Lubed patch in the field

[nhmoose]

Hunting all my reloads are in lubed patches in a ball block I wear around my neck.

i use a empty #11 primer tin for prelubed patches. most of the time i just have a strip of material hanging from my mouth getting moist.

Loading block for me. And no , the block doesn't remove the lube. You shouldn't need an excessive amount of grease , anyway.

In my rifles patch box. If you use a good lube, it's not "running" all over.

I hunt small game w/ an ugly .40 cal. Eastern Mtn. rifle , and it serves up stacked , thinly greased patches nicely from a grease hole in the butt stock. Gotta love the simplicity. My problem though , is a case of 74 yr. old fumble fingers. I use a bullet board for that reason on the hunt...............oldwood

Deer hunter only, I carry patches lubed with mink oil in a 35mm film container. I carry a second one with balls, both in my bag. It may take many days until I need a second shot. Speed of loading has never been an issue if a second shot is needed.
In the containers the patches stay dry and the balls dont rattle. If I were hunting small game I'd be using a loading block.

YUP - since I shoot a very wide variety of stuff - I stay prepared - prelubed with mink from TOTW. Very handy and small enough to be taken in your hunting bag.

I have a few ways. I keep a couple straps of ticking tied to the bag. Lube it before heading out. Also carry a few empty(cleaned) Skoal cans with dry or lubed patches. And sometimes carry a tin of solid lube as well. Just whatever I feel like. I don't do speedloaders simply because with big game(southeastern big game) one shot is enough. When I shoot a deer or pig I'm not metaphorically racking another round into the chamber quick like. I'm just waiting for them to die for sure for a few minutes. That might sound bragadocious, but so far I've been lucky not to have to chase. Also, I'm not taking more than 10 roundballs into the woods for real hunting. At best I could see me using 1-5 if I killed two deer and broke my leg than needed to fire three signal shots.

Really whatever works best for you. I do carry little stainless pill carriers for premeasured smoothbore shot. They are amazingly convenient. Unless you are running they don't rattle despite the material. Available at Wally world.
