[QUOTE="Hoss50, post: 1952060, member: 109801"] 4 in the gun, 10 on the gun in the cheek rest holder, and a few in the pack. The most I have ever used is 3. My hunting buddy did an oops one year on a cow elk hunt. He had 3 in the gun. 10 in his pack. For the afternoon hunt he was not far from the truck so he left his pack behind. He saw elk. Ranged them at 275 and got a bad range. It was actually closer to 450. Fired 3 rounds missed all 3. He went to reload but had no more rounds... We didn't get an elk that year. I almost got a shot on one of the 2 in the group he shot as, but I couldn't get a clean shot, and it was 395 yards. I was marginally comfortable with that rifle at that range at the time so I elected to not take the shot. I would have had to thread the needle between some trees to make a front shoulder hit, and I just couldn't take the shot. [/QUOTE]
