Lanes tubes , and back pack for every thing else/Ed

 

[MrTom]

I have a range box that has anything I might need there including the bullets and primers and sabots and any tools for basically all of my muzzleloaders. The powder charges travel in 25 pre-weighed tubes in an ammo box designed for 12 gauge shotgun shells with a 20 gauge insert that holds the vials very nicely, different box for each different charge weight. In the field while hunting I carry bullet/sabots in one of the same tubes that's slightly longer, three to a tube. These and the appropriate powder charges go into a zip-lock baggie that also holds a primer caddy filled with primers plus a half-dozen spare primers in another tube. These field items travel in a hunting coat pocket.

Shirt pocket, vest pocket, coat pocket.

 

[michiganmuzzy]

Dry socks, extra hoodie, food, snaks, water, flashlight, batteries, toe warmers, rope, extra knife and T.P. in the pack.
Knife & ROA on my belt. Car keys and knife in a deep pocket.

Oh yeah, speedloaders are on a cord necklace.

WWII surplus gas mask bag for M/L shotgun hunting. Waterfowling sees the cellphone in a zip-lock bag (experience is a great teacher).M/L rifle deer hunting, I like the plastic "speed loaders" that hold powder, patched round ball, and cap. Different colors for different calibers are nice. Multi-tool and a sharpened shiv on my belt.

An MRE, thermos of coffee, spare pack of Kools, and a lighter - good for all day.

Small possibles bag - lanes tubes with powder and saboted bullets, patches, primers in carrier, rubber barrel caps for rainy snowy days, plug wrench, picks . It’s small and over the shoulder available if needed. Now the back pack that’s another matter.

I’ve been carrying a pack that’s way too big for what I carry hunting, so I recently bought a Maxpedition Jumbo Versipack. I haven’t used it yet, but I think it’s going to be perfect for what I carry to the stand.

I carried way too much for years before i started paying attn to what i actually NEEDED or USED.

I completely agree. Binos, rangefinder, flashlight, a water bottle, and extra ammo is all I carry most of the time for rifle or muzzleloader. I carry a few more “tools” when crossbow hunting.

I found a small folding chair with a back pack combo that I carry mostly now. I can sit without finding a stump or log. It holds what I need to be comfortable and take care of a deer after the kill.

I would like to see that if youve got pics. I sometimes will strap a tripod chair to my pack.

Mine is similar, but much older, so I'm sure they have upgraded them.

 

[JIMYJAC]

The older I get the less I want to carry. If tree stand hunting I carry my Lone Wolf, fanny pack strapped to stand, water, knife headlamp, saw, clippers, water and snacks. I also have a light weight tree seat I use at times. If I do not need it it is not coming along.

 

[Omega218r]

I have a blaze orange backpack for larger items and a Crown Royal bag as a possibles bag

 

[deermanok]

This is pretty much all I carry in the woods for my muzzleloading things.

 

[MrTom]

Is the hammer used as a temple tapper for those who creep in on your hot spot?

Lol, never thought of it that way but it could work.

 

[yoyodoc]

In my fanny pack: premeasured powder charges in plastic test tubes, bullets, 5 spare primers, short starter Around my neck: capper. Cargo pocket right license, left wallet. possibles bag: rope, buck buster, orange trail tape, space blanket, water, snack, TP, candle, ceremonial Hopi medicine corn (yes, really), miniature shovel (read deuternomy) which might look like a 9" ice cream paddle, head lamp, and a knife, which is now a folding scalpel with replaceable blades.

Belt: GPS.
about 20 years ago I counted 5 knives after a hunt, only one of which I used and I quit dragging those around. About that time I quit bringing more than 5 shots worth of ammo. But I still carried extra primers: they're light and they tend to drop.
Depending on which rifle I have I might have a sidelock multitool or breechplug equipment.
Frequently I'll have 10 alcohol swabs which serve as a quick clean when combined with a jag.

 

[phalanx]

Wow! I feel under dressed! In a small backpack, knife, extra shirt, Kindle for reading, cell phone, charger and cable, license, range finder (not always), grunt tube and a knife In my pocket, 3 lanes tubes, 2 with powder and the 3rd with bullets. During MZ season a camo hat goes in the bag and a neck gaiter. During MZ season here in VA we have to wear orange to our stand.
