J & J Ammo Boxes for BR and PPC Cartridges
Many readers have asked, “Is there an ammo case that holds BR and PPC cases securely without a lot of extra space?” Yes, the J & J BR-100 Ammo Case fits BR-sized cases just right, and costs just $4.38. Available in semi-transparent Blue, Red, White, Smoke, and Camo, you can purchase different-colored cases to suit different loads. Or keep your match ammo in one color case, and your varmint ammo in another color box.
The J & J cases aren’t your only option of course. Many folks use the large green/red MTM 100-round ammo boxes for transporting 6BR and 6PPC ammo. The big MTM boxes work fine with loaded rounds, but not so great with fired cases. If you tip the MTM box on its side, the empties can spill out. That’s frustrating if you’ve meticulously sorted your cases. You can put a layer of foam over the empty brass to avoid the problem, but the J & J cases are a cheaper, more compact solution. J & J’s 100-round BR-100 ammo case has tighter vertical clearance, so your empties won’t come out of their slots if the case tips over or is stacked upside down.
In addition to the BR-100 case, varminters who need to carry large numbers of loaded rounds should check out J & J’s 175-round Rifle Ammo Case. This foam-lined ammo transporter, item LR-175-2, costs $16.54 and is the largest-capacity ammo case we’ve found. For more info go to JandJProducts.Com.
The J&J cases are nice for the 6BR but as your barrel throat wears and you seat your 105/107gr bullets longer, the J&J ‘headspace’ is too tight and you will not be able to close the lid.
MTM makes two perfect ammo cases for the BR and PPC cases. The RSS-50 has always been the Benchrest shooters favorite. Long enough for competion loads and won’t spill empties. The new case that has alot of shooters switching to is the RSLD-50. The slots are way wider than they need to be and with a lower rib height makes it easy for a guy with big hands to get a round out easy. I buy there foam liner kit so the bullets won’t fall out empty. MTM been making plastic ammo boxes in Dayton Ohio for over 40 years. You can see them at link below.
