Hi Stu, good to hear from you again. Your night vision scope works dam´d great and I wish I had one too. A little tip from hunter to another: buy or make a tripod, so you can take at long ball shoots, the hits better stable placed. ...............and if you like it, buy a semi-automatic gun, then u have even more shots at fleeing piggys are possible. ;--)) Greedings from the german pig hunter (GPH)

[@HuntingwithStu]

Hi mate, yes I will get a stick that I can rest the rifle on like a U top on it as I have to let go of the stick to work the bolt. That wouldn't be a prob if it was semi auto though.

[@daronkillins4832]

I love the 350 legend and also my 450 Bushmaster

[@HuntingwithStu]

Thanks mate, Actually the clip on night vision didn't work on my 30/06 as my mounts are low profile so this meant that the bolt would hit the clip on working the bolt. I gave it to my Nephew and he loves it on his 270.

Head mounts are way better as you don't get the arms swinging etc. Wit the Sony it give a first person shooter angle which is really cool.

Man, I really love hunting and pest control videos, but yours? The video quality and footage is nice, but your shooting sucks in two ways to my opinion: First, you don´t use shooting sticks even though you are not able to hold the gun steady. Result: Bad shot placement and some misses or wounded animals you will never get...Second, if you want to reduce pig problems, you should always start to shoot from little to big. In that way, you educate the older pigs to avoid farmland for feeding. The other way you create even more mess through a bunch of youngsters, running around without a social structure. Maybe you think about these things while having a cold beer to improve your skills. Greetings from Germany und good hunting!!

[@HuntingwithStu]

Thanks for the comments mate. Yes the thermal hunting is way different than running shots through the day and I do need a shooting stick. The thermal scope has a slight lag in the view so I have to get used to that as well. Have you watched other videos on my channel?

@@HuntingwithStu I watched a lot of your videos and usually like them very much. I respect your shooting skills with the 12 gauge und the 30-06...
