[@theshootingshow]

+Martin Emilio Thanks Martin.

[@sorryofficer1]

Love the show, but I’ve a question. What do you do with your quarry at the end of the day? Thanks.

[@gallopingg1]

BRILLIANT MAT.

[@Frank-uf2vn]

I put a UTG Bugbuster ($85) on my Gamo Hornet Maxxim 22 and in only 250 shots it wont hold zero anymore and I cant even get the scope to adjust up far enough with the elevation knob now?...screw UTG, all the extras that don't matter and no quality! I'm going to buy A Hawk Vantage model, just not sure what one yet...looking on amazon, will order one tomorrow !

[@Fergesslich]

Good and entertaining video!

[@phlopalopagus]

I hope to he your eating those wonderful squirrels. I live in the Rockies now and Im not even sure there are any up here. I sure miss squirrels and morel mushrooms from the Midwest.

[@colincaddick3727]

Great vids

[@BenTHerLiG]

Hey Mat, Great show! I was wondering where you have bought that nice beanbag :) Is it from Jack Pyke?

[@theshootingshow]

+Andreas Rasmussen Hi Andreas. Bough the camo bean bag several years ago, and struggling to find a new camo one to replace it. Would like to hear from anyone who can track one down. All the best, Mat

[@iancooper9068]

great vids too keep up good work.

[@deanmorriss7184]

Great show matt , any chance of more rabbit vids?

[@theshootingshow]

+Dean Morriss Thanks Dean. Certainly - we'll do some more as soon as the opportunity arises. Mat

[@ryanmaynard256]

where are you shooting I am having trouble finding somewhere to shoot

[@conryan169]

What sling are you using on the Air Arms.

[@theshootingshow]

+Con Ryan Hi Con. It's a Padded Super Sling from Deben.

[@adventuresofjake2553]

what do you do with the squirrels when finish

[@theshootingshow]

+Jake Ingleby Hi Jake. Some end up on the table, and others go to friends who keep ferrets. The tails go to friends who use the fibres to tie fly-fishing hooks. All the best, Mat.

[@adventuresofjake2553]

Oh right thanks for the reply

[@elcompamartinez2647]

feed the dogs like i do

[@OllyKilo]

What would happen if you fired an air gun underwater?

[@xIRATUMx]

Brown jacket in bright green environment lol

[@regsparkes6507]

+xIRATUMx Well one man's view is another's invisibility,....or something like that,..You know, I didn't see Matt for a moment as he sat by that tree. I did when he moved the rifle. I guess my 'old' eyes aren't as sharp as they used to be. I'm glad I'm not a Gray squirrel with Matt's shooting prowess. Nice show Matt, thanks for this,...see you soon,....or not !!

[@tasmedic]

+xIRATUMx That's why Mat sat down in front of the nice brown oak tree. Plus, he did say that when the squirrels have heaps of food to go at, they get less cautious. He wasn't even going to bother with the head net, but he thought it might keep the midges off. All you have to do is watch the video, and listen. The answers are all there.....

[@jamesbuell3526]

+xIRATUMx Looking down from in the trees is a lot more brown as opposed to the camera mans point of view.

[@theshootingshow]

+James Buell Absolutely right. It's surprising how many hunters don't realise that any quarry that's off the ground is likely to be viewing you against the woodland floor.
