So what sort of equipment do people strap to themselves in order to load their percussion revolver for a Woods-Walk shoot? Say, as in ten steel targets of odd sizes & ranges, five shots each? Which shoot I am fantasing as a way to get some Non-Action percussion revolver competition going locally?
I can load my flintlock rifle just fine from pouch & horn, but a revolver? OK . . .think it would be just too wierd & Many would Laugh.
Don't know what Wyatt Earp did. Me, I am a wimpy modern guy using Oxyoke wads & little grease discs. Tonight I rigged up my flask with an old brass measure to set over the spout to keep odd sparks out of that wonderful Italian cut-off valve. Put bullets, capper & a zillion Oxyoke goodies into a leather belt pouch by blackpowderbags.com. Barring too much rain I'll try it out tomorrow with a Ruger OA in stainless.
Seems a touch half-***. Well, it is.
I see that westernstarleather.com has a black powder rig with a little "possibles pouch" attached. Little. Have any of you used it?
