Been a while since I had a chance to get some time to complete any important parts but I have done some work on a Driver compartment ammo bin. Still need to add one more rack then paint and add the wood rests.
The shape of the pannier is incorrect so the box has been designed to account for this. Size is to scale based on David Byrdens. It accomodates six rounds of Mike Stannards Tiger ammo.

I will have to get back to you on that. Away on holiday at the moment. It can vary a bit though depending on batteries fitter. Blank firer fitted or not. Both quite heavy. Also how the suspension angle is set up will also make a difference.
