Metal military style, definitely.

I've been reading that the plastic ones have been leaking in some of the flooding that has been happening this year. :-\

If you like them to look good, too, I like this guy for my labeling needs.

Factory synthetic stock arrived today. PTG bottom metal doesn't fit... The mag well is roughly 1/8" too long for the opening in the stock. Because of the way the stock is made, I'm not sure it can be made to fit without weakening it too much, at least without glass bedding to fill all the molded in voids. I'm probably going to send the mag well back.

The good news is AAC obviously made their barrel to the factory contour, so the barreled action is a decent fit. The barrel doesn't free float but I was planning on a bedding job anyway. Looks like the pillars I ordered are going to be too big in diameter, so I will end up using stainless tubing instead similar to what I did with my other Seven.

I did it on the cheap. Each caliber/gauge has a can, but I printed the labels in an appropriate font, with background color as desired, and used clear 2" tape to attach the labels. The added benefit is that it protects the labels, and it costs almost nothing to change them.

I got some magnetic heater vent covers and cut them to size. Then labeled with a Sharpie.

Even the better/heavier plastic ammo cans I've used will start warping and losing seal if you have a lot of weight in them and pick up by the handle, or if you pack them a little tight side to side. Metal is the way to go unless you find some of those old 20mm boxes that had plastic walls about 1/2" thick.

Thank you. Been meaning to sort and label the ammo collection for some time. Just bought some magnetic vent covers (3 pack at the big orange depot).

It isnt what they know, its that all the bernie sanders voters stayed home, and that among non clinton voters, shes utterly despised.
