6BR ammo box..?

Thanks to everyone who helped! Lots of good choices mentioned.

I ended up going with the R100 16T after seeing the photo Dusty posted for me. I feel better seeing it with my own eyes...LOL Once I get the boxes in my hands I will order the little woods blocks as shown by urbanrifleman.

Again..I appreciate all of your help.
 
i like this j and j for doggin the foam protects and stops rattle
it is perfect for 6 BR or ppc

so I got the mtm 100, and the wood blocks
BUT
if you do load development and like to keep the brass in as shot groups,
no go.
bought weather stripping foam. 1/2 x 3/4 and lined the top of the 100 rd box, soft enough for bullets, but keeps brass in place
 
I use the MTM 223 100 rd for lighter bullet 6BR varminting. TIGHT fit, bullet down when right side up, but travel/storage with bullet up/upside down.

Those big roomy 100 rounders are very bulky compared to the 223 boxes if your storage or travel space is limited.

The box does not know or care if it is upside down, only we do.

If all you want to do is store brass go with the 223 boxes.

I cant get a br diameter case to go in a 223 box

I can, so can everyone else.

Upside down, shoulder hits dividers, bullet doesn't touch bottom on loaded ammo, packed in like sardines, brass doesn't fall out and get dinged up when empty. MTM RS-100 or similar, cheap and everywhere. Doesn't work with the very compact cases intended for AR mag length like the Midsouth/Frankford 222-223. I guess these days a picture is necessary-
