craigsterI've made a few over the years. I just cut a brass fishing barrel swivel in half and solder it in the primer pocket. JB Weld would probably work also.

That's what I used when I made some out of S&W 500 brass. I just poked the kotter pin through the flash hole and spread it apart. Set the case on top of the shell holder and seated the bullet then attached the ring.

Tyler KempI just drilled through both sides of the case wall and threaded through there. I now carry a 50 BMG keychain that gets lots of odd looks!
