Another visit to the rat farm and this time the rats were not that many as before. I guess the previous three visits had made some impact.
My HW100T .22 and Pard008LRF continues to pounce these rats with Baracuda 15. My plan is to try the Hades 16gr next time I go back to see if I would get less pass thru and more knock down power.
Enjoy.

Good shooting Alex! Definitely looks like they are thinning out some. I'm sure the farmer is happy!

Another great video! I don't know what I enjoy more-- watching you put down the vermin or drooling over your excellent collection of guns and accessories!

@customcutter. Thank you. I will need to return there to check it out as I haven't been back for over a month now. Weather is getting too cold for my liking, lol. I am eager to try out the Hades 16gr and see if that helps with the prevention of pass thru.
@BassMan. Thank you. Drool any way you like, lol. Happy to share my footages and experience with you all.

Give them about 6 week. What's left has more and more move in. They are impossible to wipe out. They also change their feeding times. Try a couple hours before daylight. Some will only feed at that time and others change their schedule from being hunted.
Farms around here are so clean today the rat population is low. Pig farms use to be prime for rats, Now every thing is in containers and sealed until feeding time. Not much to shoot at. Cattle farmers have all left this area. Now we have BIG chicken farms. Good shooting and enjoy.

@sicumj. I am sure they will multiply and get out of control again. Weather has been crappy and I haven't been back there for 5 weeks now. I am eager to return there and shoot them with the Hades 16gr.
