When out in the field hunting, its usually 4 or 5 speed loaders, primers for the 5 charges and a few spares just incase. thats with an inline. With my flintlock i take my possibles bag with 4 speed loaders, extra flints, knapping hammer and my little ring of tools, jaw tightener,screw driver,cleaning / patch puller jag. And of course around my neck is always my 4f priming powder dispenser. What muzzleloader do you have?

I carry 4 speed loaders, a short starter, in line primer tool for the rifle.
A sandwich bag with a few paper towels and wet ones along with a small hunk of bees wax and a lighter, for me.
