Tool Case Alternitive

Recommended Posts

I had a rifle ammo box I wasn't useing and thought I wonder if my tools would fit in there. Sure enough fit perfect. It was a smaller one to hold 50 rounds in. So I bought a 100 round one. Works perfect. Tools fit in holes made for the bullets perfect. I wouls suggest getting the one for large caliber rounds. Another great thing is they are stackable. Big or small ones. I hope this is ok. Here is a link to one that auction ended to give you a better idea of what I am talking about. It's called.

MTM Case Gard™ R-100-10 GREEN Rifle Cartridge Deluxe w/Handle Ammo Case

Good idea, you could use rubber grommets to downsize the holes if need be.

I think they fit great. Now a seeder is small you can put 2 in one hole. But other then that works perfect. I had a 50 round and filled it so I bought a 100 round box to have more room. Getting new tools all the time. The great thing is the box's are cheap but good quality. I thought I would share my find. John

I have one of these and tried some of my tools in it. I found with the recess area of the handle, the box will not close with tools in it, which severely limits the number of tools you can put in it. I also found that you have to modify the tray by cutting the bottom out of the bullet tray.

I didn't have to with mine. Some I had to push down but after that no problems at all. I have about 50+ tools in the smaller one right now. If you look into the holes you will see little nobbies at the bottom all the way around the hole. That is to protect the tip of your bullets from being damaged. I did have a couple that were tight. But after pushing the tool down it never happened again. Works great. Do you have the same brand as the one showed? John

I have the exact same one you linked to. The nobbies are what I had to cut out.

I didn't have to do that with mine but I just bought another one and will see how it works in that one. The one I have is a few years old. They could have changed the tip area a little. I know the one made for large calibers is what you want. I will check this new one out and post what I find. But my first one works great. I'll let you know. John
