Toilet paper? Excellent idea.

I ALWAYS keep a couple of rolls in zip-loc bags in my car. Why in the plastic bags?

There are few things more useless than WET toilet paper. The bag also holds the hand-cleaner.

Uses? (Apart from the obvious). See also entrenching tool and alcohol-gel hand cleaner; (Most of these gels, being alcohol-based, are also useful to help start the BBQ).

Toilet paper:

Wipe the dipstick (of the motor).

Disposable “spill” absorber.

“Emergency” wind flags.

Kindling for the post-shoot BBQ.

Clean-up after the BBQ.

A roll of toilet paper, you’ll be more than thankful you packed one if you ever need it.

Shell-Holder — If you don’t have calipers, you can use a shell-holder to check for excessive case expansion from hot loads. If a fired case doesn’t slip into the shell-holder easily, your load is definitely TOO HOT.

Ive found the Redding shell holders to especially tight tolerances.
