I'm a big fan of Ted's, and he goes to great lengths to promote responsible gun usage in his vids.
I've got no real issue with this vid at all. His guns fire at huge power, if he hits something he is going to bring it down with that gun.
This is a discussion on what do you make of this within the Videos forums, part of the Airguns category; just watched this,and some other vids from this guy,some good,but not sure about this though...

Soory, but what a knob, I may not always get a clean shoot, but thats what i always try, i dont agree with this type of shooting with an air gun, what next, trying a rabbit on the run. Air guns are agreat hunting wepon, but a moving target, its a shotgun.
Sorry but thats my opionion.
2 feral pigeons
2 wood pigeons
1 crow
1 Jackdaw
11 bunnys
1 hare
1 imature man that never grew up, who now has a gun
Webley raider 10 .177, BSA superstar mk1 .22, crossman 357 .177 ratty 2250b .22
To be fair his videos are mostly good was not a big fan of that video. Give the guy credit he is a good shot when doing normal hunting videos
Air Arms S400 super lite .22 hawke 3x9x40 HD scope pigeon x4 Rabbit x1 magpie x1
The static shots are clean. As for the air, speed of pigeon/time taken, hhmm. put enough lead up there something may eventually run into it.
The accurate power of observation is often called cynicism by those who have not got it. G.B.Shaw
It all looks fine because there were no injured birds. Did all the shots completely miss or did he chose to edit those out. Either way that is not the point as the chances of injuring one is very high, the wings and rump are all areas that could injure a bird insufficiently to drop it. By showing people this video only encourages the numpties out there to 'go and have a go'.
More irresponsible airgunning, thats all we need in this country.
