Plastic Ammo boxes for 6BR

I am new to the 6 br. I have a bunch of plastic ammo boxes I use with different rounds, but, nothing I have seems to work with the 6 br. My 308 boxes fit the loaded ammo, but, the plastic molded shell "squares" come exactly to the top of my 6br cases. This means that I either need a knife point or a q-tip to pull a single case to look at a primer.

Does anybody make a 50 round ammo box that will hold a full length 6 Norma BR and still let me reach an expended case with my fingers?

This is not the end of the world, just aggravating.
thanks rc
 
The MTM boxes don't work but these do.... perfectly, there new! and a cool camo color, if you notice the lid is thicker than the base!

Must be the first week of the month 'cause that's about how often this question comes up.

Frankford Arsenal 512 box is made for BR cartridges. They won't fall out of their cell if you drop the box as long as the lid is closed. The J&J will let the fired brass in the middle get mixed up. The lid on the Frankford Arsenal will close with 108's seated long. You can grab a fired case easily. The J&J's I had cracked and split. I have a dozen or more J&J's you can have if you pick them up.

Midway - $27 for ten - they work

These work well.
 
I use the MTM R-50 boxes. They do work, you have to check on the back side to make sure that the box you have works with what you want to store in them. The ones I have list it as 7mm BR as well as about 20 other cartridges(.22-250, .220 russian, 22 sav HP, .224 weatherby, 6mm ppc, 7mmbr, 30 rem, etc...).
 
I use the MTM 50 boxes with no real problem. Empty and neck down sometimes the back corner cases can be a little more difficult to get out, but still works.

Then depending on my last project I generally have finger nails. If you run out of fingers with nails then could be a problem...
 
it sucks a little......okay a lot....i cut 1/2 in. dowel rod about 1/2 in long (suck part) and put them in the bottom of the box as spacers
