re: A word on e-bikes

[quote]assume you mean the hard part of killing the turkey. I wanted to hear how you eliminate the possibility of them flying down in another direction enough to make it easy. Was genuinely interested.[/quote]
Nothing is going to kill a gobbler that’s just not interested, but you are making it mu...

The unpopular truth about turkey hunting is that if you can find and/or get close to a gobbling turkey by covering a lot of ground quickly they aren’t especially hard to kill, e...

Arduino to make an SMS/GSM relay?

Anyone here get into arduino projects?
Full context: I’m trying to DIY a cellular hog trap trigger. Since 3G was eliminated, none of the standalone eBay/chinese garage door options work in the US anymore.

re: Opinions: Tikka T3x vs CVA Cascade
Posted by TheDrunkenTigah on 3/9/24 at 5:06 pm
I’m not a fan of the flat bill themes most of them come in either, but they can be painted like anything else. CF is for the weight and sound reduction, and having the forend be rigid enough to keep the barrel floated.
Cabela’s sells a version of the stainless superlite with a camo stock, but i...

So don’t buy one. The OP was willing to pay for nicer features, and a carbon fiber stock is a common aftermarket upgrade. 99% of people would be able to feel the difference when a rifle with no scope weighs more than one that does. $800 doesn’t buy shite on guns today, except a stainless tikka. ...

One thing I realized after over thinking it for a long time, I don’t really care if a rifle is threaded since I’m not gonna suppress my deer rifle, or shoot something so big it needs a brake. Just a thought.
I would look hard at putting that extra for the veil on a new stock, peakfortyfour inlet...

[quote]know it would vary widely, but how much would you assume it would cost to cerakote and thread the stainless barrel and flute the bolt?? (I’ll admit I simply like the look of the fluted barrel but it does at least add SOME functionality, however small).[/quote]

Get a stainless superlite and have it threaded if you find that the chambering really needs a brake, or you really want to suppress it.
The veil models are cool but they add a decent amount of weight with the heavier barrel contour, then charge you full price for the cerakote and threading that a...

Posted by TheDrunkenTigah on 3/6/24 at 6:03 pm
Only thing I’ll add to what everyone else has said is don’t drain your wallet chasing the perfect factory load for your gun if the first one does what you need it to do. A deer’s lungs aren’t an inch around, and most of the pointed soft point bullets from any major ammo company are going to perform ...

Supposedly they are going the way of the V8 truck, the engines that defined them are being phased out. That plus 40ft jetskis with a toilet arent going to fly off the lot, so a lot of companies have either gone broke or bowed out. The target market either races them as a career or is borderline reta...
