When I first started shooting blackpowder 20+ years ago my Possibles Bag had more in it than my wife has in her purse but thru the years it has really thinned out. I now only carry a Possibles Bag during Flintlock season and mostly to stay a little traditional in my Gortex. LOL My inline accessories hang around my neck and in my pockets. Encore28

I don't carry one for rifle hunting. I have a bullet board with three patched balls that hangs around my neck. The ball starter is attached to it. A belt pouch with three vials of premeasured powder, a paper clip (vent pick) and extra flint and leather are in the belt pouch (3in x 3 in) My priming tool also hangs on a leather strap around my neck. but is slipped into a pocket. The leather strap can be pulled on to pull it out.
I do carry one for smooth bore hunting. Just too many things to carry at one time. Powder is still pre measured out, but wads and shot are carried in possible bag.

Just have a small belt bag and usually don't even take that into the woods. Instead, I stuff 2 or 3 tubes of premeasured charges, one tube with a few conicals, and a capper in my pockets. In the truck, which is never all that far away these days, I keep a small tackle box with a few essentials for light maintenance and a few more loads. I even leave my knife in the truck, that thang'll jinx me.

Okay...........When I civil war reenacted we used tompions in the end of the barrel when it rained. Dangerous if the re-enactor forgot it was there and launched it down range."Biily Bob! Whats thet stickinouta yur forhed? Looks lika spikit fur a still" Today we can use electric tape or a condom if it is raining. No need to remove when firing. If the muzzleloader is not fired. Condom can be reused(The only time I would say this is ok to reuse a condom) Truth or dare?
