30-06 cartridge. Primer hole was drilled to accept the twist holder from a cigar kit. Cap is black dyed box elder burl.

That looks very nice, Rick. I like that you made it a closed-end pen with a hidden clip. I once made a 30-06 pen with a cigar kit but kept the regular clip and finial. That made the whole pen appear a little top-heavy whereas yours looks well-balanced.

One nit (and it's not a major one) - the bullet looks like it's seated quite deep.

Keep up the good work,
Eric
