Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting Mr. Murphy dropped by for the opener

I have a couple of these. They work really well. I use then on my encore pro hunters. They work good on the muzzleloader too. the zipper pouch is convenient to keep powder tube's, bullets, and primers. Its all right there on your butt stock.







They come with different inserts to adjust the height so you can get directly behind your scope.

I use this as well. Put the velcro ammo holder inside and zip closed.

They aren't pretty or sleek, but I could see the merit in the "stock purses", as some call them , on a tool-grade single shot like my stainless CVA.

I think I'm gonna order one for my 6.5 creedmoor. I gotta have a stock purse to go along with my man bun lol.

I've kept the little 5 cartridge inner packs that came with Speer Nitrex ammo.

keep a full one in my pack.

This.

I like the cheap uncle mike's one but have started taking them off the gun and just keeping them in my pocket or pack. Great way to keep your ammo quiet. I have rounds scattered all over the state of Montana from those things when they were on the butt stocks.

I will say the loops on the Butler Creek Slings tend to be pretty snug and hold up pretty well.

For the last few years I've used a Safari sling on my '06. It keeps the ammo sleeve upright so they're less apt to fall out if they get loose. That's no excuse for not getting a new one, though.

Not just the elastic ones either. I still have an old shotshell belt with suede loops. Those would stretch out in short order, but at least the loops have bottoms in them. They seem to recover in time, but that one’s in the Pappy Archives these days since I don’t carry 25 shells any more; pulls my pants down.

I've never used one of the cuffs, but then I've always been well aquainted with Mr. Murphy. My Mother's maiden name was Murphy

My preference is a Murray's on my belt.

As an FYI, I grabbed my two M77 rifles that have worn the same Uncle Mikes neoprene ammo sleeves for 6+ years and they both hold shells rather snugly. Would take some work for them to dump ammo. BUT, they are both belted magums with fatter cases. Another in 308 still holds ammo okay, but not nearly as tightly as the magnums, and the 308 sleeve is only 3-4 years old. These appear to work far better with fat cases.

And when stored empty.

Yep. Take the ammo out in the offseason.
