Busting out the Bullpups | Dassie Hunting with the Maverick & Impact (filmed at 1000 frames/sec!)

[@BWGPEI]

You guys are beyond good - fantastic camera and editing work, and master-class shooting. Many thanks for sharing your days.

[@samuelmyers3102]

Those scope shots are amazing. I couldn't be more exited when your video popped up in my notifications. Keep up the good work.

[@ryanthurman92]

Your videos are the only ones I jump to watch the moment I see them available.

[@dennislawson8352]

Call it the “Dassie community Impact Project” because you’re seriously impacting the dassie community

[@air-huntergerhard4ever]

Loved your version of the video bud! Was epic! 😎👍🏻

[@richardaustinaustin1890]

The shock wave travelling down the body of the dussies is amazing, and the sound of the impact! Wow

[@alexandremaciel8072]

That 1000 fps footage clearly shows the amount of energy transferred to the animal at impact, even from a relatively long distance... combine with your professional shot placements, it's definitely a clean and ethical kill

[@SheepDogActual]

Another great video Matt. You two work well together. Congratulations on the first kill with the Maverick. Thanks for the adventure.

[@vernontattersall1398]

Beautiful country,great video guys thank you and thank you FX for the almighty maverick

[@kiweekeith]

Thanks a Stack Guys, so great to see The Two of you together. Stunning Scenery, Brilliant footage and Commentary. Mooi Bly, Groete uit New Zealand

[@urbanhunter001]

Listen. I'm sold fellas. I've been dodging the high-end air rifle market for years but you guys prove the Impact platform day in and day out. Now off to rehearse my speech to the wife 😂

[@tembakberdiri177]

Wife's impact?! 😀

[@scottmichael3745]

I sold a .357 magnum and a 15HP outboard and still saved for another 6 months to afford my Maverick sniper 700mm. Don't regret it a bit! I LOVE my Maverick 22 sniper!

[@kyle1988porter]

How did the speech go mate? 1 year on I'm keen to know if it worked (or if your still alive after it)

[@donaldlundy345]

Excellent video Matt and Gerhard and spot on shooting the Dussie's didn't stand a chance. I would call it " Road to the Dussie's "

[@garywallen5538]

Hi Matt and Gerhard from us in England love your video/blog this should be called " Dassie Heaven " . Because that's where you keep putting them.

[@biagiocozza8875]

Great video guys. Love the new Maverick it looks like a dassie killer.

[@nyodine]

Hi guys, could you please let me know where to get those small colourful stickers used in the scope turrets to assist with marking set distance...? Cheers George

[@jakejackson8739]

Yet again another great video love from zimbabwe

[@900Redshark]

So if the .22 MK3 can hit like that with slugs especially at 144 yards on a good size critter. Are there any real added benefits to getting a MK3 in .25?

[@fishing4happiness610]

Your vids always brighten me day. It's NatGeo and Meat Eater combined!

[@alastair9894]

Hi Matt. I'm a bit confused about your advice on the 26 gn Javelins in the Maverick. When you target tested them, you said no more than 75 yds but your mate was hitting with deadly accuracy at vastly greater ranges. Please advise.

[@ricardogcontreras2320]

Fantastics!! You WakeUp me to peack my rifle and go to start my own adventure. Thanks a lot for that guys!

[@260rips]

Yes! 💪🏻dassies!! Great video and lovely footage 😉

[@HumbertoClaudino]

It would be possible to comment on the use of .22 caliber slugs (217) and .22 caliber slugs (218). Thank you so much

[@roderickthomas3417]

Hello Sir, good morning. Great shooting! Hey I’m about to purchase a FX IMPACT Maverick.. I have a few question(since you’re an owner)! If I purchase the fx impact maverick in .25 cal and if I want to shoot the same rifle in .22 caliber. Do I purchase another barrel or do I just get a barrel liner ? Also is the power band for the .30 cal(7.62) the same power equipment for the .25 or is it a bigger tank involved and how big of a air tank can one purchase for the fx impact maverick

[@fgrobler1342]

As it took first-blood there!

[@FB-pk9ob]

Great video! But your steering wheel is on the wrong side of the truck. Fascinating!!!

[@geojohnson5613]

Thank you Matt, and Gerhard, for another awesome pesting video. Excellent slow motion shots as well, very nice and clear. Those javelin slugs are hitting with authority. 👍👍👍 Geo from Kalamazoo, MI USA

[@leeking339]

I love the dassie dusting vids, brilliant as always 👍

[@lindso6105]

nocking the stuffing out of dassies is fun ,awsome slow mo

[@uantedatamo9879]

dussy domain/valley is the first that springs to mind.

[@xnorcal831x]

Dang the difference between slugs and pellets is huge. Those slugs just flat out work and work well. Great job guys

[@deadahead8701]

Beautiful country, I live in the city I’ve had to wait half hour just for a booth at the shooting range.

[@adeodozo7368]

It's a joy to watch your videos.

[@LITTLEROCK2517]

Not funny

[@supernovansknalpotjaya7864]

I'm from Indonesia I like to see your video sir there are lots of the best spots to hunt. very cool in that place

[@timkaldahl]

I'm curious about the quilted jacket you are wearing in the morning. The only time I've left North America was to teach in the Caroline Islands, so when I see banana plants in the background I don't associate it with temperatures low enough to need an outer layer. On the other hand, the local islanders would put on heavy coats when it rained and the temps dropped into the high seventies. I'm from northern Minnesota though, and I wilt when the temps get past 80. (All temps in Fahrenheit, Apologies to the rest of the world.) some day I will make it to the African continent and visit as many countries as I can. The world is an amazing place.

[@joshturner9766]

some of us are built different bro, in england because we are a multicultral race ull see half of us in shorts and vests and the other half in jumpers and coats

[@lbtn1]

Those Javelin slugs made from a Corbin die too?

[@irshadrind5965]

Nice camera work I like it keep going bro

[@yamahabigwedgy]

Dassie paradise

[@charleswalter2902]

What is a Dassie & why are they being shot? Please understand, I'm a hunter, control measures don't bother me. It's just a simple question.

[@scottmichael3745]

Rodents and it is pest control.

[@yunuskhan0929]

Well I am very exited to see Dassie hunt with fx impact m3💥🤘

[@markalexander5124]

Makes me wonder why anybody would be excited about shooting an animal that is inedible and then not even bother to go and collect the pelt.

[@kr6dr]

@@markalexander5124 the animals are edible. The farm workers eat them.

[@kauabarros9638]

12:35 . Ok you convinced me I’m ordering all the javelins I can rn 🫡😂☠️🤘🏽👌🏾

[@brettsample1786]

I just purchased an FX impact .357. It shoots 81 grain JSB pellets extremely well. And of course the FX 81 grain pellets as well. I picked up some NSA .93 grain hollowpoint slugs. I’m having some accuracy issues. Do you have any tips? And do you have any idea when we might see the FX hybrid in a .357? Do I need a different liner to shoot slugs? Or will the liner that came with it work OK if I tune the gun properly?

[@Davood115]

Love your vids Matt

[@msindisiwillem8731]

Enjoying your content mate,bt I've got a question not related to the video thought jst wanna know wether can weight of a pellet differ if I'm using a mold at home,I've been trying to make my own pellets,I'm struggling to get different weights on the same calibre

[@randyperkins5063]

Awesome stuff guys keep it coming please and thank you!

[@raphsissou]

Can you make a hunting video with the Air Venturi Avenger .22 ?

[@ianfoofromguyana3942]

Have you consider less heavier slugs. Is the 26 grain the minimum?

[@tyroneclarke1666]

“Dassie Canyon”. Very nice footage. Like the slo mos. cheers 🇦🇺

Looks very beautiful there

[@snipersumatravlog]

Yes

[@ekopurwanto615]

Good shoot..salute from indonesian air gun comunity.

[@reiben2356]

Do they do something with the animals afterwards? Eating them retrieve the corps and burning them? Or do they just let them decompose? I'm not familiar with pest control

[@joshturner9766]

hes stated on other videos he collects them and feeds the farm workers.. never made a video on it tho so i couldnt say for certain

[@markpaulandam8302]

i am so jealous of your wonderful feelings during the shooting...i love it really...unfortunately, FX air rifles are very rare here in the Philippines...

Excellent shooter love you shots

[@thaovang8150]

The gun is so beautiful

[@colinrecardo6452]

Is that a 600mm or 700mm barrel on your maverick.

Молодцы мужики!!!!

[@zandrymyburgh1734]

Do you have a vidio of the p15 shioting dasies or ather varments

[@CRA677]

Would I be correct that a FX for a leftie shooter would be a no-go due to the magazine placement?

[@ghostranger169]

Great shooting, Matt and Gerhard! Nice "pretzel" position with feet up shooting out of the truck, Matt! Maybe call the spot Hyrax High Rocks? Cheers

[@JJaailson]

Which is the best Maverick or Impact?

[@Visionary-fw6be]

what would you say is the best first pcp with the introduction of the umarex gauntlet 2

[@CharlieTalmadge]

Matt, so what's the setup on your FX? I'm shooting a Uragan 25 King right now..love it, but it's more of a bench gun. I want to upgrade and get a FX, something lighter. Right now I'm shooting 31gr slugs at around 900fps and 55ft/lbs. I wanna get up into the 70-80 ft lb range. Would love to know the setup of your gun and put something together like it. I'm in the states. Thnaks!

[@muhammadfirmansyah9882]

Nice accuracy👍from Indonesian 🇲🇨

[@Simon_Nonymous]

Good shooting - every shot well placed. Are Dassies shot for food or for pest control? Sorry if Ive missed an explanation in an earlier video.

What is a dassie and what’s the reason for shooting them?

Where are you guys located in SA ?

I can’t find a Maverick or impact in stock anywhere :(

Whats day price of fx impact in US..

Great video. Shooting is incredible!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍 I would like to see more little critters taken out of the eco system.

[@FollowingGhost]

Good shooting as always guys. I just shot a short video of the new guns we are running this year, the M3 Impact Sniper in .25, Maverick Compact in .22 and a Dreamtac in .25. If you have a second I do have one question, is Gerhard running a slug kit in the Maverick? Thanks guys keep them coming.
