This is what I've been spending most of my free time working on for the last few weekends. The quality has gotten better on each of them and now I've got it down to a very precise operation. I'm using a 7/8" loop per shell and 1 3/8" elastic per loop measurement and sewing velcro on the back instead of using the adhesive kind. My original design was free hand and so the spacing between the shells are inconsistent and the loops vary slightly in size. The sew-on velcro actually seems to work better than the industrial adhesive stuff I was gluing on. I'm obviously still using the adhesive side on the gun and sew-on side on the card.
Most recent (and best) on the bottom. 2 rounders and 6 rounders. The first few I made were done with a different nylon backing and wouldn't lay flat when loaded. The most recent cards have the stiffer nylon and don't warp when the shells are loaded. Also, I think the tighter spacing will help with the retention of the shells. If they're all pressed up against each other then it will be harder to knock them loose. I'm considering making belt loop variations and maybe some MOLLE compatible stuff too. Thoughts?
