This pic was taken in the afternoon, and the camera was pointing north. So I dont think the sunlight is the problem. Next time I will try Bushnell:)

I got my Stealth Cam two weeks ago, first week the camere took ok pics. But this week the pics are white and I only see shadows. What is wrong? Do I have to send it back or can I fixs it myself?

I have a barrel from an old Mauser 98, I have just fired 300 rounds throu this barrel. Can this barrel be rechamberde to 25 Winchester Super Short Magnum (WSSM) or some other wildcat? It is a very good custom barrel and I hope to put it on a different action/project

Hallo, I have problem deciding how to use my scope. My rifle is a Win 70 in 7mm STW, ammo is Berger 180gr VLD 3000f/s. Sub 1/2" 3 shot groups @100 meters Shall I use the TDS-4 retricle, or should I take advantage of the 20 moa base? I want to shoot out to 800 meters Any ideas on this...

Have anyone tried Vihtavuori powder like n165 with this combo? American gunpowder is hard to get in Scandinavia. The reloading data found here seems a bit slow I think: 7MM STW I want to get over 3000 foot gun)
