The Shooting Show - Five-star foxing and stalking with Warwickshire Wild Game

In this week's episode of The Shooting Show, Mark Ripley shows how to mount the Pulsar Thermion Pro 2 thermal rifle scope and zero it before heading out onto the lambing fields after foxes. With the wind blowing across the open hills making shooting challenging, Mark still manages to make good use of his kit to account for five foxes in a short space of time.
Then Stuart Eborall, of Warwickshire Wild Game, goes out stalking in search of muntjac, roe or fallow to keep on track with the estate management plan.

Cracking follow up shot. It cant always go perfect. Glad they showed it

[@thescull3479]

That second shot at the fox on the run was legendary 👌

[@phillipmatthews2531]

Well Mark,I’ve decided if I’m ever walking across a field at night and someone shouts ‘hoi’ l ain’t stopping and looking!…it might be you!😂 hey great shooting!

[@johnallen8618]

Excellent shooting Mr Ripley 👌

[@williamwilson2624]

Nice follow up shot Mark. You can't shoot perfectly all the time. Great video this week guys.

[@paddlesmcbean2366]

My new pulsar ther ion is due to arrive tomorrow. Cant wait to get it sighted in and head off fox shooting. Thanks for the video from Western Australia.

[@nigelgriffiths5732]

That was a cracking session

[@eddiefinney8509]

Great show mark👍

[@regsparkes6507]

Great show tonight Chris, especially these two segments with Mark and Stewart/Stuart ( especially the inference to the 'heft' of those binos. :)

[@DrDIII]

Amazing vids. Always!!

[@DrDIII]

Yo! Seriously... One of the best vids on this channel in a minute. Excellent episode.

[@TheBoarClub]

I know marks not the tallest fella but he makes that 6 inch steel target look huge 😂

[@260rips]

In my defence I must point out it’s a 12” target! 😆

[@OSOK7]

Alway enjoy your video's and I admire that you included that first fox which wasn't your finest hour but imho had you of had NV on it would have been clean .

[@marcallan1204]

Nice work Rippers You need a USA coyote trip with that running shot 👌 bonza

[@markbutler1616]

Stunning shooting from Mark! Great show as ever👍

[@frode880]

I understand why you took the shot and in the spur of the moment we probably would have done the same. But hey at least the farmer will have lambs, to keep great British farmers going.

[@frankkleff5023]

Perfect shooting. What adjustable rifle stock do you use on your Tikka?

[@theessexhunter1305]

Nice job Mark, what happened to your wellies in the wet...😇

[@260rips]

They have a split in them! Just ordered another pair 😉

[@theessexhunter1305]

@@260rips Good lad, like any good foxer the devil is in the detail. Nice to see left handers in action, good shooting in that wind. Will be looking out for your new boots lol

[@MELLYBOY58]

I hope you took your paint off the back of your truck.✌️✌️🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@260rips]

I did yes! 😆

[@allandobbs7059]

Mark are you using the PIP on the Thermal for reference for the shot or just filming purposes?🧐🤔As I didn’t think the main window of the shot picture was precise enough for the actual shot?🧐

[@260rips]

Yes your quite right, I’m using the pip window to shoot by with the main screen on base mag for clearer footage 👍

[@DrDIII]

.260 RIPS!!!! Always

[@callumhepworth-smith6376]

Well done Mark....as always!!! Not the greatest video on shooting deer: - Equipment - gloves (green and surgical), Face cover, knife, drag rope, Roe/Munty call. - shooting it front on low in the neck??? assuming the bullet travelled all the way through the body cavity - The animal was still alive when they arrive at it!! This is the kind of thing we need to be very careful of showing.

[@raymondhaines574]

I think you need to have a word with editing team should have cut the walk up to the deer wear it was clearly still alive and then tell us about shooting it whilst still holding the knife you finished it with lol

[@jamesmeechan328]

If you can’t kill it on your first shot then don’t take it. I’m all for pest control but don’t let things suffer.

[@bogroll11]

you must be like me don't shoot them on the run there is always another day.

[@jamesmeechan328]

@@bogroll11 i totally understand I didn’t mean to sound nasty as I do hunting myself and know it’s not always 1 shot 1 kill.

[@260rips]

As I stated in the video, I took the running shot as I thought I may have wounded it with the first shot as there was a hot splash on its body visible as it was running - like blood - this turned out to be in fact a patch of mange.

[@richwielechowski5191]

Good shooting Mark. Deer hunter not very good, could not hear his commentary

[@260rips]

Deerhunter clothing is actually excellent, it was the 20-30mph wind blowing across a crap mic that was not very good! 😆 the clothing doesn’t make any noise 😉

[@ewancorlis4042]

Get 1000 of these rigs sent to Ukraine.

[@TheBoarClub]

That bloke deer stalking was the most boring thing ive ever watched! The only amusing bit was when he walked over to the deer and it lifted its head an looked at him 🤦i like the channel but you need more action and less chatting crap. 99% of viewers are deer stalkers so stop telling us how to suck eggs and show us some shot footage.

[@260rips]

In fairness there are also a lot of novices that watch the channel too 🤷🏻‍♂️ 😉

[@bogroll11]

all the gear and no idea thousands of pounds spent ,does my tits in go back to basics

[@johnsarge4732]

So did the deer actually look at him then? I rewind the footage and still wasn’t sure if it did or not. I’d like to think that if the animal was still conscious then this information should be included in the video. BTW I’m not a hunter myself but a keen air gun plinker just in case anyone thinks I’m an anti having a nag

[@richardharvey1637]

Pretty sure that deer was still alive when he walked up to it, cuts to him bleeding it out. Should've taken follow up shot.
