Helsing Report post Posted October 30, 2012 Nice! In what order do you do the shell loops? Stitch first, then wet, push in shells and let dry? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hubert1979 Report post Posted October 30, 2012 Nice! In what order do you do the shell loops? Stitch first, then wet, push in shells and let dry? Actually this was my first one. Since I had no idea what the spacing was going to be I did it like this. 1. wet the leather. 2 stitched the first line. 3. formed around the bullet then stiched the line on the other side. I made reference lines so it stayed straight. Probably wasn't the best way but it worked. Im doing another one for a friend and I used this one as a template. Since he uses the same calibre rifle. Im also going to use rivets. And do a liner. Hopefully it works out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
