How many shells?

[Snoodsniper]

I always keep two in my vest in case I misplace the 3 that are usually in the gun. It happens....

[surehuntsalot]

5 in the gun, 5 in the vest, 10-20 in the truck
never know what might happen

[Izzyjoe]

I carry one in the pipe, which is a given, 3 in the mag. That way i can load a 7 1/2 birdshot in case of a snake attack! I also carry two rounds of 00 buck for yotes! I also carry a 22 pistol cause you never know!

[tomstopper]

3 in the gun and 2 in the vest

[WildTigerTrout]

3 in the gun and 5 in the vest. My vest has 5 loops so that's how many extras I carry.

[Blong]

2 in my gun(superstitious) 1 in my pocket.

[Timmer]

1 in the chamber, 2 in the magazine.  I've never shot more than once, so I don't know why I need all 3.

Maybe I should put that 3rd in my vest in case I ever forget to load the gun before I head into the field!

[gobbler777]

3 in gun, 2 in vest

[Gooserbat]

Seven, just because that's how I've always done it.

With the SBE; 1 in the chamber, 3 in the magazine, & 5 in the vest loops. 
With the single shot; 1 in the chamber, 1 in my right hand vest pocket, and 5 in the vest loops.

I usually just put 3 in the gun and go hunting.  There's usually more in the truck  (box of 5-10). I used to fill my vest full of extra shells but after a couple miles of walking you start looking for ways to lighten up the load.

[silvestris]

I have always carried two in my right front pants pocket with one in the Encore or three in the SBE, whichever I am carrying.  I did have to reload the Encore once for the coup de grace and was glad the extras were where they were supposed to be.
