This contracted shoot I'm solo, and hunting invasive feral pigs, goats, foxes and feral cats. The critters are smashing the oats crops and causing all sorts of mayhem. There's a bunch of kill shots in this video running both my 223 Remington and the 6.5 PRC #Smurfgun as I assist these property owners with a few problem animals.

Things kick off pretty quickly in this video with some long range goats and 6.5PRC. Then it's onto camp set-up, interrupted by more goats. As things get dark I roll out the 223Rem and thermal kit. I think you'll agree, it's rather effective!

It was great to be out again in my mate Darren's Wedgetail Hawk Camper and riding around on my Suzuki King Quad AXI 500 ATV. Weather conditions were rather chilly at night to say the least, but it was nice and warm canopy curled up in my sleeping bag. The ability to camp up on the oats crop fence in this rig really did make a difference on this shoot, as you will see.

I'm not shooting for human consumption on this trip, it is purely pest control of invasive species in Australia. These uncontrolled animals are an environmental and agricultural menace, often carrying bacterial and diseases like brucellosis. Pigs are left where they lay as carrion, nothing generally lasts more than a week in the Aussie bush before it's just a few scattered remains.

Rifles used - I always get asked that !!!

The blue rifle, AKA #smurfgun is an Australian GCPD Arms Elite Series II chambered in 6.5PRC, 24" Carbon Six barrel all sitting in the GCPD Arms fully adjustable chassis. Suppressor is a Shawmac Industries, and I'm shooting Hornady 147gr ELD-M projectiles. Optic is a Japanese made Zerotech Trace Advanced 4-24x50mm FFP fitted with a Pulsar Krypton 2 XG50 thermal clip on.

My 223Rem is a Cat D firearm and I have no wish to show it off further than what's in the content. I'm using 60gr Fiocchi EPN ammunition, and must say, for a 223Rem, it goes alright as you will see !!!

Thermals, I'm running a Thermion 2 LRF XL50 on the rifle. And Telos LRF XL50 monocular.

If you are interested in a thermal or night vision device in Australia, have a chat with Ben from Hunt the Night. He's the best in the business for a very good reason, kind of a nice fella too which helps and he's supporting the channel to get you this type of content.

I am a vertebrate pest control - contract shooter in NSW. For those wondering about the equipment being used, both my mate and I hold the necessary permits and licences when working under paid contracts in NSW. This isn't hunting. It's professional pest control. If you are seeking information regarding that, please check the FAR webpage for details in your state. All shooting is performed on privately owned farms, with exclusive permission granted in writing for paid services.

Please don't ask how much I earn or how to become a contract shooter. I'm not a business adviser. The requirements and information vary state by state. If seeking this information, research your own states legislation. I get this question a LOT, and it's not a path I wish to go down on social media.
