Pre-tubed casing for small batches

Going to try pre-tubed casings for my next sausage batch, sometimes a small batch around 5 lbs.
Looks like you have to load the whole tube unto the stuffer tube
Am I correct that I can salt pack any left over casing and use like a bulk casing the next time?
Since it would be a single strand I wouldn’t have to bother with tangles -

glen You do not have to pack the entire length. I kind of thread it from the tube it comes on to my stuffer tube and cut it (through casing and plastic tube) when I think I have enough. This leaves the remains on the casing tube as it came and I don’t have to worry about it picking up any sausage meat that may spoil. I then shake off as much water as I can and put in sandwich bag coated in kosher salt.
