Thats correct mate👍 always careful around there and constantly on the thermal to check for stray walkers of the footpath

Well spotted 😉 Andrew's is between two of my other permissions I have, its very handy to be able to walk the three of them together

Cheers mate, you can input any pellet weight with the zulus it's quite simple to use once you have had a little play with it👍

Thats a interesting thought, would have to see how the legalities would be with moderators being on license but if it was past of a shroud it should be ok🤔

@MJSherwood timelapse? That was real time I will have you know🤣 Cheers mate appreciate the thumbs up on the content, it's a great backstop and makes for some good shooting

@@Veteranvermincontrol speedy!!!

@jimwood thanks buddy really appreciate the comment and it's nice to know someone likes the content 🙏

@Veteranvermincontrol no worries. I've got some videos coming up with my 17hmr soon, cracking little rifle I thinking. Keep up the good work 👍

Thats something that I heard regarding the manufacturing of the rounds with various brands being the same just branded up differently, Winchester being a exception. I've not tried any 20g yet but will pick some up next time I see some as like you I'm not to fussed about losing FPS

Do you find this rifle very loud

​@@Veteranvermincontrolthem Remington's are good, best I've used overall in my savage 93, Winchester that I had were so bad I returned the unopened boxes and swapped for Remington ( it was just a case of what they had at the time). Hornady are usually accurate but batches have suffered from split necks. I've got a bunch to use up so going through box by box as I get to them and pulling out the split ones before I start. Nice video mate, well put together!! 👍

Had some split necks with Remington rounds…. Shooting one night, 1 round exploded, blew magazine to bits, side of stock off, luckily my hand was out the way, took said gun to shop, New stock, 2 new magazines, 500 rounds of Hornady ammo!!!🤘💪💪💪

@suricky1 thanks for the comment mate it's nice to know someone likes the content🙏 You will love the versatile of a rimfire but dont ever get rid of your airguns as they always have a place in the cabinet for certain jobs

Hi Steve I'm using the 5-20 here👍

Hi it's the aluminium version, the weight difference between this and the carbon one is not much and not worth the extra money👍

The daytime footage was later on in the day as the light was fading so the picture quality naturally drops, check out my other video which is about 6 or 8 minutes long as I show the low light capability of the scope, in day time it's a lot better. Try and get a look through one at your local RFD if you can, then you will be able to see what the image is like👍 If you do decide to get one look up DABs shooting Supplies in Darlington, Dave and Rachel will be able to sort you out with one, say I've put you onto them👍

@jif4356 at the price point of £600 new and around £400-450 used there phenomenal value for money and I love how compact the units are, I have had mine on everything from my airgun upto my .223, love them!

Hi it's a hik lynx 19mm spotter buddy, the scope is the 5-20 Arken zulus which is fantastic value for money 👍

No problem 👍

Hi it's a bog deathgrip tripod, superb bit of kit and I would be with out it👍

Thanks @danbrown6255 really appreciate the comment 🙏

@@stevewhitton5502 hi mate it was likely to be a 42yrd zero if I remember rightly

Hi, the mod is a ase utra jet z compact, there superb mods and are very well made. It's a shame about the laws you guys have to deal with over there in some ways, I like how you can have semi auto centerfires though......we cant unfortunately

@@Veteranvermincontrol Owning a centre-fire semi-auto is pretty hard though. The 2 easiest options are you have to be a pest controller with contracted customers AND show that the business is your only source of income. Option 2 is a primary producer. Any of the other ways are harder again, military collectors, film armouries, not really any other options than that.

@@Veteranvermincontrol Well, that jet z is ridiculously quiet. I wish they were legal here for the average gun owner.

@@RabbitBusters yeah there pretty good mate, well made aswell

@RabbitBusters Cheers mate🙏 In do like the zulus there superb value for money! I've never looked through a DS35 but hear good things about them. The bog deathgrip is a game changer for me, I'm looking at fitting a ball head with arca swiss on it down the line

@@Veteranvermincontrol If you get the chance, my channel is 99% PARD video if you want to take s look. Thanks for getting back to me. Good hunting mate.

At the moment I'm just using the fps given on the box, I will chrony it soon along with a few other guns and get the ballistics set up so there on the money

Hi it's just a generic dovetail to picatinny rail off amazon, it was about £13 but works very well

Hi it's a wildcat panther whisper, it's a over barrel moderator which makes the guns overall length nice and compact

@@Veteranvermincontrol thanks

No worries buddy👍

Hi I think its because I have been using my phone to record some footage and when I rotate to camera it gives a mirror image, will figure it out so that It doesn't. All zulus's come as they are so no LH versions, which personally I see no need for and I'm left handed 👍

Yeah, phones can be weird. So no issues with the bolt fouling the Zulus or mount? Probably depends on bolt lift angle.

Yeah I will have a play around with the setting on the camera see if I can sort it. I've not encountered any issues with the bolt not being able to cycle due to interference from the moneys or the unit, it sits quite high as it is so should clear most bolts, on the tikka its 60' bolt throw so no chance of that but on my howa 1500 that's got a much more open bolt throw and it works absolutely fine, there cracking little scopes for the money 👍

Hi I'm not aware of any dovetail mounting options for the zulus as yet so cant say. But for your HMR I think the 0moa mount would work, I've currently got a 35moa mount on mine which has been shimmed because it was on my fac airgun and it works, but I've just got another zulus and it came with a 0 moa mount, which I will put on my HMR and hopefully it will work, will report back soon👍

Hi, I have a 35moa mount on this set up, I had to shim the scope though to get it so I could swap it onto my other guns until I bought another zulus 👍

Thanks Antony I appreciate the comment, I'm not all that good with technology, and i did have a few moments when i was scratching my head with the set up of the zulus, but once i got familiar with it i found it easy to use, like you say many people have raised the issue you mentioned and i think it will be good for many users who want a more simplistic approach to use. I'm excited to see what the next few years hold for the arken zulus and the brand on the whole. Thanks again for your comment

Thanks mate, slowly getting there but still not back to normal yet😐

Thanks I appreciate that! It's new to me so just trying to see what people like and what's the best way to document my sessions. Again thank you👍

Pic rail was just a quick way to get the zulus on the rifle, down the line it will be swapped out for something more suitable when I've got a chassis for it, just a temporary measure The moderator is a .17HMR caliber specific over barrel/backdraft silencer, built for rimfires as such👍

Hi mate, thanks for the comment . I ditched my .22lr after getting the HMR as I felt it was a more versatile round and I was more productive with it than the .22lr The rifle is a tikka t1x with a wildcat panther moderator. I did have a cz457 in .22lr but the tikka is a better choice in my opinion, that's not to say its better, I just prefer the 3 position safety. That said the synthetic stock on the CZ was much better than the tikkas. If you can try some Remington accu-tips 17g give them a try there equally as good as the hornady vmax 👍

Hi mate, yes it's a kral hi cap jumbo in .22 caliber, nice rifle for the money and it does the job👍

Cheer mate that's appreciated 👍

I'm using the 35moa rail on the zulus and I've then put a cheap picatinny rail on the gun from Amazon. I do sometimes fit a external IR with an adjustable mount onto the zulus itself. Or you could fit a offset mount if you have space on the picatinny rail 👍

@@Veteranvermincontrol needing to raise mine up so bolt can clear, 0moa on mine, whats your zero range

Do you have an link for the riser

Hopefully this link will work mate, what rifle are you putting it on? www.amazon.co.uk/FOCUHUNTER-Tactical-Picatinny-Converter-Lightweight/dp/B08JTRW47R/ref=sxin_19_pa_sp_phone_search_thematic_sspa?content-id=amzn1.sym.463b7ff5-5485-4078-b5dc-c8c41bfc1358%3Aamzn1.sym.463b7ff5-5485-4078-b5dc-c8c41bfc1358&crid=27L4RVC4EFMI3&cv_ct_cx=picatinny+rail&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.keDHThH__MFXm4-iGL_u5op80Y0PXN2YpQoam86_zkH1PcwBhjJW9PaKXqI-EmAQewayVTs2BkE4uYQvD29l_g.oSCaf75_zF0qEsTIG6dzacAOW8VyqDyelnpEU_fmxFo&dib_tag=se&keywords=picatinny+rail&pd_rd_i=B08JTRW47R&pd_rd_r=9bbded77-e71e-4155-b504-7464b97fde1a&pd_rd_w=MJERk&pd_rd_wg=g3IlQ&pf_rd_p=463b7ff5-5485-4078-b5dc-c8c41bfc1358&pf_rd_r=TQQ4D3GKSP2VHDMBYNA4&qid=1716278383&sbo=RZvfv%2F%2FHxDF%2BO5021pAnSA%3D%3D&sprefix=picatinny+ra%2Caps%2C195&sr=1-2-ad3222ed-9545-4dc8-8dd8-6b2cb5278509-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9waG9uZV9zZWFyY2hfdGhlbWF0aWM&psc=1

Regarding zero range I used to zero at 100yrds but I now zero at 42 yrds and it keeps it nice and flat out to 130yrds, I want to play around with a 75 yard zero to see if I can maximize the trajectory for shooting flat out to 150yrds. What do you zero yours at?

Thank you thats greatly appreciated mate

All shots were recorded through the scope (arken zulus)

Sorry should have said, shots on rabbits were recorded through the arken zulus, I do have another camera that I sometimes bring out and set up on target but I was only zeroing so just put the kill shots up

Have you watched the whole video ,he's using a Zulus and records the shots, or are you blind and having a bad day ?

​@@Veteranvermincontrolignore the trolls and block them bud ,your doing a good job

Thanks mate, obviously new to this YT stuff and just trying to find my bearings and how to document my outings the best I can👍

Hi I'm using the hikmicro lynx 19mm, it's a good unit for the money as it allows you to focus the image where the small lens versions are fixed.

Could you let me know which thermal spotting scope you are using? I'm looking to purchase one for myself but am having trouble deciding. Thank you.

He is using a Zulus day and night scope. Also a hikmicro lynx thermal spotter

Hi thanks for the comment, I'm using a hik micro lynx 19mm, which is a handy little unit as you can focus the image

Hello mate😎 thanks for the input

@@Veteranvermincontrol I think dabs should get a mention 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆

Cheers mate👍
