Haul gadget around (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

loot

'haul' is the definition.
(both can mean stolen goods)

'gadget around' is the wordplay.
'gadget' becomes 'tool'.
'around' says the letters should be written in reverse.
'tool' in reverse letter order is 'LOOT'.

(Other definitions for loot that I've seen before include "Booty, spoils" , "Booty; sack" , "Pillage; money" , "Orton play; money" , "Steal (goods); money" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
