Thread: Playing with leather

@HNTMAD as requested, here is my first attempt at a 20 round 223 ammo pouch. I'm really pleased with the final result. Thanks for the tips and tricks. I'll be the first to admit it's a total copy of your work. Since I had one to use as a template, may as well start with the best. A complement I hope!

Regards,
Joel

Thanks Hamish! It's not perfect but I am very happy with it.

@hunter Al.7mm08 I have used a plastic insert from a box of PMC 223. It's the perfect size.

Yeah it would have no doubt been a bit easier to work with if I had. It's 3mm leather I got from NZ Leather Suppliers. I will make an 8 round pouch for my 7mm-08 when I get some free time.

Thanks,
Joel
