Maggie is a outstanding shooter almost every one of her kills are head or neck shots unbelievable Maggie.

[@maggievorster5877]

Thank you very much, the FX Panthera made it easy 😉👍

[@sdeek200]

​@@maggievorster5877 How much does it cost with complete equipment in dollars?

[@surreallife777]

I put an order in for a 600 mm 22 caliber. If you add to 300 CC bottle is it too heavy to hand-hold? I think you have a 500 CC bottle how do you find it with hand holding? I think it's over 10 lb once you add the scope

[@davidlynch4437]

The pellets do that on my setup I found that the odd pellet due to the shape gets cut well going over transfer port. It makes the loop that way. Good shooting anyway

[@erikdc6581]

Maggie is a natural head hunter. Great job guys as always. Cheers! from California

Greetings, Roelf & Maggie...you both are an excellent team doing pest control. I still have an FX Impact Mk1 used for Iguana and pest control (invasive species) Eradication here in Puerto Rico and shooting H&N Slugs .218, 21gr at 875fps and they are doing some serious damage. I enjoy watching you both working together during your videos and having fun. Take care of yourselves and happy hunting!

[@surreallife777]

@albertopapi619 I just purchased an fx panthera 600 mm 22 caliber. On the spec sheet it says if you're shooting 22 caliber slugs, 22 grain, 600 mm Barrel you're going to get 80 to 90 shots what's a 300 CC bottle. Some people don't believe this including myself what do you think? Hopefully it's not false advertising because I ordered it.

[@tonyv8925]

Thank you for sharing this video. Looks like you will be at this farm for awhile, overwhelmed with targets. Good shooting.

[@eddiecahall3824]

Ya, I love this absolutely! I know H&N pellets especially the baracuda work very well. They make them in 4 different sizes in the calibur. You have to see which one fits ur barrel and shoots accurately.After that,they're lights out! I've used them for many many years. I know pellets work even at longer ranges. The airgunnarz world used this stuff way before slugz were tested and even in competition shooting. It's what air rifles were originally made to shoot! I've done this over 40 yrs in my pest control/ hobby. Absolutely love the truth about this! Not hyped up to sell anything. Nice shooting people's, super Sikk! Maggie is truly amazing!!! Pretty cool to see a lady hanging in there too. Hey, sta slingin that sweet air rifle lead! Ed snipper man 💥👇💪💪💪😱😱😱💯

[@maggievorster5877]

Thank you very much. Wow, that's a lot of great years of shooting and experience, good to hear. Happy hunting 👍

[@mikefoor5162]

Awesome side JOB to have I'm sure the farmers appreciate it.

[@brianfurth2839]

Rolf luv your videos their just great,Maggie is a top shot too.. keep them coming! could you help please...Just bought a Panthera Hunter Compact and want to put the 30cc bottle at the back and a 480cc at the front ..what adaptors do I need as I heard the rear is different..many thanks Brian

[@surreallife777]

@@brianfurth2839 I just purchased the same gun 600 mm 22 caliber. Sabre tactical has a new one where you don't have to remove the Tactical on your barrel. What's the other adapters you need to remove it it won't fit.

[@varmintknockers]

Lot's of excellent shooting here , like the ones that hang after being hit .

[@lovehuntings]

the accuracy is beyond doubt the video is also very clear

[@ctgeorgia]

Great shooting! Must be a tough area though... Spiked steel fence covered with razor wire!

[@Enoch940]

All farms are tough in South Africa. White farmers are being murdered in huge numbers. Polititians encourage it.

[@josefernandogonzalezrodrig4405]

Cómo siempre un gran video 👍, ya que en España no me dejan cazar con armas de aire Co2, resorte, Nitropiston,PcP pues a disfrutar de vuestros videos con el control de plagas, saludos desde España 🇪🇸💯

[@MikeTrizzle]

I’m getting almost 4 mags out of my panthera 500 .25 with fx pellets 25.4g @ 105 bar 5 on the power wheel and about 2.3 on the micro meter and 865fps. All on the stock single Bottle

[@surreallife777]

@MikeTrizzle @albertopapi619 Have you tried slugs? I just purchased an fx panthera 600 mm 22 caliber. On the spec sheet it says if you're shooting 22 caliber slugs, 22 grain, 600 mm Barrel you're going to get 80 to 90 shots what's a 300 CC bottle.

[@elcristiano22]

it's always nice to go back in time and remember your background

[@cyril3064]

Good morning can you make a video with the panthera hunter 6.35 to see the settings and what pellets to put in it, please thank you 🙏🙏

[@stinkyping]

Another great video! Can you please tell us what your foverite bag is and why?

[@rdangc4419]

Awesome shooting guys, love those head shots

[@WendiAtiq]

How long is this barrel?

[@brettellis1837]

Off the chart un real shooting ripper content.

[@BobbyFowlerJr]

How do you know how far the distance is. What rangefinder do you use. Also how do you do this? Do you range the distance with the rangefinder and then dial the range turret? What scope is the best? MOA or mil rad? Thank you for the info.

[@evincergameplay]

How many shots does that dual 800cc bottle give? Details will be really appreciated. And the best settings for the regulator pressure to shoot 25 grain slugs.

[@JAWAUKLIK]

Amazing bro, the accuracy is very surprising

[@paulojrr1]

First of all beautiful place. Congratulations to the beautiful couple Roelf and Maggie Vorster always together. My dream is to have an Fx impact. Are these doves delicious?

[@OH8STN]

Maggie is the headshot Queen! How difficult was it to swap out the Pantgera barrel? Pure Awesomeness as always. Thanks for sharing.

[@kevinatkins6235]

Another Great Vid. Keep them coming.

[@franciscocarvalho2424]

Equipment show in this configuration was top without a doubt no.177 would be show also like guaranteed always fan 🇧🇷

Barrel twist rate ? Superior Heavy Liner or Superior/Pellets Liner ? Comrade

I think you and your beautiful wife are the best shooters on KZbin and have the most exciting content buddy.

[@maggievorster5877]

Thank you for the support 🤗

[@FBR1]

Like always amazing shot. both of you

[@qingyuhu]

Awesome video again!!!

[@harleyhall4485]

Panthera hunter or a panthera with custom short barrel?

[@WLKRja22I.C.B.M53]

Robicie dobrą robotę 👍👏 Pozdrowienia z Polski 🤝 🇵🇱 Uwielbiam wasze filmy .

[@aguzzshooter]

Salam dari indonesia kawan

[@danv9113]

The fps is on the sweet spot, but maybe 140 bar on the reg is too much for the pellets causing spiraling?? Great video again, you guys are great!

[@AirTacHunting]

No, I tested the setup with JSB pellets and had no spirals. Also at 140 bar.

[@patrickbyr]

Fun one to watch. Loving the Panthera Hunter.

[@vuemoua3104]

Can we see your tune for this fx panther compact

[@Vkz222]

If u would choose sir roelf, for walk and stalk. Wildcat mk3 bt compact or panthera 500mm?

[@AirTacHunting]

Wildcat, it is made for that.

[@singleken77]

the spiraling was probaly the pellets ! I have gone to using only jsb I try others but always end up with them

[@Duane002]

You guys should be eating those doves! They are quite tasty!!

[@iguerohunter]

Air tact hunting pest control is very good with panthera.

[@sparepart5907]

So the liner 230mm it you cut it or it come from factory, because i have to get liner shorter only 300mm

[@qbert22]

Is this 0.177 caliber?

[@michaelb.42112]

I'm SURE other people have the same question ; Does adding the extra bottle add more horsepower or just mileage ?

[@kims2r]

You get more shots but the power solely depends on the tune, doesn’t depend on the amount of available air.

What size barrel? It looks more compact than he 500mm

[@lv2bplayn]

He stated during the walkthrough at 8:27 that it is 230mm barrel.

[@maggievorster5877]

Yes, it's 230mm

[@DeReK-og4om]

Bonjour, j'ai regardé beaucoup de vidéo sur ta chaîne et j'ai constaté que les pellets jsb 18.13gr sont tiré à 880 fps avec n'importe quel configuration. Et telle la vitesse idéal pour le max de précision ? Merci

[@jmcalitz3407]

Awesome video. Wish I could've joined on this hunt. Lots of opportunities 😁 Great shooting as always, guys.

Betul banget kawan, saya juga pengen bergabung, tapi,,,, jauh banget dari indonesia

Thank you, happy hunting in Egypt 👍

[@chrisfigueroa3361]

Awesome video I like that set up better then the Musket they sale ...like you said it's for hunting and I like it better 😏 thanks for sharing bsafe guys 👍

[@chipsammich2078]

I shot a sparrow yesterday with my 22 impact (slugs) at just under 100 yrds.. Completely and cleanly separated the bird into 2 piece at the chest.. It was awesome just rhe head and wings lol And why do farms use razor wire there? Keep prisoners in or out lol

[@maggievorster5877]

Oh well done! The wires and fences are needed to keep the live stock alive. Here's unfortunately a lot of theft.

[@sniperkota]

Ekstrim best video best weapon 😍

[@bukawhunter1565]

Gud day from Philippines were did you buy FX AM INTERESTED

[@supergreatairgunreviews]

Nice to see you slinging those 21 grain Barracudas out there. Don't see a lot of people using them. I use them sometimes in my Barra 1100z

[@hydersheikh5455]

Bro, what is the price of this gun

[@josephmutambirwa8469]

Hi just a quick one. Can you shoot slugs out of that barrel (230mm) Joseph in Johannesburg

[@AirTacHunting]

You can, it is just vry difficult to stabilize slugs in such a short barrel. You need a very fast twist rate.

[@josephmutambirwa8469]

​@@AirTacHuntingthanks a lot for the response . I have an FX Crown Mk2.22 can I get a 400mm slug liner for it?

[@vaidasstucinskas7876]

Hello, I want to ask where you can get such a rifle and what is its price

[@ronnieumberger]

Great video as always ! What length barrel is on it ?

[@zaegonz111]

Very nice shooting! I have the 500mm panthera and I'm very interested in a shorter barrel for hunting iguanas in the woods out here in P. R How can I get my hands on one?

[@AirTacHunting]

Coming soon.

[@dodongaviso3104]

How much is the cost of FX pantera air gun?

[@clfsti]

Do you always use ffp when hunting ?

[@AirTacHunting]

Pretty much.

[@TheTobbson]

great video as usual 🤘

[@sniperdovoo]

carabina top meu amigo pena que só posso olhar e não ter uma dessas

[@blazerNH]

no brasil se matar uma pombinha o cara vai preso.

[@kapampanganvlog6759]

Nice shots very accurate

[@THEcombatXD]

That's an weird wobbling from such an good pellet . haven't seem this wobbling on my Hatsan Flashpup .22 running about 900fps , Mabey you got sone bad pellets from the factory in there

[@starlightHT]

The 21 grain barracuda pellets also don't work very well in my various 8 liners... I never had any problems with the slugs. I've had a box for about 3 years and it looks like it will last for many years.

[@lionelbennett4991]

I’m the opposite, hell’s own trouble with slugs but with 21 gn pellets 5 shots thru the one hole at 50m. Fx crown.

[@istanahunter2111]

Luar biasa ini shot burungnya..matap betul unitnya

[@sdeek200]

How much is the full price with the accessories in dollars, and can I get it? I am from Iraq and I hope that it will reach me

[@raymondaguirre5825]

I found out if you shoot a squirrel & leave it out out they tend to come out & cannibalize on the dead & you get alot of follow up shots. But the squirrels in California are a bit crazy just like are state. 😢

[@maggievorster5877]

Yes, they do it, they usually drag the dead back to the burrows and you don't get time to retrieve it. I think this time, it was too much in the open and they were well fed, heavy to carry.

[@safeasmush]

88 meters,,that's incredible

[@InWithBothFeet]

What's all the razor wire for?

[@maggievorster5877]

It's needed to safeguard your property and livestock, theft is very high.

[@JorgeSantos-vd7wd]

Qual luneta vc esta usando amigo

[@lasheray]

What is the razor wire for around your property?

[@JoséRaimundoSilvadasilva]

Top de mais Qual e preção de trabalho dessa carabina ??

[@AirTacHunting]

Depends on your local supplier.

[@HaiderKhan-yb1cz]

Wht will be the price of this 250 mm linear

[@Nuke_2002]

Any links for the gun and scope gear and stuff boet👌

[@justinconley7978]

Awesome video

[@Rafflesiasniper]

panthera fx accuracy is very good

[@METEORA_47]

is it surrounded barrel?

[@willisilvadosreis3819]

what a beautiful rifle here in Brazil it is very expensive 

[@surreallife777]

@willisilvadosreis3819 my friend in South Africa is an engineer and machinist. He has a snow peak m60b and the internals are almost identical to an fx impact. Accuracy is excellent. He did some modifications to the gun. If you can afford an fx impact look into the MB 60 or the new Max 1. The max one is going to be one of the most powerful air guns out there for the price.

[@temjenyangerjamir9238]

After shooting all those tasty birds u guys used to eat or ??

good day sir hunter din kami dito sa philipines , pero gamit namin co2 parin. baka may luma kayong hinde na ginagamitalang good day sir we are also hunters here in the philippines, but we still use co2. maybe you have an old one that is not used for me sir please 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
