ALL animals removed from our farm are harmful pest species and legal to shoot any time of the year. More info on invasive/problem bird species can be found.....EVERYWHERE (it's the internet). So, do 30 seconds of research before you go and make an ass of yourself in the comment section.
I've been at this 12 years now. Thanks for growing old/up/out with me. 🤗
quite graphic, hope it pass YT police.
the true legend is you
Half my life watching and I won’t stop!!
This channel always makes me so happy. I wish you'd post more, but appreciate when you do. You went video game mode today. It was fun to watch
No worry's 🤣
Is just me, or does everyone else feel like a kid at Christmas time when Ted uploads his videos?
I remember growing up on a dairy farm watching your videos when I was 10 now 19 and still happy whenever I see you're still posting🤘🙏
I agree I grew up on his channel being the fact I’m almost 20 now we’re the same damn age but I have to say Ted has kept me entertained for years it makes me happy to see him enjoy life doing what he loves
Time really does fly. I remember subbing when you had less than 300 subscribers because I was fascinated with the development of air rifles. Haven’t missed a single video since.
Been a while since I’ve seen a video of yours pop up in my feed, and just wanted to say thanks. Found you back in probably 2010, and fell down the airgun rabbit hole hard. Never counted, but guessing you caused me to spend $20k+ on a sport no one I’ve ever met liked or understood - just through your videos. FX, Daystate, Airguns of Arizona, heck even Casio of Japan (because I bought one of those too) all owe you a commission or at least a pat on the back. Good to see your are still doing it, and appear to be well. Stay Gold 👍👊🇺🇸🤘
Dam. He got you too huh? Worse than me. I feel a little better now.
You got me hooked on these PCPs. I went to Extreme Benchrest because of your videos about it. Now you have convinced me I need a slug setup. I may need to get a 2nd job to fund all this cool stuff! Thanks Ted. 🤣👍
No one has prompted me to spend more money than your videos and I do thank you for the information and instruction you provide. I just received my FX Impact Mk 3 with the 800mm barrel, power block, and tuned for the NSA 31.2 grain slugs. I will be posting videos with it soon, weather permitting.
It's always like Christmas when you drop a bird shooting video
does he do this for fun and practice? or do these birds need to be removed for some reason?
@@mrschnider6521 Starlings are an invasive, non-native species in the US, and their droppings pose a risk to the cattle seen in the video.
It’s like Christmas when you shoot a bird dropping video.
Mr. Schneider, those “poor” birds are the equivalent of rats with wings. They cause hundreds of thousands in agriculture damage, urban destruction, and defacement and contribute toward the spread of disease. I wonder if you feel just as warm-hearted towards rats and roaches. Watch something you understand.
@@mrschnider6521 Invasive pest birds.
Ted is the most effective barn cat ever 😂
its nice to know there are people out there doing their part to keep the ecosystem in balence.
This was one of your best videos. A lot of carnage but informational as well. Outstanding equipment.
As a kid i always liked airguns plinking and shooting birds in the back yard but i lost interest the older i got and then one day about 5 years years ago one of your bird shooting videos popped up and bam just like that i was hooked. Thank you Ted for bringing me back in to a childhood hobby. Maybe one day soon i can find the time to start making airgun videos again as i once did but for now work and life has that stalled.
You need netting for the bugs, an umbrella for the sun, and MANPADs for the F-16s.
I enjoy geeking out every time you show your gun, and with the additional range finder makes it look super slick.
Been watching you since i was a kid! Glad to see you still at it!
your the reason I bought a FX in the first place. I've been watching you for 10 years now and will not stop. great work on your video editing and your work on the channel.
I can't help but imaging you pullin that trigger as you whisper "avadacadavar"
Love how there is so much carnage that even when there is a ricochet or a miss, the corpse of a bird in the background gets flung like a rag doll. You’ll need an excavator for the hole to bury all of them! Great to have you back, Ted!
I’ve been subbed to your channel for about 10 years now. Glad to see that you’re still doing well, Ted!
Best airgun chanel
on CZcams ‼️👍
Hello from Wales UK, Been with you from the beginning buddy, a Daystate man but topping my air, rim and centre fires with Elements scopes. Still loving it dude. 2 a.m. here.
Ted, this past summer I went to walmart and bought a daisy 880 and 5 pounds of BBs to learn on. No shooting experience. Never been hunting. I took that thing camping and it was the most fun thing ever at the camp sight with my nephews. dialing in the scope for the first time and then schooling my nephews who were using a similar rifle from 20 years ago (my older brothers) with iron sights. They were real talkative until I got it shooting straight. They were having a blast with it too after I handed it to them to try. We shot a whole 6 pack of cans in half before the weekend was over.
I've been watching since 2017 but this was the year I jumped in and it was a blast. I honestly cant wait till next year cause I am gonna try out some pellets you have recommended before and I am gonna slap a bigger scope on this for longer range shots.
Ted! It’s good to see you!! Your having to much fun old man. I’ve been watching you for years it’s funny that you call yourself an old man I’m 60yrs old I’m old your still a young man. Great content as usual.
60 and you’re still young? Well,just keep telling yourself that,young man! Lmao😂
Hi Ted, thanks for another great video. I really enjoyed seeing you and hearing your comments. Please do a video on the 'Base Optics Range Finder." I'd be very interested in how it works, how to set it up and where to get it. I'm terrible at knowing distances.
Similar to the base optics one if not the same
Been watching from the start when I CZcamsd “shooting pest birds” and one of your first videos popped up. I grew up on a farm and we were overrun with starlings, rabbits, and other pest birds. You got me into air rifles and they significantly made a positive impact on the farm without scaring the livestock or having to worry too much about overshot. Thanks for everything!
That neck shot looked like something from a Quentin Tarrentino movie. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us.
Way to go Ted! Been watching your videos from the beginning. Insanely and lethally accurate! There's no "luck" with you, rather science and math to dial in and account for all variables! Utmost respect for you and your abilities. Love when you make / edit and post the carnage!
I’ve been watching your videos since I was 10 or 11 years old and now I’m 23 and still get excited to see you go out and give so much information and have fun doing the things we love. I got a Benjamin discovery for my birthday back in 2014 because I’d watch your air gun reviews. Now I’m 23 and fixing up my discovery so I can squirrel hunt like how I did years ago.
Thanks Ted you’re an inspiration to keep going even when you’re old🙏🏽
I've been watching you since the early Edgun Matador days. Your channel has come a long way, and you are the best airgun channel on CZcams bar none. I've just started shooting Nielsen slugs through my Daystate Pulsar HP rifles, driven partly from your videos. The .178/15s shoot under 1/2" at 50 yards, literally dropping slugs onto the crosshairs. The .25/33.6s shoot under 1/2" and I'm 2 out of 2 with it on grey squirrels, both at 50 yards during this year's squirrel safari in the Ouachita Mountains in west Arkansas, one a chest shot and one a neck shot, both dead instantly and the THWOCK of the slug is louder than the report of the Pulsar. You're shooting faster than I am... I'm getting right at 900 ft/sec with the slugs in both calibers, but I'm shooting with the factory HIGH settings. Honestly, as hard as these things hit I don't know if I need anything faster and I don't want to go supersonic. I have the .2165/24.8 NSAs for my .22 Air Wolf but haven't fired them yet... I imagine they'll do in the mid-900 ft/sec range. I have several accurate .22 rifles (Kimbers, Winchester 52s, CZs with Lilja barrels, a Turbo Specialties-based hunting rifle) but the Daystates do as good or better, are quieter than a suppressed .22 shooting subsonic match ammo, and even slugs are far cheaper than good .22 target ammo. There's no handicap from using my Pulsars to hunt.
I remember you talked about why you started with PCP air rifles and how farmers appreciated the lack of penetration of grain silos and barn roofs... are you going to lose that shooting a 25 grain slug at 1100 ft/sec? But, based on your video and the birds you're blowing in half, they do hit hard.
I would love to find a farm with a starling problem, or a pigeon problem, or even a rat problem. But, at least this year it's gonna be squirrels in the National Forest and then iguanas in S Florida..
Crazy how you're punching chunks of flesh off of the birds!
Also, I was quite surprised to see how small they are, when you pour them out of the bucket! They look at least twice the size through the scope!
Slugs are no joke. They're basically firearm bullets.
You are the true legend, thanks to you I do what I do 🤝💪👏👏
Ted have you ever thought about getting a mosquito net, and a shade overhang cover that you can clip on to the car you're lying next to?
Mosquito mesh = fix the fly problem
Shade cover = fix the sun problem
Dont want you to get cancer from that direct sunlight. Want you to stick around for much longer! Big love
They are pests introduced to America and Australia by the home sick British they destroy so much fruit crops its not funny costing farmers millions upon millions in crop damage .What do you suggest try and capture all of them and send them back to Britain may be you can go to some farms around you area and donate Mosquito mesh or even go there and scare the birds away
Ted, please, make more videos. I’m very picky with what I spend my YT time on, and your pest control videos are my absolute favorites.
Thank you for being the magnificent person you are.
Cheers from Denmark
Great to see new videos. Thank you for what you do for our environment.
I remember first seeing you in the last days of school wow 12 years has flown by fast some of the most enjoyable content!
I love these bird smashing videos. Good to see you back.
Dude I'm always waiting for your videos and seeing your new setups keep it up
o yeah teddy boy glad to see ya love the bird shooting been a fan forever you got me into this mess lol thanks for the shooting lessons
I was 13 when I started watching your vids in 2013…insane how time flies. Happy anniversary dude…I love your vids if I haven’t said it enough. I will single handedly fight off all haters for you my man…remember that the fans outnumber the haters. We’ll always be watchin!
Have enjoyed your videos and appreciated your knowledge for many years. You introduced me to modern PCP rifles. I now own an FX Maverick and two Impact M3s. Keep the content coming.
I love that video where you fed the dead sparrows to the farm cats saying the cats loved them things like buffalo wings lmao
Crazy accurate set up. Thanks Ted for the awesome videos...
Over the years there are some people I subscribe to who I don't touch their sparatic videos anymore. You're one that's always fun to see an upload from.
I just unsub from channels I don't watch.
I find it so relaxing watching and giggling along
Ted is an absolute legend.
Ted my Brother you are the one that got me in to Airguns i remember when you were popping Starling's and Pigeon with your 25 Benjamin Marauder with that Green Mtn Barrel Hope your Doing well God Bless your the Best Airgun Hunter on All Social media 💪🙏💯
Have I really been subbed for 10 years? Jesus
😂
So glad to see new content. I've been with you since the Edgun Marador days and I've always loved your videos.
Great videos please keep them coming. Love the ding noise that really adds to the videos.
I've been watching since you posted "Starlings: Why I shoot them". The only way I can describe how accurate and fast you are at hunting now since then is absolutely frightening. You're the man Ted, best channel on YT
@tedsholdover. scammer
Awesome video Ted. Thank you. Great to have you back. I use a rangefinder like that predominantly at night time and through a night vision setup you can see the laser pulse. Extremely handy when popping rats and rabbits. Great setup
Thanks for the video. I'm still shooting with a Benjamin Discovery. I did get a starling last year. I popped one of about sixty that showed up one morning. Once I made the shot, the rest flew away. Of course, I'm just using the cheap 14.3 grain pellets.
love your videos, its always fun to watch you shoot. stay well.
Hiya bud great to see another video from you always enjoy your videos and tech stuff, I know I'd like to see more of your videos and I dare say alot of other people feel the same way here's to hoping that you will make some more like you used to, anyway keep up the great work pal and happy hunting ooh and I'm watching from the UK
Thanks for the video, we use one of those laser range finders with nv. A tip I gained from RussDouglass222 for nv use is to turn the unit by 90 degrees thereby giving a horizontal laser signature rather than a vertical to improve accuracy. I believe the innards can be rotated to keep the display correct, but as my skills and aspirations differ I read mine on the squiff.
I've seen all of your videos and hands down this was my fav!
You were one of the first channels I subscribed to oh so many years ago. It’s been one heck of a journey! I have enjoyed every minute of your content and have learned far more than I ever imagined. That being said: DAAAAAAAAAMN! Those slugs hit like they were dropped from orbit! Truly stunning performance. I have been successfully running H&N Barracuda (0.97 - 1.0g) copper jacket pellets through my humble little Marauder. I’m curious if slugs will boost the often average performance into something good. As you mentioned the pellets, at longer ranges, fall off hard. Anything over 70 yards (for my set up) becomes an exercise in luck and neck angles. As much fun as it is to pretend I’m Artillery I’d like flatter trajectories at range. I know the Marauder isn’t exceedingly great but for now it’s what I have and provides a fun challenge. I look forward to your next installment! Stay safe!
I am using a AEA Challenger 30 cal. shooting Nielson's 61.5 grain, 0.303 dia slug. I am getting 1,028 FPS at 144.35 FPE. At 100 yards this gun is grouping 5 shots at 3/4".
Thank you, David. 👊
Awesome to see the channel is still going :)
“The horror, the horror” Marlin Brando
It was a regular Starling apocalypse, thanks for that.
Slight clockwise cant to the hold. Ref elev turret and back wall. Maybe put a bubble next to that rangefinder. The 3:30 miss had major right side recoil. Hollow slugs have a nice pressure zone in the hollow and that allows for some great accuracy and ballistics. Once the slug gets thru the bird, its now deflected off angle and is probably whistling like those deer alert car stick ons. Its the transonic velocities and stability of yours that got my interest. Maybe it has something to do with the skirt and CG with the hollow vs the attack angle. My .223 with 69gr sierra matchking hpbt at 750m from a 1:9twist would be transonic and miss with any wind due to instability. We're getting close to air powered .300 blackout territory.
Hey Ted! I’ve recently bought an M3 .22 700mm and im shooting NSA 20.2gr at 960fps. Gives me a 4 mags before I even hit the first reg, and whisper quiet, love that setup. Very accurate, I’ve not been missing my spinners at 100y but they are a little more sensitive for wind
Not even into any of your hobbies but sure enjoy watching you nerd out and many starlings meeting their maker!
Thank Goodness...! Ted, we needed this...!
A great video Ted, well done and thanks.
Was so glad to see you uploaded another video. It’s good to have you back 👍
Carlos Hathcock would be proud. I smiled through the whole presentation. Very well done. Thank You for sharing.
so happy to see you posting again, you missed a good 5 hit when you where waiting for that one to step in front. Crazy shots, crazy rig. Missed ya man! Glad to see ya back
That slow motion walk into the round at 14:22 was pure gold.
@tedsholdover. seems a little scammy
Always good to watch your adventures... you're a little too happy smashing those birds Sir... 🤣
Astonishing accurate gun. Your experience on shot placement keeps me glued to your hunts.
Thanks for the video, always good to have my original airgun master back at it....
So the range finder in this episode has a neat trick to get perfectly on target, if you have night vision optics. Steve Allen shows how to do it in one of his videos. The range finder emits an IR pulse when in scan mode. This IR pulse can be seen through night vision scope. In the dark, place gun in stable rest, use a light to get scope on target. Turn range finder on in scan mode. With night vision you can allign IR pulse to target where scope is pointing. You may have to turn off light to see IR pulse.
Hope this helps for future setup..
the first video I watched was FX Revolution and was hooked. Could use some good Slug data for FX Crown, not AEAC he does not dive deep like you do...
love to see you back ted, been subbed for years
It feels like it's more and more rare but it very time I see a Ted's hold over video it makes me so happy I dread to think how long I've been subscribed but thank you for all the content
Been watching your videos since I was a teen. I always love seeing a new upload from you.
Great video as always. Thanks for sharing Ted.
Thanks for the Veterans/ B day present ! Missed ya Man!
About time you made another vid mate love the channel fella cheers from down under

“Oh my gosh! I think he just evaporated!” 😳🤣👏🏼💀
Looks like you are hitting them with a .17 HMR with the chunks flying!
Good seein ya doin what ya do. Those hits are explosive, bird parts raining everywhere. 1100 fps is smoking !
2:03 greatest kill yet
Good to see your videos again !
Love the new setup you got going on
Been a while since I watched. Glad you're still at it.
Awesome shooting! Starlings are my favorite pest bird to shoot as well! Love your vids! Keep them coming!
Excellent vid Ted.
Making me want to tune for slugs now 🤣
great work Ted
You made my day bro it has been a while since i enjoyed hunting\pest control video
The energy is brutal!
I had a dream about your videos. I used to watch you years ago but my recommendations would never suggest you. Glad to see you still clearing out some pests.
Thanks for the great content!
Great vid! Those birds were exploding!! Coolest pellet and gun combo ever! Wish you could post more often.
Slugs, not pellets. Just so ya know.
Another awesome video Ted there is nothing better than smacking starlings and cow birds and sparrows and the slugs literally turn the birds inside out and that triple you got was amazing. Keep rocking them Ted
Wow! You were on a roll there. Excellent shooting.
Dejlig at se dig igen på CZcams ❤️
Jeg elsker dine film
❤️
Glad to see ya back and hunting Ted
Awesome shots ted
Hi ted! Glad to hear about you again :)
