Who makes this?
I have had two of these for several years. They are .22cal pellet holders.
I recently bored one out to hold .25cal.
They work great, you stap it to your gun tank turn the dail a bit and a pellet just falls out into your hand. You dont have to take your eye off that 2nd squirrel that went on the back side of the tree while you reload 😀
Anyway I want to stack the cylinders on the two I have to hold slugs, but I would like another still for standard pellets.
Where can I buy one? (the 2 I have came with a used gun I got a whil back)

Hey Lurker,
EDIT: It all depends on your scope and left/right mounting preference.
I’m using a set of “UTG Max Strength LE Grade Quick Detach Picatinny Scope Rings (2 Piece, 1-Inch Diam, 4-Screw Lo Profile)”.
With these I get 0.8″ of clearance between the scope tube and the pellet holder base itself (just right, I think). If you are going to mount these on the same side as your elevation/parallax adjustment knobs, be aware that the diameter of the holder is just slightly under 2.5″
FI, could you give a recommendation on what height Hi, Med, or Low rings may work?
I have both 1″ and 30mm scope tubes so ill need to order 2 sets anyway.
Having a slug mold made for my ST barrel. If they shoot well I’ll send you some to size it by.
Aaaaand, money shot.
One ring is pleeeenty strong enough.
To those that ordered already, this version of the cap can be acquired for $15 bucks shipped. These take quite a bit longer to print as well as use more material and supports.
New takers, I’m thinking $25 shipped, but please don’t hold me to that, I still have to figure out exactly how much more time & material these end up costing.
Hahaha, thanks tagdagger. I was thinking about the strap thing myself then I realized I’d need to source “straps” somewhere and most likely play seamstress, so, not quite. Where can I get my hands on some of those slugs? I like to have the actual item in-hand to ensure, you know, stuff works like it should.
Check out this latest one:
Alu: I know, I’d like to see this sucker done up in metal too. Once I get some breathing room I might try to get one done on the CNC but that I wouldn’t sell, only trade for gold bullion. 😉
Wow FI, You work fast! I was going to flip mine over so you could see how the strap attaches, but that rail attachment in your cad drawing is even better.
If your able to do one in aluminum. I want one for slugs.
for more strength a longer rail (I like picatinny also) all the way across the back side.
not only stronger attachment but 2 scope rings could be attached if the user desires maximum support.
Picatinny rail instead of dovetail and Im all over it. A rail type lug should be more than ample.
Bam, I think we could have a winner.
The question is, will such small bit of ABS hold up to all that leverage? Probably not to the degree that we’re hoping.
Now, if I center the rail on the spin axis and make the thing about half the size, we probably have something that could work.
I’ll let you know what shakes out.
a short piece of 11mm rail on the back perpendicular to the drop slot would be great. Then the user can supply his own scope ring of whatever size his scope is.
Or was that already suggested ❓
Before you suggest making the dispenser my focus wheel, remember I want the dispenser slot to stay on the bottom. The cap will remain stationary, the inside will turn.
Good to know. 😀
I don’t have turrets, and my Hawke has a wheel on the side.

Drill out the turret screw and tap it.
Yep. Bonded and bolted in place. Long story on that gun, it was nearly free.

FI,
Great, that gives me the minimum clearance and holder size so I can order up some rings.
