Foam & Cardboard Cartridge Boxes

Any one know where I can purchase the foam & cardboard Cartridge Boxes? Years back I believe Midway carried them but haven't seen any adds. I'm mainly interested in rifle calibers.

Thanks,

Turk

Midway has them. The chart of which calibers is under charts in technical information on the web site under ammo boxes

Why would you want the foam & cardboard boxes? I ask because you're the first person I've encountered that wanted them for reloaded ammo.

Boxes

Midway has 'em, I think they call them CB boxes. Bought a case years ago. They work fine, and I can write the load data on the box instead of messing with labels. Helps to keep track of number of reloads for each brass lot also. I also use them to store prepped brass that has been sorted into lots by weight. Cheap too, and your ammo doesn't rattle around the way it does in plastic boxes.

Guys,

Thanks for the info (Midway). I guess I should of looked at the web site. Haven't ordered from them in quite a few years.

I got boxes from years ago and they worked just fine.

Blades67, I want the foam for cost. I'm getting ready to load up a 1000 ea. of the following 9 Para., 308, 5.56 and couple hundred of 8x57. I don't want loose rounds and they are a whole lot cheaper than the plastic boxes.
