+MrRick Posted April 25, 2004 Posted April 25, 2004 I'm looking at setting up my first cache. What would you recommend for finding ammo containers at a reasonable price? Thanks! Quote
+Lazyboy & Mitey Mite Posted April 25, 2004 Posted April 25, 2004 A surplus store is usually a good bet. Around here someone gets the boxes for free. He just visits the caches that claim to have ammo boxes and then takes the box and leaves all the contents on the ground. That's about as cheap as possible I guess. Quote

Thanks! Surplus stores and gun shows. They go for around $5. Edited April 25, 2004 by frank@floridajeepers.net Quote

+horsegeeks Posted April 26, 2004 Posted April 26, 2004 If they have Northern Tool and Equipment in your are ammo boxes sell for 6.99. Quote
+Desert_Warrior Posted April 26, 2004 Posted April 26, 2004 GUNSHOWS! I usually wait till the end of the show, and offer the dealer $3 each for about 10 of them. I get a good deal, he don't have to load them into the truck and unload them into the shop. Quote

+MrRick Posted April 26, 2004 Author Posted April 26, 2004 Thanks for all the suggestions. I will give them a try. Quote
+Team ARK-ville Posted April 27, 2004 Posted April 27, 2004 I got mine off Ebay for $8.00 with shipping. Search for ammo cans, ammo box or geocaching. Quote
ZippySLC Posted April 28, 2004 Posted April 28, 2004 I have a few left in stock from my last order. I normally charge $6 ea. on my site, but I'll sell them for $5 each here. If anyone is interested, drop me a line at bruset@pboutdoor.com Quote

ZippySLC Posted May 7, 2004 Posted May 7, 2004 It all depends on where they are going to. The ones I have at the moment are slightly larger and heavier than the one in that pic. They weigh about 8lbs each. I plan on ordering some of the smaller "standard" size cans soon. Those will be cheaper to ship. Quote
