Rifle Cartridge Pens

These pens incorporate a rifle cartridge in their design I at present do several different calibers everything from a 7.62x39 to a 50cal but can most any cartridge. I commonly use deer antler water buffalo horn or camouflage acrylics for the top half of the pens but I can of course use other materials as requested.

The .308 Winchester is a rifle cartridge and is the commercial cartridge upon which the military 7.62x51mm NATO centerfire cartridge is based. The .308 Winchester was introduced in 1952, two years prior to the NATO adoption of the 7.62x51mm NATO T65. Winchester branded the cartridge and introduced it to the commercial hunting market as the .308 Winchester. Winchester's Model 70 and Model 88 rifles were subsequently chambered for the new cartridge. Since then, the .308 Winchester has become the most popular short-action, big-game hunting cartridge worldwide. It is also commonly used for civilian target shooting, military sniping, and police sharpshooting.
