W1000 vs Squirrels

[TEXASLAWMAN]

The in-laws were having a rodent problem so I attached the W1000 to a suppressed 22lr here is the video.


It was daytime temp was in the 70's and very high humidity thermals worst enemy.

cool, so how many shots to sight in on the 22? and can you return to 0 on the 6.8?

Love to watch squirrels bite the dust. I have had a personal vendetta against squirrels in my yard since last January when they ate the wiring in my jeep.

It took 3 shots. I counted the clicks so should return to zero on the 6.8

Pretty cool, I guess you could not have done that w the PVS 14? LOL

 

[Wassman]

Good I hate their music.

No the squirrels do not come out at night this was daytime.

 

[FrankT]

LOL, just had to play then!

That is the nice thing about thermal it don't care if it is bright, dark, or foggy. Just don't try looking through glass LOL

Now that I have my trust set up I think a .22 suppressor should defiantly be first on my list. Love watching squirrels die. I'm at 85 for this season just in my little suburban yard with a cheap pellet gun

 

[Itsazonik]

It's still not to bad to use though...... Accurate at the 10 to 15 yards max that I shoot.....

 

[DaveABQ]

Nice, last night after everything got colder I could see the mice running around

 

[Itsazonik]

I'll turn on my side light some nights and shoot the fruit rats off my fence as they run past headed for my neighbors trees

Fruit rats"......... Dang not as good as shooting hogs but rats got to go away.

 

[Itsazonik]

Yeah, they will destroy everything in sight for food

We used to go rat shooting at the dump it was great fun! I can only imagine what it would be like at night with the thermal!

 

[Itsazonik]

Strap an $8000 thermal to a $20 pellet gun? Would be interesting

 

[TEXASLAWMAN]

Just don't use a spring fired pelet gun. The recoil on those things is hard on scopes.
