Guys Altoid mint tins have a cult following in the bushcraft community for all kinds of uses. I’ve been looking for a way to carry a spare reload for my percussion revolvers in the field. I got some what called a “Dixie’s Tubes” sold off Dixie Gun Works. It’s a yellow rubber thing that holds a charge of powder, a ball, and a wad. Works great. Don’t have to carry a bulky flask, ball bag, etc. etc. and much more durable and water resistant than a paper cartridge.
I stuck 6 in an Altoid tin this afternoon along with a nipple’s prick, a small rag, and 10 percussion caps wrapped in a piece of alum. foil:
Slips in the back pocket like it’s not even there. If you’re looking to carry a reload in the field guys, try this. Hope this helps guys,
