Keeping it together.

[Rebel bull]

I'm in the surplus ammo box I use the same box for all of my shooting the only thing that ever changes is the ball diameter when I go to a multiple gun shoot I just add a additional box of appropriate sized balls. all of my guns use the same patching same black same caps/flints just my way of getting it done for the last 30 years

I looked at them today I thought they maybe too small. I’ll have to take another look.

If you wish to carry powder or other larger items with you, this box is too small.
Its pretty good for jags, patches, flints, caps, CO2 bottles, etc.

Alright everyone how in the world do you keep all your stuff organized. I’m at a loss between all the calibers, bits and pieces. Do you keep powder with each box or what you are using. Help or suggestions thank you for your time.

I have a separate box for each caliber. I bought cheap tool boxes. This will keep supplies separate and you can take the box to the range or fill your pouch(s) when you go hunting.

I think its irresponsible not to have too much stuff. You never know when you or a friend is going to need it?

Thanks. Now I feel better.

Other than the Plano tackle box, I use the Law Enforcement Filing system or "COP" as it is known.

If you can't find that thing you're looking for ...Check Other Pile..."Cop".

Piles may or may not be just one thing, mostly start out as such, but in a few weeks stuff gets scrambled. Only the tackle box is sacred ...same things there for the last 40 years ...some of which no one's ever needed, but HEY ..firecracker fuze might just save the day, best keep that. Empty percussion cap box? Ya never know ...Anyway - my hat's off to organized people. They seldom have to borrow anything from me.

I use a large hard-side brief case for ALL my black powder stuff from targets to tools, balls to Ballistol. Except for what is in the possibles bags; one bag for each gun and each bag/gun ready to go.

I am with Sheriff John. dedicated COP for Muzzleloaders. another for unmentionables. most piles confined to drawers in the garage. except for the one under the display cabinet in the entry. and the one in the closet of the "office". and the one in the battery room. and the two or three in the garage..

Old guys can't even remember passwords, let alone where we left a specific spare wedge for a rifle not fired in 20 years. Firecracker fuze?..I know exactly where that's located. Round balls look really similar when those found beneath/behind stuff are tossed into the same ammo can... for years.

If you've lost a gun part, accessory, or any particular muzzleloading thing...get on the internet and order a replacement. Sometimes, even before the new one arrives, you will find the thing.

I was looking through one of my extra boxes the other day for an old rear sight I thought I used to have. Didn’t find it, but did find an extra wedge I’d made for a TC Hawken years ago and never used.
