I bought a few old leather shot flasks, making sure the brass charger was intact, from ebay.

Then I had my brother, a craft shop boss in TDCJ, have me a few replacement leather flasks made. I now have 2 new leather shot flasks, with #8 & #6 shot. I carry them just as VM Starr said, and never have a problem.
 
I use a small about 1 lb. pouch with a strap and English style head for shot #6 or larger (use # 5 mostly really pattern well in my orginal SxS) But when using #7 1/2 switch to a pouch with an Irish style head that is adjustable from 1oz, 1 1/8, 1 1/4. Smaller shot falls thru English head when carried. I also use a double shot snake that is larger and load it with 2 different sizes of shot to switch loads in the field.
