Default How to carry reloads

How is everyone carrying reloads while hunting? I carry a couple in
the red speed loaders-do not remember name-they work but are not real handy.

I use the TC speed loaders. I carry 6. And a few extra 209's for cold fingers.

In the past I have used the tubes that come with the blister packs of T7 pellets. I cut them to length to fit a primer, my bullet/sabot, and two pellets. I put a small piece of tape over it just in case. I also used these for holding premeasured loose powder loads when hunting with my little .32.

Three Lane' tube filled with powder, and one Lane' tube filled with 3 bullet/sabot. One of these TC chingadero for to hold primer, and to push the ramrod down the barrel.

I do the exact same as you do. Back when I used to buy the Pellets in the Plastic tubes I saved em all. But after I have them filled with bullet/sabot and powder I take a small piece of Masking Tape and seal the end so the cap does'nt fall off. I also have 2 Primers in each one just in case I drop one in a Hurry to reload.
Plus I always have one in my top shirt pocket for fast removal.

A 209 primer will fit nicely into the screw hole in the pad on our stock.

This is what I do when I hunt with my Wolf. Other then that, I use lanes tubes. I get the big tubes, and drop a powerbelt in first, followed by 80 grains of 777 powder, works great.

exactly what i do always end up dropping the darn thing trying to get it in the plug in a hurry when theres another deer just standing there after you bang flop the first one nice to have them right there and handy, already used one of them this season

as for everything else i have a side bag with tubes of powder remeasured ready to pour down the barrel with the bullets lose in there, bottom pockets for the breech plug tool, luckily ive never had to use it when i have it with me, but when i dont i seem to get the ramrod stuck in the barrel swabbing it out in the tree
