This article is about my experience using a shipping container as a mouse-proof cellar. A couple of important notes up front – shipping containers are not designed to have a load-bearing roof. I discovered that quickly while attempting to put a dirt cover over the top of the container. With a small load of dirt on top, the roof of the metal container began to bow. I shoveled the dirt back off of there, and revised my plan as explained below. So don’t do that. Also, it is essential that the container be installed above the groundwater table to prevent…

Already a fan of Ruger’s long-discontinued double-action Security-Six, Police Service-Six and Speed-Six revolvers, I simply couldn’t pass up the opportunity to acquire one of the latter in 9 mm Luger when an unfired, 42-year-old example turned up at a gun show. Having recently updated the magazine’s Exploded View coverage of the classic Six series (January 2025, p. 58), I knew that a 9 mm Luger Speed-Six was considered a collectible. Still, after studying up on the cartridge’s ballistics from short-barreled revolvers, and becoming convinced that loading rimless rounds via moon clips was likely to outpace loading a rimmed-cartridge revolver with…

The benefit of a lightweight rifle is lost the moment you top it with a clunky, overweight optic, particularly a lengthy one. To that end, we are starting to see an emphasis on riflescopes that are less cumbersome when mounted, such as Steiner’s Predator 4S. As the name suggests, the 4S is a line extension to the company’s hit Predator series, with the “S” indicating it is a shorter version of the series’s existing 4-16X scope. Unlike its longer brother, it features a smaller 44 mm objective lens and has a paltry overall length of just 10.9″. Moreover, the entire…
