Incredible Long Range Airgun Hunting - Prairie Dog Pest Control with High Power PCPs

It would be nice to know what setups were used for the 250 yards +. rifles, barrel length, slug manufacture, slug weight, etc..

Always nice to hear a honest hunter tell about his mistakes and miss shots. Thanks for your time and effort 👌🏻

When I was a teen back in the late 60's and early 70's living in the great state of Utah USA, we didn't have any Air Guns of Utah stores (they would probably have kicked us kids out anyways) nor did we have any high power PCP air rifles or fancy optics. We would either borrow our dad's car or ride our bikes a few miles to where the prairie dogs, pot guts or jack rabbits could be found. We walked, we brushed, we spotted (with own eyes) and tried teaching our dogs to retrive (LOL). I think I had a Crosman Model 99 22 cal Air Rifle that I used and I remember as a "kid" how dear the ammo was. We managed to inflict our share of carnage and felt like we were great hunters. Cameras were Kodak Instamatics and film was 8mm. My best friend Kelly's folks owned a Super 8 video camera but there was no way that we kids could afford to buy the film or pay for the processing. Hense, no record to post years later on YT or Instagram. I am amazed at how much equipment, how much money and how many support people are needed these days to go plinking. My mom would never let us bring any of our quarry home and she would wash both me and my clothes in a hot lye soap (homemade) bath upon my return.

Great shots! Really visible damage on the farmlands on these aerial shots too. Good hunting

that looked like an insane amount of fun, thanks Matt for the great video.
