Spiderdude Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 What's the norm for taking cartridges out with you. Do you leave them boxed in your carry bag, or just loose in the bag? I appreciate bit of an odd question, but is there any reason not to just have them loose in the bag? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattr Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 What's the norm for taking cartridges out with you. Do you leave them boxed in your carry bag, or just loose in the bag? I appreciate bit of an odd question, but is there any reason not to just have them loose in the bag? I leave them boxed - for no other reason than my cartridge bag takes exactly 4 boxes - with room for my license, my gloves and a pen for scorecards... I think if I emptied them in - 100 would probably take up more room than when neatly arranged in boxes. Your mileage may vary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate bit of an odd question, but is there any reason not to just have them loose in the bag? If i'm shooting a round of 50 sporting clays I just put a box and a bit loose in each pocket of my vest. If I'm out roost shooting I fill my pockets of my fleece. If I'm pigeon shooting I tear the lid off a box and put it by my feet or load straight from my cartridge bag. cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moors Man Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 Hi Everyone When clay shooting I carry 25 in skeet vest and the whole boxes are carried in my bag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timps Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 Used to be loose in the bag, but I would lose count of how many I had shot the week before so have no idea if there was 100 in or not for a comp. so now leave them in the boxes & empty the boxes in my skeet vest.

Spiderdude Posted March 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 Cheers for the replies, I know it was a bit of a daft question but thought I'd still ask. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 (edited) I leave them in the boxes in a range type bag,easier to load your pockets with 25 rip off the lid tip in done. See at a glance how many left the in bag. Did take my game cart bag once, emptied loads into it pain in ***** to fill pockets with them sticking out between your fingersas you pull hand out of the bag, ended up picking more off the floor than went into pocket.

chrispti Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 I use a hip pouch like one of these http://www.uttings.co.uk/Product/539/102611/beretta-victory-b1one-cartridge-pouch-green-ber-bs98119706/ They hold about 75 cartridges. If you need to carry a few more boxes then just add 1 0r 2 of these (or similar) to the pouch belt http://www.uttings.co.uk/Product/539/102702/browning-cimmaron-cartridge-box-holder-black-beige-121030094/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
