    Rifle scope extension pros and cons

    My new Vortex scope came with a four inch long tube that threads on the end of it. What are the advantages of it. Thanks!

    Wish Scheels was in Florida.

    We have a Scheel's here in Colorado Springs. Nice store, primers are hit or miss at 89 to 95 bucks per thousand. Good prices on new guns, pretty good selection but Cabelas beats them hands down on used guns. Staff is always friendly and helpful.

    Question about Ed's red.

    That Type F will work fine. Same as Dexron but with a friction additive.

    Snap caps for dry firing a Rimfire revolver

    Whatever purpose a person can find to dry fire a rim fire can be solved with an afternoon at a range with a few hundred rounds. I dread pulling the trigger on an empty rim fire and I use empty cases to release the firing pins on my semi-autos before storing them away.

    Looks like an unfinished kit. Some were horrible with mismatched parts that couldn't be assembled correctly.

    Remington Nylon 66

    I still have one my Great Uncle gave me when I was thirteen years old. Came with an El Paso made Weaver scope. All my friends had 10/22's that I wish I had but the little Remington shot just as good if not better than the Rugers. I looked up the code and if I remember correctly it was made in...

    Winchester 1200 stock help

    I am try to remove the stock from an early Winchester 1200. I removed the butt pad and found part of a 1964 dated newspaper wadded up in the hole where the stock screw is. After that I've dug out pieces of metal and now towards the bottom someone might have poured molten lead. Thinking of using...

    32ACP autoloaders

    My only 32. Bernadelli model 60 hammer fired. Its very well made and very tight. It dates to 1969. Picked it up in an auction because 32 is one of those non mainstream calibers you can get when everything else dries up. It always hangs up on the last round in the magazine. I guess it's not...

    Tumbling brass on a budget advice

    My Harbor Freight dual drum rock tumbler was a cast away Christmas gift my eleven year old son got last year. I think we gave sixty bucks for it. Add a 2 1/2 pound box of pins for twenty bucks from Amazon and lemi shine from Walmart and I was set. I'll probably store my Frankford Arsenal...

    First try at wet tumbling, how do I store my pins?

    I've heard the pins can rust. Sounds like a few days in water would be ok?

    I am very impressed with cleaning my brass with stainless steel pins and a dual drum Harbor Freight rock tumbler. Wondering how you guys store your pins between uses?

    Want to upgrade my powder measure

    I've outgrown my Lee "perfect" powder measure and crappy Lyman 1500 scale. I'm leaning towards the RCBS chargemaster. What are everyone's thoughts and recommendations? Thanks in advance!

    How to Convert Cheap Gun Safe for just Handguns????

    I built these shelves out of birch plywood with sticky back felt for my safe. I built two but to use any more I'd have to kick the rifles out of the safe. Dimensions are similar to what GunnyUSMC posted.

    Smokeless powder

    Years ago I started with black powder revolvers. 30 grains 20 grains whatever. Lots of fun. Then I started loading handgun cartridges. A few tenths of a grain can make a huge difference. I then learned a new appreciation for the power of smokeless. Not at all worth playing with putting it in a...
