Powder horns while hunting?

I must admit...I have one, but I think I have only taken it hunting once or twice.
It's a lot easier to fill a few glass vials from work with the correct charge and cork them up. Besides, I usually don't get that many shots while big game hunting (and I would imagine others don't as well). Still, it ads to the "look" of the traditional hunter.
Maybe while small game hunting I can see a use...more shots, ect. However, I have another problem with my horn...the stopper doesn't stay in place, and I end up leaving a trail of black powder through the woods! If you have a match, you can easily find out where Mr. 16 gauge is hunting.......SSSSSsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss..BOOM! Oh, I guess he was over there in those trees!
