Ammo storage question

[mscoin]

I was searching the internet one late night and I found a bullet storage / carrier that would hold like 4 rounds of large caliber bullets. It had a screw top lid and held the ammo securely so that it wouldn't rattle in your pack. I thought I bookmarked the page, but I guess I didn't. Does anybody have any idea what I am talking about? I know this isnt a very good description, but I think if you saw it you'd know what i am talking about. Any help would be appreciated.

I just buy the 20 round boxes and put styrofoam or some sort of padding on the tips. Works perfect for me.

That's what I have been doing and it works, but in backcountry I only want a few extra rounds, space is a premium and weight a concern.

I put mine in old pill bottles.

Good idea. I haven't found any large enough around the house, but I'd bet i could find something on Amazon. Thanks.

Ammo sleeve or wallet is lightweight and seems like it would do what you want it to

I thought about that too and it would work, light, pack easy. The thing I saw was water tight which would be an added benefit.

Full disclosure, I’ve only used them for .22lr, 9mm and 556.

I vacuum pack four rounds with a small dessicant pack (from a pill bottle) and mark it with a sharpie with the load data and the date. Been carrying one in my pack for several years, only as last resort ammo. That's
in addition to my belt pouch that I carry 10 rounds in.

These work great. You just have to make sure it hasn't shifted and rides up to where it interferes with your bolt when you cycle the action. Lots can go wrong in the heat of the moment when things happen fast. Not a problem if you are not using a bolt action.

I have only used it a few times around home deer hunting, but seems to work well

I have found with long days of a lot of hiking off trail you will almost always lose a round or 2. Lots of options out there. What about a magazine? Even if your rifle doesn't use box magazines you can use one to store 3-10 rounds depending on the size.

I've mostly settled on packing an extra magazine in each hip pocket on my pack. Doesn't rattle and are ready to go in the case of a rodeo

I cut rubber bands from old bike intertubes and use them to band together 3-4 bullets and carry them in my bino harness.

In lieu of the one posted, you could use a Triad Tactical that has internal loops.
