The Uncle Mike's 88493 Buttstock Shell Holder transforms any shotgun stock into an instant ammunition platform, keeping five rounds within immediate reach during critical moments. This neoprene shell carrier eliminates fumbling through pockets or pouches when seconds count. The elastic retention system secures shells firmly while allowing rapid access under stress.
What Makes This Different
Unlike rigid plastic holders that crack in cold weather, this neoprene construction maintains flexibility across temperature extremes from -20°F to 120°F. The wrap-around design conforms to both synthetic and wood stocks without permanent modification. The elastic loops stretch to accommodate various shell lengths from 2¾-inch to 3½-inch magnums while maintaining positive retention during movement.
Key Features
- Holds five shotgun shells in individual elastic loops for secure retention
- Black neoprene construction resists weather, oils, and solvents
- Hook and loop closure system fits most shotgun stock configurations
- Accommodates 12-gauge and 20-gauge shells from 2¾" to 3½" lengths

Field performance remains consistent whether hunting waterfowl in marsh conditions or running tactical drills. The neoprene material sheds moisture while maintaining grip even with wet hands. Law enforcement agencies appreciate the silent operation that won't announce position during entries. Hunters value the secure retention that prevents shell loss when navigating dense cover or climbing into tree stands.
