What do you guys store your ammo in while it is at home? And what do you use when you go to the range to carry it in? Typically I just use the boxes they came in but it sucks carrying 5 or 6, 50 rnd boxes in your hands every time. Just trying to get some ideas.

Thanks!


At Home, a Heavy Duty, lockable Filing Cabinet.

Going to the range, a Standard OD Green, GI Ammo Can. Everything else in a Range Bag...........................................

I use plastic boxes and they go into milk crates. Some of my ammo goes in 50Cal GI ammo cans. I park right at my shooting bench so no carrying it. I also take a 5 gallon pail for spent brass picked up.

I buy Ammo Cans at Gun Shows (One for each Caliber) and then put a desicant in with My Ammo.
The Cans stack neatly and the desicant keeps things dry.

Surplus ammo cans work the best for me. I use MTM plastic cases for all of my reloaded ammo and those MTM cases fit perfect in the Surplus ammo cans. Not to mention the ammo cans come with a rubber gasket to make the lids water tight. I alwys get the .50 cal amm cans these work the best and you can get quite a few of these MTM ammo cases in there


Also I keep my ammo in the same cans weither I am at the range or at home. Makes for a fast trip to the range when I decide to go
