Great idea. I use plastic ammo cans with o-ring seals on the lids (most of them are made by Flambeau). Throw some ammo and a desiccant pack in there and I'm good to go. I also have some .50 cal ammo boxes but they are heavier and harder to open than the plastic boxes so they are used mainly for tools and spare parts.

Rusty and old guy like this.
