It's still on the work bench. Headspace checks out, no change. I will be doing a complete tear down anyhow, i need to reclock the barrel since I got it upside-down the first time, and I think I will give it a little more freebore. I wished I would have had the chrono setup, that may have...

That sounds like the rifle I have been dreaming of for years and could never afford/justify. I like the accuracy and precision game, but I am not in to competition. I tried it and did well, but personality conflicts with big egos proved to be something I rather avoid. I enjoy shooting the...

I have been torn between the 6br and ppc, but will be going ppc simply because of reamer availability and modifying a bolt isn't a big deal. I really should have gone that route with my first barrel job, but stuck to what I know; .243w. My first barrel I did from a straight blank, just for...

Same here for rifle caliber choices. I have tried to limit myself to 6mm and .308, with .22 being a given, but I broke down and bought a 6.5 prc a year ago, which I just cannot get excited about. But why do people hate on other cartridges? Well, it goes like this. I ordered a Bergara B-14 in...

That has always been my approach too; keep it common. I just rebarreled a R7 in .243W with a $170 blank from Green Mountain and custom reamer. The blank looked like any other premium $400 blank internally, for less than half the cost. I have run nothing but 105gr+, but so far the worst is...

Temperature from trail cameras is worthless in my experience because the sensors are net setup to read ambient temperature. They are setup to read the temperature of the camera case and whatever sunlight it receives. I am glad Cuddeback recognized this and spared us from erroneous numbers.

Is it still sending photos? Some plastic tastes better than others I guess.

A big kitty named Deputy Davis did some deterring. Man it feels good. I have been having problems with this guy for a couple decades or more. Usually he takes the cameras or sd cards. I lost three cameras (cheap ones) last year and one sd card, after they drove by some other cameras and...

It's been really slow. Except repeated and willful trespassers with a 4 year old standing court order. Deputy responded from 30 miles away and found them on the county road.

I would not put any emphasis on temperature readings. I have several thermometers for various things and they are never consistent with each other for many reasons, primarily because of thermal and fluid dynamics.

Isn't there a sensor test under the test menu also?

The only thing I can think is check the delay, and check to see if it is showing "dwell", which means it is waiting before another picture is taken.

Well, the Deceptor started working again for a week or so after clearing the card remotely, and then stopped syncing and sending photos again. I am pretty unhappy with stealth cam at this point. Customer service sucks, if you add another email to your account, you cannot remove it. Or at...
