[QUOTE="LoneTraveler, post: 2573391, member: 77249"] I was cleaning out old E-mails from my old computer and this came up. I have tried several ways to carry extra shells in the field. Seen a lot of ways other hunters carry extra ammo in field, As a wildlife officer for 34 years. Shells on the butt of a rifle light rifle, Changes the balance of the rifle, makes harder to hold steady in bad shooting positions. For my 338 WM and 300 WSM I have made 3 small leather pouches with snap closure. Each pouch is built to carry 4 shells snug with no rattle. Both rifles have 3 mag. and 1 in chamber capacity. I usually carry 1 in my pants pocket and the other 2 in back pack. With 4 shells loaded in rifle makes 16 rounds in the field. Keep plastic 20 round boxes in camp. Never liked a lot of shells on my person, On several canoe moose hunts in Canada. [/QUOTE]
