The past 2 seasons, i have hunted with an Omega, and an Accura, not at the same time. In my hunting coat/vest i carry 3 of Lane's tubes with 105g of BH209 in them, and one Lane's tube with 3 bullet/sabot. I carry 6 primer in a TC primer holder in my pants pocket. The ramrod is marked at the end so that i know when the bullet is seated. I have carried a a ball with a hole that fits the end of the ramrod, to push the bullet home, but it isn't really necessary; any old thing laying on the ground will work. This year i was thinking about giving this chingadero a try; it fits on the end of the ramrod to help one push the bullet home, and it would be easy to carry in a pocket, and it also would look after the primers.




Some days, i wish i would have brought something to eat; other days i wish i had something better than jerky to eat; some days i have eaten a good breakfast, and don't walk very far. I have forgotten my hunting knife, and had to gut deer with my pocket knife. I usually have a piece of a rope, and a binocular, and a small camera, and a gps, and things to make a fire with.
