Check out the "neat lookin' thing", as my late wife used to call these goodies I would pick up at the gun shows.
Early .22 bullet box to use on the range.

Found this to go in my antique ammo display, filled it with Western SuperX .22 long ammo.

Awfully well made. Cabinet grade I'd say.

That doesn't look like the ChiCom crap they send members now.

We have been going again as shows have said the heck with it and reopened. Went this weekend and found a similar box with no markings, but it was full of 44-40 brass. It was not a cool as your, but it did get my attention.

The sad thing... 225 or so tables and not a single jug of powder. Remington 7 1/2 BR primers were $60/k. Heard several vendors whining about lack of sales with boxes of factory 12 gauge loads at $30-40 and home built AR's without high end parts at $750 to $850. I think the deal of the day was either the unfired S&W Anniversary 45 LC, complete, at $1500 or the 43 Spanish rolling block carbine with a bright shiny bore at $600. I also got to handle the first 2.7mm Kolibri round that I have ever seen. Now that is one that I would not want to load! Centerfire with a primer in the .5mm to .75mm diameter range and a 3 grain bullet! :)
