My favourite hunting is after pigs, on foot. In the old days, I had an ammo belt, but in later years I found I had no need for a spare 20 rounds. Also, the ammo belt meant that cartridges often rubbed on my rifle stock. I like to carry a spare mag, which is in a pouch on a belt. I also have an Uncle Mikes Cartridge holder that holds 10 rounds, with them folded up inside, so nothing will rub. So that gives me 18 rounds total.
