kninebirddog Report post Posted November 10, 2011 That is a hard one to answer as it depends on where I am and what I am shooting...Most hunts larger will carry the box with me...just so the ammo is protected from getting banged around but if I am varmit blasting in Texas//I carry as much as I can Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coueschaser3 Report post Posted November 10, 2011 Usually a full mag...so 3-5 depending on what rifle plus and extra 5. i figure if i need more i should stay at camp with the rest of my ammo. although my buddy shot a moose in montana this morning that took i believe 5 good shots from a 300 win with 180 accubonds.

Shooter McGavin Report post Posted November 10, 2011 I generally carry the full twenty out of the box into the field: 270WSM 140 gr 3 in the mag, 1 in the chamber 4 in (L) front pocket 4 in ® front pocket the remaining in fannypack FNP 9 MM 17 in gun back up mag filled to the brim in fannypack as well I always have another full box in my camping box back at camp for those just in case days. I wish I could say that on past hunts that I have never had to dip into those, but that would be a little white lie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pwrguy Report post Posted November 10, 2011 Funny you should ask, I usually only need 1 to 3.

For the first time in a long time I hiked back to my quad a couple of weeks ago..... with .....lets just leave it at not very many spares Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BowNut Report post Posted November 10, 2011 I usually have 4 in the mag and 5 or 6 on the shell holder on my stock. But if I empty the mag chances are I'm not going to the extras I'm going back to the range cuz something is wrong with me or the gun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
