chuck123wapati Report post Posted October 7, 2023 Or what ever you want to call em. I made a couple, they aren't much to look at and my camera is weirding out, it took these two blurry pics then said the chip was write protected. The first one i made is the dog eared one, the second one came out better. No dye just feibings golden mink oil. the splotchy-ness will even out as the oil penetrates and they will get a nice tan out in the woods. once i get back I will clean up the pattern, make some minor adjustments and some for different calibers then they will be saleable.

Frodo Report post Posted October 8, 2023 My rifle only holds Five also, you made a 10 round pouch that will last you all weekend . I like that idea very much most of the hunters that buy mine are sick and tired of three cheap spandex thing on the rifle butt , the holes stretch out and you lose ammo in the woods Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MarshalWill Report post Posted October 8, 2023 I like your 10-rd pouches. They are a good design.. They're reminiscent of an M1876 McKeever Cartridge Box. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Honestly, I think i like your version better, Chuck, nice and compact, and well put together. We dont have anything that requires shells of that size, so... not big enough for the shotgun (that would get rather bulky quickly), and far too big for the savage .22, lol - for the handguns, i think i would rather just have 2nd clips...

That went right over my head! Thank you. a shot gun holds three a double barrel two so I think mine would work well made to hold four or six, they would be awesome shooting skeet at the range with a double. . 22s and small handguns prolly not. now big revolvers 44 mag or larger maybe. I'll be experimenting this winter for sure. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chuck123wapati Report post Posted October 10, 2023 had to make another for my son, this one is for 308s and I finished it a bit better, well I put some edge coat on it and burnished it some lol. notice one stitch to long on one side lol. shhh don't tell him.

I can handle it if i have to, but dang my shoulder is sore for a week afterwards, LOL the .22 is just a lot easier for me 16 hours ago, chuck123wapati said: notice one stitch to long on one side lol. shhh don't tell him. i wont tell if you dont tell, LOL seriously tho, it looks fine and I am sure he will get many years of use from it.
