I would have put this in a PM, but photos can't be attached there. I hope these screenshots help.

I'm from Texas, what is "grey poupon"? Is it something folks up north use to clean lead from their barrels?

This is the simple process I did with my re-loaders. Cut at the crimp (a good tubing cutter will work) clean up the end and back bevel the inside. Install the 9/16"x3/8"x1" rubber plug and cut the end off with a razor blade. Push this cut piece into the loader tube all the way to the bottom. It prevents you from loading 11 rounds. After loading, install an uncut rubber plug.

Finished the case for carrying 5 reloaders to the range. All I have to do is fold over the end flap, roll it up and secure with Velcro straps. Used it this last weekend at the range and even once had to use it for an unloader without any problems. Over kill to some, but then I own a Henry Big Boy 45. What more can I say.

Here is the final touch to my Henry project. Two Velcro straps 3/4" wide and sewn to a Henry patch. This secures the rolled case for the 5 loaders.
