    Ammunition

    How much ammunition do you take when out hunting?

    - Rifle and Shotgun?

    In center fire around 14, that's what fits in the pouch, rimfire 100. You can go through that stuff PDQ
    Take a kid hunting its more rewarding than shooting an animal yourself!!

    If I'm going for a walk from the house, usually 4 or 5 rounds, if I'm driving somewhere or backpacking usually 10 rounds.

    I usually pack enough to fill the mag twice. Better to have it and not need it then to need it and not have it.

    If I'm up in camp usually at least a box of what I'm hunting with. I've had a scope knocked out of zero and it usually takes a couple groups to get it back on.

    Always have enuf , my old man was hunting up north and there driving down a RD , when he saw a hunter flagging him down , they pulled over the and hunter could barelly talk but he said " I got a big bull down , im out of ammo , need help ,will give you a quarter" so they quickly got up to the bull about 15'yrds off the RD and dad fired the finishing shot , the bull was left suffering for about 30minutes with 2 broken front shoulders , the guy ran out and never could finish it off , So I always carry a Box (20) so I know I will be able to finish the job.
