Not sure what ML you are using but if it is a CVA the butt pad has 2 small holes that perfectly hold 209 primers.
You can also punch small holes in a sling and insert primers, the same way you make a holder from a pc. of leather.

I went out once with my dad after school as a teenager and forgot boots to change into. He let me use his while he went out in his white sneakers. That sure made him easy to spot from a couple hundred yards away.

I've been pretty solid at remembering my hunting gear but I have walked back to my stand before got up the tree and realized I left my dip on the center console. Talk about heart breaking. Makes for a long sit or day if you push through it.
Dropped mine about an hour into a sit earlier this year. Feel like I could’ve made it longer if every time I looked down I couldn’t see it begging for me to climb down.

That's rough lol. That's the one down fall to saddle hunting for me. It's not an easy two seconds down and two seconds back up the tree. I try and keep a second can in my pack just for these times lol.
