Do you use glass vials for preloads?

[P1ZombieKiller]

if you do, how do you transport them to the matches?
Looking for some ideas.

No glass but I have plastic vials 4 and 10 ml

Plastic as well. I bought from Amazon and they came with varying color tops in a "ammo box-type" case for easy transport.
Mostly have used these for doing load testing at the range, as my V3 isn't "road ready".

I like that idea versus preloading rounds that may need to be pulled down.

Why not just load at the range.?

It just helps eliminate me bringing my chargemaster.
With me mainly shooting 30br, I dont need to change loads, just reload.

I do, and I use a 12 gauge mtm ammo box for transport. A piece of sheet foam over the vials keeps the snug and safe.

This is what I am looking for, except does it only hold 25?

Range is only 3 miles from the house, I need to set up a dedicated range loading setup

How do you transport it? Plastic bags?

Mine fit in a 100 rnd MTM box

Have used them for years. Great for tuning or have some extras to throw together if something wild happens over a day/weekend.

50 round with a carry handle.

Which caliber case? 223 will be to small.
308 would have too tall walls? Right?

They should fit in a plastic ammo box without issue.
I just looked on Amazon for the ones I use and apparently the only ones like them are 2ml instead of 5ml.

 

[Longrangelefty]

They fit in a R-100 series case-gard.

Yes, plastic ziploc bags are more manageable for me if I'm testing couple different powders and different lots of powder but I prefer to bring my scale and trickler with a powerpack and drop charges at the firing line.

I uses 100 rd MTM box with plastic tubes for load development, works fine. I preload for matches. Small loading block , funnel, Wilson seating die and pre prepped cases and I am good. Oh, my notebook and pencil for that rifle.

It’s really not that difficult.
That is one thing that Short Range Benchrest Shooters seem to do as a matter of course that not many other Disciplines have caught on to.

At the TackDriver, it is not uncommon for people, even shooters from other Disciplines, to be amazed at the Short Range Shooters all cleaning and loading after each target.
