What do you guys prefere?

First of all, with elastic or leather loops for the cartriges?

Open or with a flap to cover the shells?

Do you like seperate holders that slide onto a belt, "integrated" types where the belt itself has loops,
buttstock shell holders, or any other kind that's slipped my mind at the moment?

And then how many shells should it hold?

Or do you like to just have the cartridges loose in your pocket?

I have a couple of cartridge holders that fit 5 rounds each. It's the kind that slides onto a belt and has a flap that encloses it.
Got them when I was in London years ago and visited H&H. You'd think these would be a quality product. Unfortunatly this isn't so... The leather quickly became very loose, so loose that the cartridges can fall out if the flap isn't closed. Which is the second problem. The flap was secured down with the use of brass studs. These were total crap and quickly dissapeared while hunting... So now the flap just flaps!

So after this experiance, I've been thinking of getting something with elastic to hold the rounds, and a button to hold the flap closed. Or maybe I was just unlucky and another producer makes a better simular product that won't be a waste of money?
