I am not affiliated with the Absaroka Kid.. nor do I benefit from any business he may get.
I'm just a happy customer.

He started selling on eBay, and became well known as the premier source of Tooled Leather for North American Arms Revolvers.
He has expanded his offerings and now has a website, in addition to eBay:
https://absarokakid.com/

He had listed an Ammo Carrier for the Taurus Judge that carried 6 each .45 Colt and .410.
Shown in the first two pics.

I wanted a different setup, so after a few idea exchanges, he made a prototype. It was perfect! And I now own it!
Shown in the last three pics.

He doesn't have any currently listed, but all of my orders with him have been made and shipped within a day or two. He has a Rifle Ammo Pouch currently listed for for $65... check with him for current pricing on a CJ Pouch.

I like it
One of those would be nice for my 30-30 winchester and 30 carbine blackhawk.

He currently has two listed for the .260... one with belt loop... one with belt clip:

The rim on the 30-30 is 0.0332" larger than the .260, so might be a little crowded.
Your .30 Carbine would need smaller pockets... or go with loops.

I haven't bought from him in awhile, but he used to be real easy to deal with on custom orders.

The leather I have bought from him, I consider as well made and finished as work I've seen from big name Gun Leather companies. However, his pricing is a lot more affordable!
And those big name companies only offer what's in their catalog!

Something just clicked...

You want a similar dual cartridge Ammo Carrier with loops?

In that case, contact him with your needs, and request a quote.

i just bought a Oklahoma leather cartridge belt in 38 caliber.
it fits both 30-30 and 30 carbine real good.

I had some Oklahoma Leather back when I was doing CAS.
(I'm the Ugly one in Brown on the Left!) :oops:
I'm surprised the loops on their belt would have that much range!

Forgive me... I'm a Retired Machinist (among other hats!)
I can get real Anal about Dimensions! :lol:

I looked up the SAAMI Specs for the three cartridges, for a Case Diameter Comparison.

I believe how i got away with it, is because the loops were new and had not been stretched yet.
Brand new they are tight fitting.
So i took a chance and ordered the 38 caliber cartridge belt, hoping it would be a nice go between.
the 30-30 fit tight and the 30 carbine fit snug.

The belt has 40 loops, so i can carry 20 of each
