Is there such a thing as being able to buy boxes for 12 Ga. shot shells? I got a ton of hulls from a local club but nothing to put them in after I reload.
 
There's a thread in (General Firearms Discussion ) . Saying that Costco has a package of 2 ammo cans . One 50 cal and one 30 cal for $ 26.99 . Those might work for you , if you are close enough to a store.
 
You can actually buy new cardboard boxes from Will Bilozir, he brings in Ballistic Products stuff. I have used some in 16 ga, which is hard to find.
However, as mentioned before, you can get all the 12 ga empty boxes you care to take home by dumpster diving at your local gun club.
 
I gave up on "re-boxing" shotshell reloads years ago. Now I just use wad bags to package 100 and throw in a primer package torn apart with the load data on them.

For regular LGC trips, I use two 5 gal. plastic pails. One for reloads, one for empties. You can count out 25, 50 or even 100 in short order.

As an aside, a buddy in the printing business made up his own boxes for reloads ... all nicely printed and pasted just like the factory stuff. He hand-printed the individual load data into the little squares he provided on the box tops. The big label on the front contained his first name and FGR ... short for "F***ing Good Reloads" ! Yes, he was a bit of a character.
 
MTM makes all sorts of shotshell boxes.

Thanks for all the replies!! Born I think that's exactly what I'm looking for...I'm a bit OCD so putting them in a bag isn't an option for me haha!
Merry Christmas everyone!
 
I have one of those MTM boxes for waterfowling. Works great. Keeps ammo much drier when you drop the box in the swamp.
Maybe a bit pricey for trap but whatever floats your boat.
Our club recycles a ton of boxes every trap night. Just call a club and ask when the trap league shoots. bet you'd meet some great people.
