My dad and I try to get up to Cedarville a couple times a year to help some local farmers out with a problem that never really goes away — ground squirrels eating through their alfalfa about as fast as it grows back.
It's also a good excuse to bring some toys. This trip I had a .22 caliber Sidewinder out — a select-fire PCP air rifle that runs safe, semi, or full-auto off a 15-round magazine, shooting Hades .22 caliber pellets, topped with an Arken Optics scope. A lot of people who know me from this channel don't realize I also do PCP airgun equipment for a business called AirTanksPlus.com — this is the hobby side of that world.
I ran through what semi-auto looks like, then flipped the selector to full-auto and burst — nothing serious, just having fun with the gear in between actual pest control.
We'll be back up there again before too long. The squirrels aren't going anywhere, and neither is the alfalfa they're after.

TOPTACTICAL Scope Mounted Engineering Level
A scope leveling tool I use when mounting optics. It levels the scope to the receiver instead of just the top of the base, which matters more than people think — a canted scope throws your shots off to the side the farther out you go. Aluminum construction, quick to set up, and it's the kind of thing you don't think about until your groups are drifting for no obvious reason.
