    Sized and powder coated bullets go in empty plastic powder jars. I peel the label off and hot glue a sample bullet to the top of the lid. I also tape a note with hardness test and alloy inside of the lid.

    Unlubed bullets go in soup, coffee or food cans. Lubed bullets go in plastic containers like Gladware.

    Called bits and bolts container. A plastic container that holds 6 to 8 lbs of 45 or 38 bullets. And they stack, a great handy space saver

    Anything and everything. From old 500rd commercial cast bullet boxes, 1lb Folgers coffee "cans", nothing wrong with Folgers. I'll drink about any kind of Coffee as long as it ain't flavored, k-cup or Starbucks.
    Made strong and Black.

    My Wife buys me screw on lid plastic jars and 4 packs of plastic box's 4"x4"x3". Work well for small lots and are just heavy enough for what's left of my hand strength.
    And anything that will work.
    I HATE auto-correct

    Happiness is a Warm GUN & more ammo to shoot in it.

    My Experience and My Opinion, are just that, Mine.

    Very interesting, Best suggestion is to label everything as several have stated. A good strong cardboard box is hard to beat, DD

    Bama had a great idea with the bits and bolts containers. I got a set, and two containers stacked on top of each other hold as many boolets as the old plastic Folger's coffee tubs I was using and take up a lot less space

    I love them Nestle Quick containers for my powder coat applications!!! The large size provides extra surface area and IMHO works best!

    Heavy freezer bags. Fold the top down 3-4 times and staple it.

    I've been saving them awhile. Originally was saving them to use as targets. A JIF jar of tannerrite makes a nice "boom".
