Nate , As a hunter myself , I am always amazed at the accuracy of your running lead shots at so many distances . Good on ya man keep shootin !

[@EDGEoftheOUTBACK]

Thanks 👍

[@ServeNProtect]

What's the furthest distance you've ever taken down prey? I really admire hunters like Nate and you

[@triggersplace]

So used to seeing one-shot drops with your 308. Interesting how projectile speed, distance, and too hard a round changes everything. Great shoot.

[@EDGEoftheOUTBACK]

Yeah same, was very different indeed. Fortunately I could get back on target quickly.

[@bradwhite2287]

Brilliant stuff mate!! Nice to see a decent film bout control of feral animals and NO NEED TO SWEAR as shown by you … awesome 🎉

[@johnx9318]

I'd like to thank your patrons too. Skint old bloke - grateful to see this incredible work. Apologies for freeloading. Thanks.

You are an incredible marksman and conservationist. Thank you for looking after your piece of the world, and for such incredible footage of you and your mates doing what needs to be done. Inspirational mate. p.s. watching your channel is like Xmas everyday.

[@EDGEoftheOUTBACK]

Thanks for watching!

[@johnsaunders8315]

Really appreciate the difference in the lead times for the different rounds. You did super well to make the adjustment that quickly. Great vid. Keep them coming!

[@EDGEoftheOUTBACK]

Much appreciated!

[@huntsnewy]

Holy crap! You need that 300bo semi in every video!! That was insane!

[@eoinwestman6222]

Now that’s a decent session on the porkers. Even better to get a few deer. Some nice eating there. Well done Nathan and Bucket. Hope you guys had a great Christmas

[@MsJon52]

semi auto would be the way to go for me, love the traditional bolt action for single long shots, but your vid has convinced me of my belief of a quality semi auto in the right calibre is just the job, nice one.

[@darrenquinn8295]

[@jonbeecroft4912]

that just shows what and why you need a semi with better ammo as well great clip keep them coming

[@bluntobject4084]

As someone who doesn't shoot, but absolutely understands why it needs to happen. I really appreciate how you explain what is happening. I was starting to scratch my head with the way the rounds were 'missing' but as you explained they were hitting but not working as intended. I suspect an explanation video is upcoming? I still get shocked by the sheer volume of feral pigs/deer/ etc that are out there. Do you see many goats out your way as I have heard they're a problem in some area's too

[@ThePaulv12]

Your comment reminded me of something I read in a book about powerful rifles and what makes them powerful. In war, jacketed bullets are more likely to pass through personnel and are more likely to wound rather than kill. This isn't for humanitarian reasons, it's because a wounded soldier ties up 3 enemy soldiers vs 1 dead soldier. More efficient use of ammo in war. This was part of the reasoning for militaries' changing from WW2 era 7.62 to 5.56mm - a definite reduction in power. These pigs would probably die but they don't just stop immediately. As you said this could be an issue with the ammo.

[@kristiangustafson4130]

@@ThePaulv12 the reason we use FMJ ammunition isn't this (legendary) "ties up three not one" idea-- it is because the Hague and Geneva conventions banned expanding ammunition as it breeches the principle of "humanity" within the law of armed conflict (LOAC). Intentionally causing more suffering with expanding ammunition isn't sport.

Crying shame you have to justify the work you do...🤔😎🇦🇺👌

[@EDGEoftheOUTBACK]

I've been stung lately with a few demonetised videos, just trying to stem that with context for the reviewers 🤦‍♂️

[@davidxmcgrath]

Feral pigs are not typically considered a barrier species. Barrier species are those that, through their presence or absence, significantly affect the structure and function of ecosystems. They can act as barriers to the spread of invasive species, facilitate the spread of native species, or directly impact ecosystem processes. Feral pigs, on the other hand, are known to have destructive impacts on ecosystems. They are considered an invasive species in many regions and can cause significant damage to native plants, animals, and ecosystems. Their rooting and foraging behaviors can lead to soil erosion, damage to vegetation, and disruption of native habitats. While feral pigs can certainly alter ecosystems, their impact is generally considered detrimental rather than beneficial or neutral. Therefore, they are not typically classified as a barrier species.

[@davidxmcgrath]

I'm saying this as I hope others can learn that the work you do, is actually protecting ecosystems. Keep up the good work.

[@paulreid2223]

Just jaw-dropping the numbers that are out there mate .... always great to see you getting amongst 'em , even if the 300 was a bit shy on killing power with some !!!

[@davidpaylor5666]

Some cracking pest control there. Some of those running shots are world class, very tidy and humane..

[@EDGEoftheOUTBACK]

Cheers 🍺

[@jonathanbrocklehurst6724]

That blackout looks like a great caliber for semiautomatic use. Quick acquisition follow up shots.

[@martinfahrni5677]

Good job, Watching you adjust your shooting style to this ammo was a learning experience, thank you sir ❤

[@brucemoller7012]

Love the canon you’re using today. Saves the time between shots.

[@sirskidney7998]

Thanks for another great video, Nathan. Compared to your .308 you will have to convince me further that the Blackout is a suitable calibre for this style of shoot. Keep up the great work.

[@EDGEoftheOUTBACK]

The calibre will never be a 308Win. But it's suitable so long as you don't expect 200m plus kills. The issue in this instance was the ammo not expanding.

[@Peter-jo3sc]

Great content, great marksmanship! I ve found the Sig 120 grn elites do the trick . Copper is king with the 300 BO . None the less thanks for all you do . Happy Holidays .

[@EDGEoftheOUTBACK]

I'd have loved to run other ammo, it's just hard to source at the current time unfortunately. My mate loves running 110 VMaxs.

[@NZHardhouser]

Another outstanding outing and results. Congrats on the Semi !

[@EDGEoftheOUTBACK]

Thank you very much!

Nice work Nathan, lots of piggy pancakes taking a dirt sample. I find 115g in the 300 works great for me, stay safe over the break.

[@edwardh1591]

Should be getting 15-1600 FPS out of that factory cartridge. Used to load a bunch of these. I have went to the 300 hammer now. The 300 blackout lacks in range and power to expand bullets unless you use a 110 or a 125 grain bullet. Still a great video. Keep up the good work.

[@donwyoming1936]

I remember when the 300 Blackout was called the 300 Whisper. Back before, it was tweeked to fit in AR magazines and magically renamed the Blackout, as if it was something new. I used the Whisper in a suppressed, short action HOWA 1500. Pigs & deer did not keep going when whacked by 220gr hollow points. 🤠

[@EDGEoftheOUTBACK]

Yeah the subsonic ammo is much better suited to projectiles which expand.

[@404nitro]

Awesome as always! Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year to you and your family bro.

[@EDGEoftheOUTBACK]

Thanks! You too!

[@steverohde1917]

Always wondered about the blackout. Was thinking would be a nice rifle for my daughter, but after seeing this, I'm definitely going to give it a miss. Love the show mate.

[@EDGEoftheOUTBACK]

I wouldn't rule out the cartridge off this. Just crap ammo.

[@Poisonslinger]

Might take a look at Black Butterfly Ammo for Sub/Super deer (and whatever else) hunting. The cartridge works - but for good kills, you really need appropriate ammo in this caliber.

[@michaelfregoe5875]

I had a very similar experience with those projectiles but in 7.62x39. They behaved just like a FMJ. Whatever the reason was, IDK. I used the remainder of the box for plinking and not hunting. It's nice seeing you using a SA.

[@EDGEoftheOUTBACK]

Yeah would be similar speeds in that cartridge too. I'm getting a fair few comments of people really not liking them 😞
