How do you guys carry your extra ammo while in the woods?

I use the Uncle Mikes butt stock carriers with the flap on my rifles.The flap prevents cartridge loss, getting poked by plastic tipped bullets, etc.

I usually only put three rounds in them and hang a spare scope cover on the flap. So, 3-5 in the rifle magazine and another 3 in the stock carrier. Finally five more in a pocket or sleeve on my pack.
