Thanks for the kind words fellas
you did a BANG up job, pardon the pun!
That is nice!!! I like the weave pattern on the strap, too.
It does my heart good to see people making their own stuff, rather than buying it.
The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!

Nice work, Bill !
This is the 1st bag I made, almost 30 years ago.

Real neat, I like the strap too.
Pietro, yours is neat too.
I made one a month ago, didn't turn out to bad. I didnt have the right leather 4 oz and too soft. I tride to load pics but im doing something wrong. I used to be able to load pics but this new computer is not cooperating with me. That's a nice bag you made.
