Pistol caliber shell holder

[shootest]

Where can I find a rifle stock shell holder for pistol calibers? I would like one in .357 mag. All I see are rifle which are too long or for the .45 caliber size cartridges. Thanks!

"Shell holder" in my mind is a machined part that holds the base of the shell in a reloading press. Is that what you mean?

I think he means a buttstock style lace on or elastic to carry extra ammo. At least this is what I interpret it as.

back in the late 60's I wanted a rifle stock ammo holder for 44 Mags and couldn't find one .... I finally bought a made out of nylon (or that type of material) that was designed to hold shotgun shells .... I then sewed a seam down the center of each loop .... it served me well for many years

Shootest,

I've look at a variety of rifle stock shell holders when I had my .357 Magnum BBB. Very hard to find that accessory in a pistol caliber; most all are made for rifle calibers or shotshells.

If I wanted to carry some .357 cartridges on my rifle stock, I would have a simple DIY holder. In fact, this is one I would select to put on a Henry wood stock....I think the leather color looks great, and would go alongside the beautiful colors of Henry wood.

Although it's a slide belt carrier, I'd strap it on the rifle stock with paracord. And actually I think paracord would secure it better than a slip-over-the-stock holder. Would work just fine for me; might not be what you would want to do.

If you do find the specific product, I'd bet others on the Forum might be interested. Best on your search.

Would one for .30-30/.308 work for the .357?
For example: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07K45KKVW/re ... il_1?psc=1.

.30-30
Neck diameter: .330 in (8.4 mm)
Shoulder diameter: .401 in (10.2 mm)
Base diameter: .422 in (10.7 mm)
Rim diameter: .422 in (10.7 mm)
.357
Neck diameter: .379 in (9.6 mm)
Shoulder diameter: .379 in (9.6 mm)
Base diameter: .379 in (9.6 mm)
Rim diameter: .440 in (11.2 mm)

What you're looking for is called a Butt Cuff. Been thinking about getting one for my .41mag carbine. I've done business with the below for about 3 years and they produce the finest sturdiest gun leather I've ever run across. But if you're looking for fancy embossing, etc. you won't get it from them. They make serious working mans leather for serious shooters/hunters/guides.

Right here:

Diamond D Custom Leather. They ain't cheap tho.

Someone.. maybe RR...not sure posted some pricey, but beautiful ones maybe 2 or three weeks ago. Can't remember the web site. Thought I saved to favorites, but can't find now. Maybe whoever it was will come forward because I would like to have the link again. Some were even two tone versions. Really nice!

Might have been this guy. Also custom and VERY expensive. But any custom work ain't gonna be cheap no matter where you find it. I used to do a fair bit of custom woodwork, but I always had to explain to customers that I could not compete with Chinese imports or factory made stuff. My selling point was multi-generation level quality, but it came at a price. Lost a few who thought that I would make them something cheaper than they could buy at WallyWorld - not a snowballs chance in the nether regions. . It's the same with other crafts. Makes for a small market base, but I didn't care about that.

Thanks Gunny. That is a great site. If ya can't find something you like there something is wrong. What I was looking at though had matching sling and butt stock cover with shell holders. The one I liked was black basket weave pattern with brown stiching...I dunno.

Yeah, if you don't know what you are looking for, you'll never find it - in products or life.

There's a thing here, I feel obliged to mention. While many POTG are what I would call connoisseurs of all things firearms, there exists a larger population of those who only want something that goes bang and is uninterested and unaware of the more esoteric aspects of firearms and accessories such as we are discussing here. That's fine and actually I welcome even that level of interest even if it only extends as far as a $10 Uncle Mikes holster to hold a $200 mouse gun. But at the same time, I enjoy the finer things in life such as the custom gun leather that is being discussed here among other things such as fine Kentucky Bourbon (Blantons), a good book, or a beautiful woman.

I guess I'm hooked on faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, and more money.

Did you email them the specifics and a pic of your rifle? If not, you should, & let them know the model, and how many loops you want.
