I ordered a plastic Plano 20 ga flip top ammo box from Midway to see if it would be a good way to sort and store my bullet sizing dies. I figured that it would be close based on measurements of 20 ga ammo. The good news is that the box works great for storing clean dies. The fit might be too tight if the dies are coated with lube.

I use a 12 gauge plastic box from Graf's. It allows room for lube-saturated dies. There is also room for a shallow plastic box on top for my top punches.

I like to use empty prescription containers.

There was an earlier thread on this with a lot of good ideas.

Me too....

Been using these for some time. Peel off the label and write the size on it with a fine tip Sharpie.

Berry's 12 ga plastic ammo box - 25 slots, big enough for goopy dies.
Bret beat me to it.
