    I ordered from Uline, I think - my memory got shot off in the war. Maybe my GF ordered for me. In any case I got the 3x3x2 boxes - they come flat, one must fold them up, and I had to reinforce the bottom with duck tape, as they are tongue-and-slit construction. And I keep handles on my molds, so the boxes are used to store cast boolits:8x8x3 9mm's, 7x7x3 10mm's, and 6x6x3 45's. Rifle boolits generally are only 2 layers...

    Good thing I doubled check the size.
    I was going to order the 3x2x2, but I needed the 4x2x2.
    Found it on evil bay.
    Ordered a 50 pack.

    Boxes finally got here.
    I was beginning to think they got lost.
    They are not the same as used by NOE.
    Much thinner cardboard.
    But it looks like they will work just fine.
    $21.00 for 50 boxes. Shipped.
    Cheapest price I could find.

    You can get these at Harbor Freight and they work great if you want to store them in something that won’t break down over time like cardboard.

    And using these you can store them wet with oil and it won't soak thru and make a mess.

    I seal the molds in a zip bag, lubed, before going in the box.
    Boxes are working out great.
    I like it better than the big gang box
