    Vets refusing to work on hunting dogs

    I have heard of a vet or two in WI that won’t work on banged up bear hounds. I haven’t ran into it personally but I have a great vet. As for the ones that don’t work on them I’m not sure if it was more of a I’ll help this time but don’t bring them back or a flat out refusal to help. Again this...

    Kitchen renovation appliances

    We built in 2020 and went with what I think is a mid range price set of appliances from Cafe which is made by GE from my understanding. Love the appliances we got. Time will tell on if they hold up. I also learned about different fridge depths the hard way… I have a 6” gap behind it hidden by...

    Money Market Account

    I have a small amount of money in fidelity’s sprxx fund. It is right around 5%. Used it to save for a down payment on a car and saving up now for some sort of real estate purchase in the next year or two. Sure beats the local bank savings account of .25% or what ever little amount it is

    The Shoot2hunt Podcast

    I have not but most of the time any sort of finishing shot is 2-5 yards away with something like a 30-30 or shotgun with slugs. I have seen a few shot with pistols but not nearly as many. Any bear shot out of a tree we typically tell the shooter to aim for the head as well.

    The Shoot2hunt Podcast

    I black bear hunt and know a guy who was bit by a bear on his ankle. The bear was treed with hounds and shot as it decided to come down but likely a poor shot. He went after it with his pistol and ended up slipping down an embankment that the bear was at the bottom of. It bit him and he shot it...

    Tikka Rebate

    In general it seems like checks were mailed in the last week or so. I’ve noticed dates from November into January. Maybe they just process them in batches

    Tikka Rebate

    My two rebates showed up today. Never did get an email beyond the confirmation email. And it still shows in process on the website

    Tikka Rebate

    Interesting to see how many denials people have had. I emails through the contact us link yesterday and am waiting a response as it had been over 13 weeks and still “processing”

    Tikka Rebate

    I did see a note on the website about needing a receipt with the serial number on it. I know my Cabela’s receipt did not and they would not provide one. Hopefully they are lenient on that requirement.

    Tikka Rebate

    Found a like on the original tikka rebate that lets you check the status of it. Mine is still in process. Maybe paper checks take longer.

    Tikka Rebate

    Sounds like I’m due any day for an email. I submitted mine on November 30th. I did have two that I submitted so maybe that’s taking longer

    Tikka Rebate

    Has anyone gotten their rebate from tikka yet? If so how long did you wait and did you get any extra emails from them beyond the initial email stating they received it?

    Legality of shooting TOWARD a road?

    Of it depends on the state but I believe in Wisconsin the following applies. I thought there were rules on shooting from a gravel road for grouse in northern Wisconsin but couldn’t find anything. I don’t do hunt them so it’s likely changed over the years. I have shorten towards a road here but...

    Silencerco Scythe TI review

    New to suppressors here but wanting to get the process started on one. I am between the ultra 7 and the sycthe tI. Is one a clear winner or is a toss up and preference between the two? Using it on a 7 rem mag tikka I’m thinking of going through capital armory after reading some other threads.

    How will 75% Tag Allocation Affect Preference Points in CO?

    Will cause more point creep for non residents. Probably stabilizes things for residents by a year or two before it creeps up again in low point units. Harder draws won’t change the point creep is my guess.

    Home gun vaults. Who has one and what’s the do and donts ?

    I tried to have a concrete room put in our house when we built. It’s entirely concrete except for the door and just above it for the floor trusses. I needed a reverse brick ledge to get it fully concreted in. The door was supposed to be sized for a vault but the concrete guy messed it up and...
