Default RE: what do you take into the field with you???

Well, I usually go in "our" flint-only season so for the gun....

2 tins (old Pellet Gun ammo tins)
1 with dry patches, 1 with Borebutter patches
1 small box (homemade, wood w/ leather joint)
spare flints, flint leather, cleaning jag, worm & puller
1 small bottle BP cleaner (large eyedropper bottle, maybe1 oz)
1 small Oil bottle, 1/2 oz
1 small "synthetic" rag
5 speed tubes with powder and bullet
Pan primer
Flint "tool ring" hanging off of my pack
(sm screwdriver head, pick, allen key, pan brush, flint hammer)
Cover for Lock

The rest of my stuff is the sameasany other time.
compass, water, "lunch", spare socks, etc.


P.S. For those who don't know this already.
Some of the "tins" that Pellet gun ammo come in are the same size as 45-50 cal patches and will hold a whole bunch of them nicely. Some also come in screw-top styles so they close nice and tight for use with pre-treated patches.
