One lucky Rat....... at 12 midnight it showed up and it was in the Zone for the kill and I flipped the switch and "Missed"...?, Some how It missed the Rat, I had set the POI earlier and did a test shot and it was just right, but when I checked the Back board the POI was low, it went under the Rat...????? the only thing I can think of is the Rat might have climbed on to the Gun and caused the POI to be lower than originally set, it was poking around the patio quite a bit, any how I reset everything and the Rat never came back, so I will try again tonight.

here's the Miss video

This is great entertainment! 

I think this would be a good application for a laser sight . (You know , because you don’t already have enough stuff on your gun : ) I have found them to be effective when your shooting at one known set distance. Thanks for sharing ! We are all rooting for ya

Edit: Your already running night vision. Use an IR laser. The rats will see any visible laser.

Put a dab of peanut butter or Nutella where you want the rat to pose. See the excellent videos from AGN member tflats99 where he uses a "table for one" to stage the targets where he wants.

Keep at it, and get that rat-zilla wannabe.

Rats are extremely intelligent. I’m sure he altered the POI.

Had a power outage last night so it was a no go, so I'm set up tonight and ready to put a lead Mosquito in this Rats Noggin, may the Gods be with me cause that is one Lucky Rat...... wish me Luck.......

Kick ass!!!

 

[molder]

sounds like i might need to pack for a road trip to snipe a rat lol

 

[molder]

well did you get him yet?

 

[KatoKevin454]

well did you get him yet?

Nope, I had another shot at him and it missed too, he heard the servo and jumped out of the way just in time, he is a hard target, he didn't even show up last night, I'll give him time to get the Skittish out and then I'll throw him for a loop and change POI on him, I'll put it right where he likes to sniff from..... I ain't given up yet, sooner or later he will be a Dead Rat......

Instead of a servo you should try using a solenoid to pull the trigger. They are noisier but much faster. By the time the rat hears the noise it will be too late.
