carrying 22 ammo conveniently

[mcdaniel.mac]

Pill bottles for loose, 40mm surplus grenade pouch for 10/22 rotary mags, cheap airsoft 1911 mag pouches (too small for real 1911 mags) for Ruger MK mags.

[Lloyd Smale]

yup today for the price of the 10 22 shells you can about buy a clip to put them in!!!!!!!!!!!

MANY extra FULL clips.

Loose ones go in Altoid metal tins.

Works for me.......when I DO shoot 22's these daze.

If you MUST have an ammo box, I also use a Berry's 9mm hinged plastic box. You can alternate base / nose to get a bunch in there! Two 22's per hole. Take all the "bases up" first, then you can easily get ahold of the "noses up" ones left. I get at least 100 rounds in a box.

Belt clip , swivels, just tip to get single rounds or pellets. Easy to make. The one for pellets holds about 100 .22 pellets, the larger one holds 50 .22 LR.

paralaska, I LIKE those! Got some leather and a new project now, Thanks for the idea.

I used to always have loose .22lr in my pockets.

Now since Ruger came out with their 25 round BX mags I just grab one or 2 of those.
I also found a small plastic plate that lets you mount 2 10 shot mags back to back. That is the ultimate in handy.
It was just a friction fit, ended up padding vise jaws to get thems squeezed all the way in, but it is very convenient, and inexpensive.

I just use a plastic cci mini mag box

I use ziplock snack size bags. They are about 1/3 the size of a sandwich bag. As a kid I could reach into any jacket pocket and find .22 lr. anytime! haha or the floorboard of my truck or the trunk of the car or in both top drawers of my dresser!

Someone used to make a small bell shaped pouch for 22 ammo. I think it was one of the holster makers. I had one when I was younger....40+ years ago, but don't know what happened to it.

I think those were from Safariland, made from their green elk suede. A bit of a search turned up nada, though.

For the past 30 years or so most of my hunting and fishing trips have included a S&W Model 34 .22LR revolver, handy for any edible critters that come along. I have also taken a 2 lb. trout with it once, and several rattlesnakes. Box of .22LR goes in another vest pocket, but I seldom shoot more than a few rounds in the field.

[ZmanWakeForest]

I like the round, plastic snuff cans....they'll hold 20-30 rds pretty easily, and keep it dry / together. A bit of cotton/pillow stuffing keeps the rattle to a minimum as well.

Yep, that's how I work with them too!!

MTM flat wallet shaped cases for me 30 rounds in each one all snapped in the same direction. Makes loading much faster and if your reloading in the field you need speed and easy carry.

Sierra bullet boxes hold 80 and don't open till you open them.

An Indian friend I have in Texas made me a tie on leather butt cuff with a raised "Pouch" designed to hold one box of 50 .22lr cartridges. Same brand in the tubular magazine and same brand in box contained in pouch.

I just put a box or part of box in pocket when out walking and plinking or hunting. The Old fieldmaster holds a lot and usually don't have to load much unless there are lots of squirrels, bunnies and birds and I'm having a bad day. LOL, 10

[nagantguy]

Yep, that's how I work with them too!!

Exactly what I had to add, chew tin with some cotton balls, water tight, and easy to carry/get to.

[Mk42gunner]

It has been a few years but I usually just dumped a few rounds in my right front pants pocket. If it was winter, the right hand coat pocket. When I was a kid, I mostly used single shot bolt actions, so the right hand pocket made it easier to reach the next round.

With tube or box magazines, the location of spare rounds didn't matter as much; but the round count per squirrel or rabbit seemed to go up.

I use the flip top vitamin bottles.

[shtur]

I tan the gonad sacks from elk and cut a slit for the belt and give them to my friends to carry .22 ammo.

That's a good idea! I may make one to give my daughter's boyfriend
