What Good to carry pre weighed BP in?..

[roundball]

That's the latest I've settled on...I’ve tried a number of different containers over the years to use as simple pocket reloads for smoothbores and these in the photo have given me the most satisfaction.

I would have preferred flip top lids but found them bulkier than these with the screw on lids...and while slower, at least for me my smoothbore hunting doesn’t require such fast reloads that screw on lids are a handicap.

I also use them to carry a couple pocket reloads of powder for my .62cal deer rifle as nobody makes commercial ones in that caliber...I don’t 'need' the longer ones to hold 100grns Goex 2F, but found that the longer ones have enough extra free space to make tipping / pouring the powder into a muzzle easy and spill proof. Smaller powder charges do fine in the smaller vials.

For me, I think these are sized just right for pocket or pouch reloads, they're strong / unbreakable plastic, they have air tight & water proof screw on lids, and I settled on two sizes:
5 ML and 10 ML capacities.

The short 5 ML vials hold 110grns of powder
I have 1+5/8oz shot in the 10 ML vials shown, taking up about ¾ of the space.
I got mine directly from Lane & JoAnn
(they normally sell them on EBay)

I recommend you try TC 4N1 loaders for 50 & 54 cal. For the little 32 caliber, I like the plastic tubes Northland fishing products sells. They are intended to put beads and fishing jigs in, but are great for black powder used in my Cherokee 32.
