[QUOTE="holechit, post: 2474324, member: 122492"] I am typically a fan of an enclosed stock pack to store a few extra rounds in. But, I do also really like the good ol fashioned cartridge loops mounted on some Velcro. Example: [ATTACH type="full" alt="2195F16D-FB22-46BD-9803-CEFDF6277ECD.jpeg"]349593[/ATTACH]Slap it on your rifle, rip it off, slap it onto Velcro on your bag, rip it off, slap it onto your headliner or sun visor in the truck. Put that sucker wherever. It works really well for me.
