Thanks for the responses!

I like the idea of using it to hold the jag that I keep for unloading the gun. As for storing spare percussion nipples, I use stainless steel percussion nipples so I doubt I'll be needing spares soon. And why not, my ancestors would've done the same thing if they had been available then. I guess I'm just a pragmatic black powder shooter. In fact I only use black powder because I really like the KABOOM!, huge muzzle flame, and smoke.
