One thing I learned the hard way. The bigger the box, the more you can fit inside. The more inside the more difficult it is to handle and the heavier that SOB is to carry! :help:

Youre absolutely right, JB. I move around frequently, and carry my reloading stuff with me. Those cans come in handy, but they can be challenging to an old man who carries bullet casting lead in them. Empty shell cases and other stuff is easier, of course.

Ammo cans get reused all the time for non ammunition items like fuses, flares, etc as long as they pass inspection. I've seen cans repainted with new ammo nomenclature for reissued ammo like WW2 .50 used for range fire. It doesn't make sense to ship cans back from overseas, they are too bulky and they take up too much space. Cheaper to dump 'em.

Try AmmoCans.net. They have some in stock right now, but not for long the way things are going right now!
