CCI MiniMag 22LR EMPTY Plastic cases; Are they useful??

[cement head]

Cement Head,
Thanks for the very good heads up on the nutbars out there.

Therefore I will not sell any of this stuff on Kijiji.

Cheers

Your more than welcome my friend. I always do my best to look at the big picture. if your selling something on here people have trader ratings etc. but on Kijiji you never know . a guy who lived a 20 minute drive from here had his truck on Kijiji and he went missing . I went looking for him in ditches due to the fact I had time off work . and it was raining and I'll never forget looking down ravines and under power lines for several hours. you know where I'm going with this story . all you gentlemen take care and again your welcome.

I use mine to store my rapala lures in. Remove the little tray and use the box. They work great and keep you from digging hooks from my fingers.

I use mine for bulk ammo, easier to dispense 5 rounds at a time and taking a sorted variety of different brands of bulk to the range.

+1 for me, too

I use the CCI cases to store my ELEY ammo that my rifle loves. The case the eley comes in is an inferior products vs the CCI. I transfer the rounds over painstakingly and try to keep 500 prepped and ready to go.

Mine usually end up being targets lol

They hold 4 Savage MKII magazines nicely.

I use mine to store caliber specific cleaning jags/copper brushes/bore mops.

If you do some competitive shooting, put your expensive ammo into the mini-mag box.

This. Or even cheap ammo. I'll buy 500 round bricks and take them in the old plastic cases. Saves me from crushing the cardboard box in my bag.

 

[holzmeister]

I too use them for my bulk ammo as well. I prefer them to the boxed ammo as I can get 5 rounds at a time.

^best thing to do when selling on kijiji is meet up with the person somewhere other than your house if possible.

I do this with everything I sell not matter what it is. Thought it was what everyone did.

Not to sound sarcastic but what if you have a set of tires to sell . I'm sure not going to meet someone on a street corner with them . if someone comes by my place to buy something and I don't know them or feel I can trust them they don't enter my home period. I have met people other places to buy stuff be it a parking lot or their home . and if you get a bad feeling from people cut the deal off right away. and have a friend around to keep an eye on things . strength in numbers.

Doesn't matter what I am selling be it tires or playing cards. Never done at my home.

Why don't you meet them in the parking lot of the local cop shop.

The local cop shop here has signs posted that it is for police personnel only so if one was to do a weapon transaction well it would not be a pretty sight. I could always some more boxes.... just saying... a timmies in exchange for a box... just putting it out there

 

[Bart68]

I reload mine with bulk ammo, like others have said it's easier to drop 10 out of one of these than to count ten out of a box.

Also easier to carry around if you need too.

 

[easyrider604]

I'm gonna start retrieving these boxes from the range bin.

 

[kjohn]

haha .. yep salad containers for me too. Only problem is when I go to the indoor range and the RO does a check to see the ammo's not magnetic she laughs and says "these are soooo cute".

The RO checks .22 ammo to see if it is magnetic???? Do they check for radioactivity, too?

A few police stations around here (Lower Mainland, B.C.) have specific areas with camera's just for situations like this to prevent crime.

I saw in the news some police stations have exchange zones for kijiji and such .
