Rifle Round Holder
Quick access to ammunition transforms bolt action and break action shooting scenarios. When magazine capacity restrictions or equipment limitations create challenges, having spare rounds positioned right at the breach eliminates fumbling and delays. Our round holder family delivers this capability through secure rail-mounted storage that grips ammunition by case body diameter.

The Guide
Choose Your Mount Type
Select based on your rail system configuration. M-LOK provides direct attachment to M-LOK slots, while Picatinny mounts to standard 1913 rails.
- M-LOK for modern modular rail systems
- Picatinny for traditional 1913 rails
- CVA Scout users need Picatinny versions
Determine Your Size Category
Measure your cartridge case diameter at the widest point. Proper fit ensures secure retention without binding during extraction.
- Intermediate: .223 Remington / 5.56 NATO, 300 Blackout, and .30-30 Winchester
- Large: 6.5 Creedmoor, 7.62×51 NATO / .308 Winchester, .30-06 Springfield, .444 Marlin, .450 Bushmaster, .45-70 Government, .44 Magnum, .45 Colt, .454 Casull, and .410 bore shotgun shells
- Case diameter at location of grip finger determines fit, not cartridge length
Match to Your Application
Consider your primary use case when selecting. Break action applications benefit from slim profiles, while bolt actions can accommodate various sizes.
- CVA Scout requires specific Picatinny versions for slim profile
- Hunting applications prioritize quick access positioning
- Competition use benefits from secure retention during movement
Verify Rail Compatibility
Ensure adequate rail space and clearance around the mounting area. Consider optics, other accessories, and stock configuration when planning placement.
- Check for interference with existing accessories
- Verify rail length accommodates holder dimensions
- Consider optimal positioning for your shooting style
Field manual
How do I know which size category fits my cartridges?
Measure the case diameter at the widest point of your cartridge. Intermediate holders secure case diameters from 0.375 to 0.42 inches, handling everything .223 Remington / 5.56 NATO, 300 Blackout, and .30-30 Winchester. Large holders accommodate 0.43 to 0.51 inch cases, including 6.5 Creedmoor, 7.62×51 NATO / .308 Winchester, .30-06 Springfield, .444 Marlin, .450 Bushmaster, .45-70 Government, .44 Magnum, .45 Colt, .454 Casull, and .410 bore shotgun shells. The holder grips by case body diameter, so cartridge length does not affect compatibility.
Will the round holder work with my CVA Scout?
Yes, but you need the specific Picatinny versions designed for slim profile break action applications. The CVA Picatinny round holders maintain the streamlined design essential for break action platforms while providing secure ammunition storage. Choose Intermediate for smaller cartridges or Large for magnum applications based on your cartridge case diameter.
How secure is the retention system during use?
The retention system grips ammunition by case body diameter and has been tested to prevent rounds from falling out during normal use and movement. The design allows smooth extraction when you need the round while maintaining secure hold during shooting activities. This balance ensures reliability without binding when quick access is required.
Can I mount multiple round holders on the same rail?
Yes, if you have sufficient rail space and proper clearance between mounting points. Consider the dimensions of each holder and verify no interference with optics, other accessories, or stock configuration. Multiple holders can provide storage for different cartridge types or additional capacity for extended sessions.
What is the difference between M-LOK and Picatinny versions?
M-LOK versions attach directly to M-LOK slots using the modular mounting system, while Picatinny versions mount to standard 1913 rails. Both provide the same ammunition retention and access features. Choose based on your rail system configuration, with M-LOK for modern modular systems and Picatinny for traditional rails or specific applications like CVA Scout compatibility.
How do I position the round holder for optimal access?
Mount the holder where you can naturally reach without breaking shooting position or losing sight picture. For bolt actions, position near the action for smooth cycling. For break actions, place within easy reach of your support hand when opening the action. Consider your shooting style and rail space when determining optimal placement for quick, natural access.
Will the holder interfere with my existing accessories?
Check dimensions and clearance requirements before mounting. Round holders are designed with compact profiles, but verify no interference with optics, bipods, or other rail-mounted accessories. The slim profile of CVA Picatinny versions specifically addresses clearance concerns for break action applications. Plan your rail layout to accommodate all accessories with proper spacing.
Can the round holder handle different cartridge lengths in the same size category?
Yes, the holder grips by case diameter rather than cartridge length, so various lengths within the same diameter range will fit securely. For example, the Large category accommodates both .308 Winchester and .45-70 Government despite their different lengths. This diameter-based system provides consistent retention across diverse cartridge types within each size category.
