Absolutely.

I have my basement stuffed with ammo boxes, and my only (so far) cache is a standard .50 cal ammo box.

I bet your basement conceals a bunch of other neat stuff too. I don't know, it just sounds like it. icon_wink.gificon_razz.gif

Not really, but I can't say I have any complains about the price of the ammo boxes.

I am a reservist in the army and went to the nearest barracks and asked around who whas in charge of used ammo containers. Then I asked her politely if I could have some, and she agreed.

 

And for you Swedes: Think creatively. The container for 84mm propelled rocket grenades for Carl Gustav are water proof and you should be able to get them in Sweden (since it is a Bofors weapon).

The other box I handled was a 12 ton truck, which isn't suited any better...


 

That would be one cool cache icon_cool.gif

 

It seems the Swedish armed forces uses the American Browning .50 cal machine gun. The Swedes call it "Tung kulspruta 12.7mm". The ammo boxes for this weapon are the one youo want. Now all you have to do, is find some army people to get them for you.

Sounds like a plan icon_biggrin.gif

 

Each container is actually two separate plastic containers. They can be split into two with a saw.
