Looking forward to it. A bit like finding out that Morse was Endeavour. Either way, I'm sure the reveal will be a characteristic Klenchy mix of a bucket of style with a large dash of crazy...

I’m afraid disappointment is assured as it will simply demonstrate how f******* ‘sad’ I am!

This sounds like a good idea but has already been done to a very high standard and supplied free by norma!
They used to supply their bullets a few years ago in really good holders that the bullets securely click into protecting the tip but can easily be released with one hand. Yours looks like it may take both hands. I carry my 6.5 x 47 in my jacket all the time though they would take 308/243. I guess they did them in other sizes.
They are fantastic but I only have three left so can't offer to give any away.
I'm sure there's some people on here with loads of them in the bottom of a draw!

Are they the ones with belt loops on each end?
Sure I’ve had some like that but can’t remember the make,
Ken.

Not quite true.
Hobbyist, and production come to that, FDM printers have to roll on and roll off the print. This leaves a seam, which internally, would cause the round to have a poor fit. The more expensive production SLS or MJF machines do not and as such are far better suited to complex internal profiles such as the design the OP has created.
I’ve heard ‘my mate has a printer and he can do that’ so many times and have not seen anything come from it that doesn’t look like a child has made it.
Good design also encompasses the materials and manufacture, which the OP has obviously done if he is using a MJF, as I suspect, and PA 12 nylon, which is not susceptible to water as it is not hydroscopic.
Yes you perhaps could get a pretender with a printer to do it cheaper, just like the Chinese do. Just remember that quality costs and if you buy cheap you buy twice.

Take it you mean Hygro? These damn typos 😉
