Hunters Specialties 00685 Buttstock Shell Holder 5-Round Black

The Hunters Specialties 00685 Buttstock Shell Holder transforms any shotgun into a faster-reloading platform by keeping five additional shells within instant reach. This elastic shell carrier attaches securely to most shotgun buttstocks without permanent modification or tools. Quick access to backup ammunition can make the difference between a successful hunt and missed opportunities.

What Makes This Different

Unlike rigid shell holders that can crack in cold weather, this elastic design maintains flexibility across temperature extremes while providing secure shell retention. The low-profile construction won't snag on clothing or vegetation during field use. The elastic material grips shells firmly enough to prevent loss during vigorous activity yet allows smooth, quiet extraction when speed matters.

Key Features

• Holds five 12-gauge or 20-gauge shotgun shells in individual elastic loops
• Stretches to fit most shotgun buttstock configurations without modification
• Durable black elastic construction resists weather and UV degradation
• Silent shell extraction prevents noise that could spook game
• Ambidextrous design accommodates both left and right-handed shooters
• Weighs less than 2 ounces to avoid affecting gun balance
• Compatible with synthetic and wood shotgun stocks

Field testing shows the elastic loops maintain proper tension after thousands of loading cycles while the material resists tearing from sharp shell rims. The holder performs reliably in waterfowl hunting conditions where moisture and temperature fluctuations challenge equipment durability. Turkey hunters benefit from the silent shell access during critical moments when movement must remain minimal. The compact profile works equally well for sporting clays competitors who need fast follow-up shots.
