G'day all,
Looking for an answer for 2 rounds now that are getting beyond a joke for ammo transportation.
Normally, I hunt with a MTM 20 round flip top belt carrier ammo box in my pack. Have done so for years with 270Bee, 300WM, 338WM & 264WM.
Now my dilemma has reached into 300/340/375Bee and 7STW. None of these fit the 20 round MTM boxes and I have searched to no end fixing a suitable 20 round box with a snap on close function.
I have always had to use rifle butt sleeve ammo carriers for my 338-416 Rigby Improved 45° due to it's stupid long length of 4.25". My 338 Edge rounds got damaged tips on quite a few trips due to their length, trying to avoid this if I can.
Running ABLR bullets and the tips seem fragile in comparison to regular Accubonds.

I would prefer something different as the tips on these other rounds are not solid brass and may get damaged in my pack.

Does anyone have a good solution for this dilemma?

Cheers.
 
What about some of these companies that make custom foam inserts for ammo cans? Make a 420rnd 556 ammo can into a 50 round box!

I made a 50 round count and 100 round count for my 338-416 Rigby Improved, but they don't have a lid and rattle around something shocking on the way to a hunt or match.

Cheers.
 
Look at MTM RF22-LM,BUF-10-70, or BMG-10 slip-top. Also look at MTM H50-XL Deluxe comes with bullet protector 50 rd. box with lid. MTMCASE-GARD.com , hope something will fit.
I have the BUFF-10 for my 416 Rigby, my 338-416 Rigby Improved doesn't fit.
I have the H-50 XL and they do not fit.

Feenix has put me into the Unknown Munitiins boxes. When I have the funds, as we are again in LOCKDOWN here. I will order a few of these.
Need to fit a few cases now, 300RUM, 7STW & 338-416/33XC. My 300/340/375 Bee will probably need a new home too.

Cheers.
 
These may help
