Bunch-a-stubs!  I just couldn't resist.  Not sure why.  One looks to be off of a high wall.

Can you make sizing dies out of them?

Candle holders?

Maybe I will cut threads and screw them all together into a longer barrel.  What could go wrong with that?

Re/decapper bodies….. hmmm.  Might work.  I am working on a copy of the Weber? One I got in 25 Hornet.  I am ready to mill the body.  The .062 tool steel and some stainless material for the handle is in the mail.  I have the two steel pieces that are parts of the pivot system done.   I was going to buy some 3/4” brass rod but the bank turned down my loan application.

My first thought is to track down the rifles that these cut-off pieces came from and reunite them with the rightful owner.

Man, I guess I shouldn't have thrown away so much. Just put it on Ebay, as gun related?

A couple front sights there, and what looks like 10-22 off cuts would save some trouble making dovetail bases.

All sorts of possibilities.  One looks like it is the action end off of a high wall.
