Ammo box's for 6mm BR

[Gary C]

The only dumb question is one that is not asked.
I'm looking on Midsouth supplies for ammo boxes for my new 6mm BR.
Naturaly none are listed for this caliber so i'm wounering what you people use.
Possibly one for 22-250?

.22-250 would be a good choice. Purely speculation on my part.

These guy make custom boxes,really nice

I like the boxes from Frankford Arsenal

I like the 50 count Model 512.

For the 100 count, I like the 1009. It's a little taller so I use foam in the lid to help keep shot cases secure.

If you’re using Lapua brass, their box is supplied with a tray that permits it to also be used as a 50 round ammo box. Peterson supplies their brass in an ammo box.

.308, 243 win, or 22-250 storage boxes should work fine. They can be a bit tall but no big deal.

If you buy Peterson or Alpha brass you will get a fully hinges ammo box with your brass.

 

[DocDoc]

RS-S-50 for the .22-250 is the correct size.

I bought a couple from Mid South, Case Gard # RSS-50 for 22-250, they work fine for my 6 BR

I use the MTM RM-100

 

[Bill Norris]

I use the R-100 MTM.

 

[Walt Krafft]

J&J Plastics makes a box specifically for the BR cartridges.

 

[Mark W]

I use an MTM RSS-50 for all things 6 BR derived. They work good and the empties even stay in place if it gets turned over.

 

[6ShotsOr5?]

Most boxes are too tall for these cases so that it's very difficult to grab the empties one at a time. I use the Frankford Arsenal 100 round boxes and then cut 10 foam strips and lay them in the bottom so that the cases sit higher in the box. The Frankford Arsenal boxes have partial openings on two opposite sides of each cartridge compartment so that you can use foam strips. Other ammo boxes have no openings on any sides of the compartments so you would have to use 100 small foam squares instead of 10 foam strips. With the strips it's easy to make them a little wide and then you can just press them down, no adhesive needed.

MTM RSS-50 with clear blue top for viewing and full opening lid with hinges; fits upto 2.50" OAL:

 

[Gary C]

The MTM RS 50 looks like just what i need.
Thanks!

 

[RICK SMITH]

I use the rss 50 for 6br. I put foam in the top of the box. I load at the house and seat bullets at the range or match. Knock on wood, I haven't spilt a single kernel of powder. You just have to watch which foam you use. Some types of foam the powder sticks to.

 

[Gary C]

I did just find a 100 MTM box that i had used for 7mm TCU back in the
long range metalic hand gun days.
Shot a TC contender in production and a 7mm BR XP100 in unlimited.
Both were very accurate.
219 Yards (200 meters) with iron sights unsupported.
Creedmore position.

ammo boxes for 6mm BR, long VLD's

What do you guys shooting the long heavy VLD's in a 6mm BR find works best for ammo boxes? I know Sinclair's sells one that is awful nice, and stout, but I saw one at a match and it wouldn't close w/ 107's or similar. Those little cases just seem to disappear down in a big green MTM 100rd case...
