How many reloads in the deer woods do you carry?
« on: December 15, 2005, 10:30:05 AM »
I carry 2-3 of the little plastic one-shot load holders in my pocket, and 4-5 primed orange holders, the Leatherman, a primer pick and my palm/starter rod in my pockets and leave the rest of my powder, bullets, and stuff in my truck while I'm out in the woods.

Just curious, how much do the rest of you carry in the woods?

I start with a loaded gun....and carry 2 extra loads with 3 loaded primer carriers.
I have shot twice and loaded the third, but its only happened once, and ive never ran completly out.

I carry my loaded gun and 3 or 4 pre-measured loads of loose powder in plastic 35mm film containers and all the rest of the "fixins" I need plus a primer carrier with extra primers in 2 different pockets so they don't rattle around and make noise....<><.... :grin:

I carry one load in the gun and two  in speed loaders and  three loaded primer carriers.

I load the gun at the truck and insert the primer carrier later when I am ready to hunt.

Used to be one. I got cocky over the years. The Huntsman has been so accurate. Well I tried to push through brush.. never good!!! My only remaining shot in the open worked. It's 3 or 4 from now on.
Also thought I was over buck fever decades ago. Not on 10 pointers!!
90gr 777, 295pb, HP... Sure looks like the breech is granular designed!!!

I carry three pre-measured loads when hunting- but to come to think of it, I never had to use them. :lol:

I carry 3 pre-measured loads and 4 primer carryers and the one load in the gun. Keep extra holders in the pickup just in case I would loose the 4 also carry 10 primers in a holder that I built. Zeak
