+Robespierre Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 $2.79 each at a local surplus store for the smaller (I think 50 cal), and $8 for the real roomy ones. Quote Link to comment

+Kai Team Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 (edited) CheaperThanDirt used to be the cheapest place online, but they're no longer carrying them (edit: at least as of about a month ago - don't know if they'll restock). If you don't have a local Army/Navy surplus store or they're charging more than $5 a can, the next best price is Cabelas - $19.99 for six 30 cal (the smaller ones), plus $11.95 for shipping and handling (they add an extra shipping charge because of bulk/weight). Total for 6 is $31.94, or about $5.32 a piece. Edited June 20, 2005 by Kai Team Quote Link to comment

+sracer Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 Where's a good place to buy ammo boxes cheaply? Quote Link to comment
+FatherPippy Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 Question - where do you live, because I can give you some if you're in North Carolina or Virginia. BUT - if you're somewhere else, I recommend a military surplus store (Army-Navy Store, or the like). I'd also recommend looking into alternatives to Ammo Cans. Tupperware, Lexan Plastic Boxes, anything. Hope this is helpful. Fatherpippy Quote Link to comment

+hikergps Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 I picked up one today for $4.95 at my local farm supply store, might be a good place for you to look. It is in perfect shape with a good gasket to seal the lid. Quote Link to comment

fisherman28 Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 Heh heh Thot can't think of a good come back! This is a little off the subject but O well. Quote Link to comment
+Docapi Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 Hey Thot on your page with cheaperthendirt they have 6 for 20$. On army.net like you said 10 for 22$ so 4 more for 2$ more and cheaperthendirt dosn't sell them any more The 10 for $22 is just the shipping charge. The cans are $3.98 each. So just over 6 bucks apiece. Quote Link to comment
+Night Stalker Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 One of our local cachers bought a truck load of them somewhere and sold them to us a no profit for $2 each. These were all really nice ammo boxes. you might get on Idahogeocachers.org and find that forum thread. Email the individual who actually aquired these and find out where he got them from.
