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.
I pick up surplus 50 cal boxes for like 5 bucks each at gun shows. Not a big fan of the plastic ones.

Just offering an alternative. I can see where the metal cans could be the best choice for some people.

But I'm just preparing for the aftermath of a relatively short-term disaster. I'm assuming that said disaster will only last 2-3 weeks (maybe months) before some semblance of normalcy returns.
I'm too old and my health is too bad for me to worry about a real SHTF situation.
