So really your minding not loading per se, which is a whole different kettle of fish.

 

Are they experienced, one assumes not at driven or they wouldn't require a minder.

 

I think its not a case of what to take as such but how to interact on the day, safety and etiquette etc.

 

On the what to take....

Ear plugs in case gun forgets

Plasters in case he traps your finger

Multitool for whatever

Lighter in case he smokes

Small hand towel to wipe his gun

Cleaning kit incl 20bore

Hip flask...you will need it 😁

I load/stuff/mind clients a few days each week.

 

Normal there's no issue with safety but you must first ascertain the guns experience you don't need to talk out of turn. Normally for me this a simple few questions "how many driven days do you shoot?

Been shooting long/ feeling confident"

 

Then when I hand them the gun it normally gives me a very good idea. As does discussing likely lines the birds may take.

 

Kit wise wear normal shooting rig. Plus 4s shirt tie ghillet and boot waterproof if needed

 

Headphones for me and the gun

Cap me and spare for gun

Spare tie

Cartridge bag

Mag stick

Empties bag

Leather gloves in case it's a sbs and gun does have one for front hand.

Cleaning kit

Spare slip

250 spare cartridges just in case gun forgets his unless estate is providing

In car first aide kit pintched fingers

 

Others have said flask I do t drink whilst working and won't encourage a gun to drink whilst shooting.

 

Business cards in case he needs lesson or a minder on other days
