

[@robw4ltz408]

Excellent vid guys

[@CarpeSus]

Thanks you!

[@vincei4252]

I have a big subwoofer and audio system attached to my PC so no need for headphones. The hogs being hit makes a nice resounding thunk each time.

[@CarpeSus]

Yeah, it just depends on your audio setup. I listen mostly with phones and hear everything very well, but when played on the computer, the thumps are not obviously and only so are obvious when played from my phone's speakers.

[@vincei4252]

@@CarpeSus Definitely! I listen to music by Deadmau5 and Rezz so need those low down notes. I happen to be one of those people that refuses to watch KZbin on my phone ...

[@martyn6792]

I have built in speakers in a 34" Samsung curved monitor, sound quality is good, I hear the hits

[@charlesmueller1119]

Another great video Brian , It's good to see the two scopes side by side ,Thanks for sharing .

[@patclark2186]

Outstanding hunt! And..interesting that you would differentiate between a ridge and a crest. Coupled with your terminology of "non diagnostic" last video. I think I see a pattern.

[@CarpeSus]

Words have meaning, but words have certain meanings to some and other meanings to others. So if I used one, somebody would tell me it was incorrect bast on geography, cultural geography, or geology, whatever area they know. It isn't a ridge in that it is high on two sides as it nearly levels at the top, like a creek bank leading up to level ground. Shooting over said ridge isn't a safety hazard in this case because we could see the land on the other side...is what I wanted to convey.

[@allenstephenson3554]

Cat's and bears cache food. Coyotes do not. You could have a mountain lion in the area.

[@vincei4252]

5 daylight hogs at Freddy's.

[@Threegunmaster]

It's a shame Hornady didn't come up with the 30AR if they had it would still be available

[@davemiller3027]

Brian, when you get a chance could you do a video on the mount on the Storm S3?

[@CarpeSus]

Sure. What do you need to know?

[@davemiller3027]

I'd like to see the mount? There's no info available but it's a picatinny mount? I'm curious how it'll mount on a bolt, if it'll set back far enough for a proper eye relief.

[@brianmoore1164]

I was wondering if you had tried the Lehigh Controlled Chaos bullets yet? It seems to be well thought of for anchoring hogs.

[@CarpeSus]

I was so blown away by the claims from the brass version that was such an abysmal failure that I haven't tried any other.

[@brianmoore1164]

@@CarpeSus Thank you. I am always curious about terminal ballistics.

[@CarpeSus]

@@brianmoore1164 They may be fine, but their brass version did not work as claimed.

[@bobstrauss9413]

Look at all those hogs ! You need to get to work !!!!

[@garrettgiddens2825]

Have you tried to use the Resolution Enhancement Technology feature on the Storm?

[@CarpeSus]

No. Only recently was I made aware of it. It is a new feature that apparently isn't present in the first run unit (prototype) I am running as far as I know, or isn't yet activated. It wasn't in the original manual, but is in the revised online manual, so no, haven't tried it out and so can't tell you about it. 😞

[@styger17]

If you could only get one would you choose the Storm or the leap?

[@cw2a]

🙏🙏🙏💪🏼👍🏼🤘🏼❤️‍🩹

[@petertilton8681]

You are aware what predator covers its meal for later right? Hmmmmm...

[@CarpeSus]

Yes, a whole bunch of the from foxes and bobcats to mountain lions and bears.
