Thanks Snyper. If I use a small night light I still need power inside. Thus, my original question.

Thanks for the reply. It's a 1/2" nut welded to the inside of the top of the safe. I'm not sure of the thickness of the steel. It's a National Security H-700 bought back in '91. I'll look into those fittings and the high temp goop. Thanks again.

Hi, I have a National Security safe. I was thinking of putting a Goldenrod and some lighting in it. It already has a hole in the top. At this time there is a 1/2" bolt plugging the hole. Will removing the plug and threading a power cord through the hole significantly reduce the fire rating...

Never thought of that. If I can't find a gunsmith with a price I can live with, I might try that.

Thanks, RC. I'll call around.

I've got an old Remington 512 tube fed, bolt action, .22 that I want to put a scope on. The owners manual, online, says the receiver is grooved. Well, mine is not. My question is: should I look into having dovetail grooves machined into the receiver or having 4 holes drilled and tapped into...

Never heard of centerpoint scopes. I'll look into them.

Thanks for the tips! I'll look into those. Keep the recommendations coming.

I have a Marlin Model 25 - 22lr. rifle. Until recently, I've only shot it with the original iron sights. Being 66, that doesn't work so well any more. I slapped a red dot on it recently and was getting dime sized groups at about 40 yards. I was impressed. I think I'd like to get a variable...

Thanks Bill & RC. I'll give those things a look.

Like I said, It shoots 125gr. Nosler green tips like a champ. Just curious what's up with the heavier bullets.

My brother sent me a .300 blackout upper that he picked up as part of a build. He wanted me to check it out while he was waiting for his lower. Eventually I was going to load some ammo for him. I took it to the range today, mounted on my S&W M&P 15 lower. It loved 125gr. Nosler green tips...

300 Blackout fans Powder Valley has the 110 gr. Barnes bullets for the 300 blackout/whisper, $29.00/50.

Midsouth - primers Midsouth sent me an email. No hazmat on in stock primers, minimum 5k, mix and/or match. Just ordered 5k.

I just have to get used to it. Then I'll see what I want to do with it, as far as weights and/or mounting. Thanks again for all the replies. You folks are the best!
