Getting Organized

My reloading bench was a mess.  Lots of clutter and unsorted items.  If you're like me, you've got a bunch of ammo in those plastic flip top 50 round boxes.  The problem, is you often don't have a full fifty rounds, maybe just a dozen, or maybe three or four individual rounds.  I intend to shoot them as fouling rounds, or when I'm letting a nephew try a rifle.    They simply never seem to get into the range box.

The last time I was surfing at Midway USA, I noticed the little CB boxes.  They come in several sizes and the price is such that they're almost giving them away.  So, I put them in my wish list and when I made an order I included them in the order.  They're white 20 round boxes and come with the styrofoam insert.  The cardboard is fairly sturdy, certainly more substantial than the boxes that factory ammo comes in.

This afternoon I sorted my ammo and all those odd lots of ammo were put in those CB boxes.  Labels applied.  They're all put away.  Now, I've got extra plastic boxes and I've got a handle on all the odd-lot ammo on my bench.  The minimum order on those CB boxes is 25, so I've got plenty for the next go-around.
